CHRYSLER 42RE
"BUZZING" NOISE IN REVERSE

COMPLAINT: Some vehicles equipped with the 42RE transmission may exhibit a "buzzing" noise while the
manual selector lever is in the Reverse position.

CAUSE: The cause may be, the Pressure Regulator Valve buzzing because of a partially clogged main
filter, or may be the PR valve itself.

CORRECTION: First install a brass "Screen" in place of the felt media filter in the bottom pan, as shown in
Figure 1. If this does not cure the condition, replace the aluminum PR valve in the valve
body with the previous design steel PR valve (See Figure 2), available under OEM part
number 4130169
