| Subject: | Service Manual Update for VT25E (Vti) Transmission Fluid Pump
Pressure Relief Valve |
| Models: | 2002-2003 VUE and 2003 ION Vehicles |
| with VT25E (Vti)
Transaxle (RPO M75/M16) |
Purpose:
The pressure relief valve located on the automatic transaxle fluid pump assembly
is no longer a serviceable component and should NOT be removed from the pump assembly
at any time. The relief valve is only available as part of the complete pump assembly.
If the relief valve is removed for any reason, the pump MUST be replaced.
The Fluid Pump Disassemble and Assemble Procedures in the 2002-2003 VUE
and 2003 ION Transaxle Service Manuals have illustrations that incorrectly show the
relief valve removed and include steps to remove the valve. Please obtain these service
manuals and update the Fluid Pump Disassemble and Assemble Procedures with this new
information.
Future Service Stall System SI CD releases will include these service manual
updates.
