Toyota RAV4 Transmission Issue by Isokiscool(op): 9:05pm On Nov 28, 2024
I have a 2009 Toyota RAV4,2wheel drive, 4plug but lately I just discovered that the gear selection from gear 1 to 2 makes a very loud noise and delay.The gear box is U241E.Is it a 10pin or 13pin gear box?How much can I get a replacement just in case it stops working?I will really appreciate it I can get your responses please

Normally you should scan and get codes, the codes will determine what is wrong and what to do next whether repair or replace transmission.

For context
1. How long have you been using the vehicle trouble free?
2. Was it naija used or direct tokunbo
3. Did you change the transmission fluid, if yes what fluid and quantity was used to replace.
4. Take the transmission Guage if it has one put a drop of the fluid on a white tissue or your headlamp let's see if it is pink or blackish.

From online research, the DSL solenoid was causing the issue but you didn't tell us what code as others had shudder.

Some did the drain and refill twice and the issue went away.

Next they opened the pan and changed the DSL solenoid but care full with the wiring also for testing the DSL it is adviced you already have a replacement on ground before attempting to change or check. It is supposed to read 10 to 11ohms, any digression means it is faulty.

If after all these no long time relieve, prepare to change the whole transmission better and safer
