Just as the title says, 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan. 48k miles. 4 spd auto w/ the 3.3l engine.

What tranny is in this van (A-???)

Is changing the fluid and filter "basically" the same as doing it on a A-413 type of tranny? (Dropping the pan, draining fluid, replace the filter, re-install pan with RTV) Does that sound about right?

Also, any tips on "how to" adjust the bands?

Thanks!
Paul

It should be the A604 trans. No bands to adjust, just drop the pan, change filter, install pan gasket-NO RTV and refill with +4 fluid.

No bands? That's a relief, sort of...I was hoping there would be so I could get the experience of adjusting them for when I need to do the 600's bands...Oh well, at least no RTV to deal with.

Thanks Simon!
