SRTA ADVANTAGES:

^ A SRTA is the product of a highly successful, customer satisfaction driven program providing the technician with a service alternative when addressing diagnostic and overhaul concerns.

^ All SRTA units are designed and remanufactured to current engineering specifications.

^ GMSPO Parts Distribution Centers are committed to 48 hour maximum delivery time for all SRTA models, with no VIP charges.

IN THE INTEREST OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION, SRTA MODELS SHOULD ONLY BE CONSIDERED WHEN THE PROJECTED COST OF REPAIR EXCEEDS THE COST OF A SRTA REPLACEMENT.

SERVICE NOTE:

Cooler flushing MUST be performed whenever a transmission/transaxle is removed for service. It is essential to flush the cooler after SRTA installation, major overhaul, in any case of pump or torque converter replacement, or when fluid contamination is suspected. Time allowance has been added to operation K7000 (Transmission Removal and Replacement) for 1987 through 1990 models. Add 0.6 hours to Removal and Replacement allowances for 1982 through 1986 models.
