Trans is removed from vehicle, valve body is removed from trans, pump comes out from front after bell housing.

If it's really that easy I'm doing that to.

So if I just change the fluid/filter should I also pull the valve body and clean it to?

Ok well I change fluid,filter,and solenoids but now here is the problem. The car drives but feels like only 1,2 and overdrive is working and if I manual shift it the trans make a thump like its dropping in to that gear.

Any thoughts about this?
