It's All About the Build
Cole is there a TSB for a 2012 using unusual amounts of oil? Say 2 quarts every 1500 miles of normal use.
Nope

when you can format your email address for me I'll send you the TSB
I'm not in the habit of posting my email address on a public forum. I posted it that way so that someone cannot search my personal address. Sorry if you thought I was being funny. I thought you would be able to understand it. I'll pm it to you.
This isn't craigslist... Mine is [email protected]...........
Does anyone know why, on the TSB 11-11-11, they list 4 part numbers for the solenoids, but only talk about replacing 3 solenoids?
"2. Replace the three (3) normally high solenoids.
Line pressure control (LPC), C35R Direct
Clutch (SSB) and the C456 Overdrive-Low
Reverse (SSD) solenoids. Refer to WSM,
Section 307-01B."
"AL3Z-7G383-K Shift Solenoid (Band 2)
AL3Z-7G383-L Shift Solenoid (Band 3)
AL3Z-7G383-M Shift Solenoid (Band 4)
AL3Z-7G383-N Shift Solenoid (Band 5)"

You plan on doing the replacement yourself?
Yes. It looks like it's a pretty straight forward job.
Drop the pan and filter, drop the "valve body", remove old solenoids, insert new solenoids, and then reinstall the parts.
So there are March cars, thanks. I didn't think they had any until April.
