42rle

Hey all. I am about to start building my LJ into something usable for on and off road. Much like most everyone, this is also my daily driver. Considerations for things like driving many miles each day/month are real for me but not be all end all limiting factors. I want the Jeep to run solid...

My PCM is showing P0106. That means that the next issue is with my 42LE transmission shifting. No new are available from MOPAR until estimated 12/31/2018. When ever I am told end of the year I get nervous. Also that costs 999.99. Ouch. Looked for a rebuilt. Nope none available. Finally...

So i have a 2006 X with an auto. On the way to work this morning the check engine light came took it to my local parts store to have the codes checked. This is what it showed. Gas cap loose.( not worried about this one.) P0218 high temperature operation activated P0714 transmission temperature...

Could use some help please 2006 LJ 137k miles. 42RLE Repaired normal stuff ( fuel pump, catalytics, a/c compressor and all lines). But, this week trans gets “stuck” in second and will overheat and go into limp home. Now, if I force it in first by shifting or I have stopped completely and then...

I have a 2006 Unlimited with a automatic trans that has started to shift hard from 1st gear into 2nd. It happens when the jeep is typically cold and it only happens once. I checked the transmission fluid and it was very low at normal operating temps and didn't register on the dipstick. I slowly...

Hello! I have an 06' TJ with the 42rle in it. I've got 125,000 miles on the jeep and it runs like a top. The only issue is that I'm almost positive my transmission has finally bit the dust. Fluid and filter were done at 120,000 and my computer is good. Just topped the fluid off because it was a...

My coworker and I have been discussing the risk of replace (not flush) the 42rle fluid on his LJ that has more than 100, 000 miles on it and chances are that the same never has serviced. I know the subject is quite conflictive due the different experiences, myths, mentality and/or knowledge, but...

Today while driving home a random check engine light can on. Nothing odd to be noted while driving at all. Scanned with my obd reader and it says P0700 & P0740 The P0740 is the main code. It reads tcc out of range. Any ideas/help would be great. The transmission shifts fine and has no issues...

Ok so I posted images the other day of what I think are trans cooling lines leaking. Possibly unrelated: last time I had issues with missing 2nd gear I was low on fluid. My son decided to add fluid for me (it may be over full as I checked it and it was over the cold full mark) I’m thinking I...

This flush was done on a 32RH transmission, but the procedure should be mostly the same for a 30RH and 42RLE transmission as well. I wanted to replace the filter and get all the fluid out of the torque converter. So I thought I would give it a try. There were some questions I had, but I was...

I've got a 2004 TJ with a 4.0 & 42RLE. About a month ago I replaced the original 42rle at 125k with a reman unit from Powertrain Solutions. I also added a Derale TJ transmission cooler to keep things cool and bypassed the radiator cooler as per the reman companies request. Most of the time the...

Before I install a basic tranny cooler , i just have 1 question. Will i see lower temps at low speed offroading. I just can't see it myself. I really don't want the high dollar unit that you mount under the vehicle with fan.

Hello everyone, new to this fourm. I drive an 04 with the 4.0 currently have the 42rle transmission going to swap it to the nv3550. Just want to get some info if any of you know if the nv3550 bell housing bolt pattern the same as the 42rle if is a direct bolt on to the engine or if i need an...

Auto trans. Stuck in reverse. Jeep won't start because it's in reverse. Solution? Took the shifter cover off and found a bolt that had left my cup holder and worked it's way under the shifter. I think it jammed when shifting. Removed the bolt and shifter can now move, but it's stuck in reverse...

Have not had her long but she just turned 124,500 miles on her, a 2005 Wrangler X. New wheels, tires, soft top, changed All fluids, and now the dang Tranny is going out. Just my luck.. Spent all my money, and cannot find anybody that will rebuild it. New reman tranny is 2100.00 and a new from...

I have an automatic transmission and when it is cold or sets for awhile, I start it up and when I take off and it shifts for the first time, it kicks real hard and sometimes does it two or three times when I stop and pull out again. Jeep Wrangler 65th anniversary edition with a v6

With a recent series of serious overheating incidents while offroading and towing my little pop-up trailer, I decided to hasten my plans to install an auxiliary transmission cooler for my 42RLE automatic transmission. I had added one to my previous TJ that had the more robust 32RH, but Jeep’s...
