This Bulletin has been revised to add the 2015-2018 Model Years. Please discard Corporate
Bulletin Number 10-07-29-001B.
The 6-Speed manual transaxle (RPOs MF3, MR5,
MR6, MZ0, MZ4, MZU) current service strategy for
transmissions requiring internal repairs (ie:
synchronizer, gear or bearing replacement) is to
replace the unit as an assembly. These transmissions
should not be disassembled at the dealer to determine
root cause. For dealers required to contact the PQC for
replacement authorization, please have replacement
estimate including transmission assembly cost and
labor prior to calling.
GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these
technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper
service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a
job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your
vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the
information.
