Changing T6 transmission while in car

Post by dwmcqueen »

I have a 2004 that lacks all gears but reverse and first, so I suspect the transmission needs to be rebuilt. Looking thru all the forums about removing the engine to get at the transmission, I came across this post - viewtopic.php?f=11&t=63865#p329698

Would this method work on the T6? It would save some effort on full engine removal.

The links (except the Youtube video) are about rebuilding the transmission. Most methods I have seen involve removing the engine and transmission, but not working on it while it is in the car (so no engine removal). That is the method I am curious about - whether the transmission can be worked on while it remains in the car.
