Are you having a problem with the transmission?
That TSB is a new release and even some of the dealers don't have it yet.
Sorry if I came off wrong. I like to know why folks are looking for certain TSBs, as sometimes the one they think they need, isn't. But other ones may be.
Plus, ones like that can be a bugger to come up with.
This is the only one I could find remotely related to your problem.
I wonder if you can help me get Chrysler TSB 19-002-04 (clicking noise in steering column)? The column in my 2002 Dodge Neon was already replaced in February under warranty because of this problem. That seemed to help for a while, but now the new column is starting to click too - and I'm out of warranty. It seems that the TSB was issued in April. I'd very much like to know what the problem is really about, and if it is safety related. Many thanks in advance.
any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Title:
STEERING RACK END NOISE
Models:
'98- '99 Corolla
TSB Update Notice :The information contained in this TSB updates ST001-00 dated January 28, 2000. Revised text is shown with asterisks and underlined.
Introduction
Some 1998 - 1999 model year Corolla vehicles may experience a squeaking noise from the front suspension. To improve this condition, production parts have been changed.
Power steering rack end sub-assembly.
Part numbers can be obtained from your dealer.
It is in a pdf file and some versions may not open it. If it comes up blank, let me know.
Dealer confirmed that it needs the intermediate steering shaft. Is there such a thing as a "silent recall" on this repair? Any chance a letter to GMC customer service would help me?
If there is no special "silent recall" deal on this; I guess I'll order the part myself and have my local independant shop do the fix.
Is the steering shaft grease job the kind of repair that most independant shops would be familiar with; or is it a GM dealer type job?
Any repairs on the TSB would be subject to your cost and not under warranty.

I am taking my 2003 Outlander (AWD) in for service Monday. It has a strange vibration (noise) that seems to be coming from the exhaust while accelerating. I have inspected the exhauset myself, and do not see anything that is loose. The Edmunds site shows a TSB 03-15-002 for this particular vehicle, that is labled as "Strnage exhaust noise under acceleration". I was wondering if anyone had any info on this TSB (cause, corrective action, etc...), so I will be a little better armed when I take it in on Monday. Thanks
earlier message:
After replacing the alternator and a fairly new battery Jeep still had the same problem of not charging. An auto electric shop diagnosed the pcm as the problem and the price for one is quite expensive. As a fix he suggested we could install an external voltage regulator but he would not provide any help to how I would install it. The voltage regulator is a Transpo 2 plug electronic type. I have read my Hanes book but it was of no help. Any help, suggestions or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
As stated in the summary, owner's and service manuals for my vehicle (and similar) do not show or refer to axle/differential service intervals. GM does not usually number service bulletins that way and I've been unable to find any reliable information. Hopefully, someone can help.
Here is what I got when I used the search on GM's information system.
Sorry, No documents matched the number: 3001
Here is all I came up with on the maintenance schedule from GM's information.......
Add fluid as needed. A fluid loss could indicate a problem; repair as needed. Check vent hose at transfer case for kinks and proper installation.
DIFFERENTIAL FLUID
FRONT AXLE (FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE)
SAE 80W-90 Axle Lubricant (GM Part No. U.S. 1052271, in Canada 10950849).
FRONT AXLE (ALL-WHEEL DRIVE)
SAE 75W-90 Synthetic Axle Lubricant (GM Part No. U.S. 12378261, in Canada 10953455) meeting GM Specification 9986115.
REAR AXLE
SAE 75W-90 Synthetic Axle Lubricant (GM Part No. U.S. 12378261, in Canada 10953455) meeting GM Specification 9986115.
REAR AXLE (STEERABLE)
Synthetic Axle Lubricant; use only GM Part No. U.S. 12378557, in Canada 88901362.Do not add friction modifier.
DRIVE AXLE FLUID CAPACITIES
Front Drive Axle (8.25") 1.40 liters (1.48 quarts)
Front Drive Axle (9.25") 1.53 liters (1.62 quarts)
Rear Drive Axle (8.6") 2.03 liters (2.15 quarts)
Rear Drive Axle (9.5") 2.6 liters (2.75 quarts)
Rear Drive Axle (10.5") 2.6 liters (2.75 quarts)
Rear Drive Axle (11.5") 3.62 liters (3.83 quarts)
NOTE: ALL capacity specifications are approximate. When replacing or adding fluids, fill to the recommended level and recheck fluid level.
If they can provide the GM document number, I can get the info.
Does anyone has a copy of TSB (40I) for 2004 Toyota Sienna regarding radiator leak? Thanks.

A TSB that has just been released a few days ago and you are asking for it?
Not surprising, I couldn't find any TSB for transmission lag. The latest TSB I find for the Lexus was released April 1, 2005. But it wasn't for the transmission.
Do you have a TSB number?
Mostly informational TSBs.

March 15, 2005 is the newset TSB I can find.
These TSBs were released in March for all Lexus.
04-05 ES330 Engine Controls - MIL ON and or DTC P0346 Set
98-05 LX470 Exhaust System - Tailpipe Joint Clamp Installation
04-05 RX330 Fuel System - Underhood Ticking Noise at Idle

So I am still confused: is there a new TSB for the transmission fix in 2005 Lexus ES330 or not?

Toyota has announced computer software upgrades that it says should help eliminate hesitation problems in five-speed automatic transmissions in 2002 to 2005 models, a company spokesman said. The upgrades produce "incremental improvement in shift quality," spokesman Wade Hoyt said. The problem may still exist for some owners, and the company continues to work on other fixes, he added.
If you had the number, I might be able to come up with something.
But really, if it is a 2005, it is under warranty and since the newspaper has it in it, then the dealer should have the bulletin.
The dealer here couldn't find anything.
Here is what I found after much of digging: April 1st Lexus transmission TSB. Looks like it is a recent update to the TSB issued in August 2003. Since the update refers to the 2005 Lexus ES330 model as applicable, I'll have it done.
Are you able to get the PDF file or fulltext for the following TSB?
