RE: TSB
There is a Tsb for a dipstick tube leaking. Here is the TSBTHIS BULLETIN SUPERSEDES SERVICE BULLETIN 21-011-05 REV A, DATED JULY
14, 2005, WHICH SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM YOUR FILES. THIS IS A COMPLETE
REVISION AND NO ASTERISKS HAVE BEEN USED TO HIGHLIGHT REVISIONS.
SUBJECT:
Dipstick Tube Seal May Leak Causing ATF Contamination Or Transmission Shudder/Buzz
OVERVIEW:
This bulletin involves tests to be performed on the transmission to determine the integrity
of the transmission oil fill tube seal. Dependent upon test results: the oil tube seal will
require replacement, the transmission may require a flush procedure, and/or the
transmission torque converter may require replacement.
MODELS:
2005 - 2006 (LX/LE) 300/Magnum/Charger
NOTE: This bulletin applies to LX/LE vehicles equipped with a NAG1 transmission
(sales code DGJ) that were built prior to December 2005 with a
TRANSMISSION build date of July 08, 2005.
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
Water may leak past the transmission oil fill tube (dipstick tube) seal. Dependent upon the
amount of water accumulation in the transmission oil, the customer may experience a
transmission shudder vibration and/or an audible high frequency buzz-like sound. The
shudder vibration or buzz-like sound may be most noticeable during light acceleration
where partial application of the torque converter clutch (TCC) in 3rd, 4th, or 5th gear
occurs.
The shudder/buzz condition may be due to the torque converter clutch and a “stick-slip”
condition caused by contaminated transmission oil/fluid. The transmission fluid
contamination may be caused by water intrusion past the transmission fill tube seal.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Determine if the original transmission fill tube seal has been previously replaced with
fill tube seal p/n 05189087AA (or later).
2. Has the transmission oil fill tube seal been replaced with p/n 05189087AA (or later)?
a. If YES >> STOP. This bulletin does not apply. Further diagnosis is required.
b. If NO >> Proceed to the next step.
