Long past due update, it was the wrong U-Connect unit, the second one that they ordered works fine.
BIGTSR:
Do you still have the links to the CVT2 transmissions that you sent me? My hard drive crashed around Christmas and I lost all of my important emails with info like that in them.
Thanks,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy sorry to hear abt the harddrive frustrating you.
I checked my Outlook links but can't find any of the ones
for the cvt,I do however have some .pdf files on the unit
which I could send you via email attachments if you PM
me your email address.If you google "jatco+dodge+cvt"
there is also a lot of info.
I found the link on a cd where I save all the Caliber info,
had to blow the dust off but here it is:

2008 cvt pdf pls
This CVT isn't new technology;
in fact, the unit is similar to the CVT
found in many Nissans since 2002.
It all begins with the basics, and
nothing gets more basic than checking
fluid, right? The CVT uses a special
fluid, designated CVTF+4, which
is specifically designed for the CVT.
According to DaimlerChrysler, the unit
requires this special fluid because of the
“higher pressure, special metal alloys,
and the critical need to prevent belt
slippage.” For ID purposes, the fluid is
green and, according to the manufacturer,
even a small amount of regular ATF
will cause severe damage to the CVT.
The one-quart bottle is part number
05191184AA and the five-gallon jug is
part number 05191185AA.
The fluid actually has a rubber ingredient in it to
insure that belt slippage due to torque is minimized.
If you are interested I have several articles on the Jatco/Chrysler
CVT they are in Adobe .pdf format pm me with your email address
and I'll fire them off.If you want the parts/service manual I would suggest
you log on to caliberforumz dot com they are availiable there as well as
all the TSBs.
