thanks Greg. I agree, the whole key here is verifying that the hole size is the same as this or some other application. Once we get there the possibilities should open up.

Well I just ordered in a dipstick seal for the 6L90e transmission to compare to the 4L80e seal we have in stock. So I will know early next week.
Thanks Greg! That's excellent!Originally Posted by Greg@PacePerformance.com
That seal come in yet Greg?
No it didn't arrive today so I expect it to be here tomorrow.
OK, thanks!
FWIW I checked out the A6 tranny in the Holden VE range here today.....yeah as expected, no dipstick arrangement. "Filled for Life" was a term used. Some special super dooper Dextron 8 or something was the fluid used the guy said. $$$$$
Sorry for the delay. I was off yesterday.
The green one is the 6L85e trans dipstick seal and the black one is the 4L80e seal. You can see without even measuring that the OD is different between the two.
Let me know if there is any other questions anyone may have.
Shit. What can we do now? I'm at the point where I'll have one fabricated if I have to.
I believe it's 6 and it's like 15 bucks a quart!
I have NO issues with no dipstick! I have none on my Vue and it hasn't bothered me. Hell I've never checked it either...
