62TE Planetary 2007, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the 62TE. Ships fast from the USA.
This remanufactured planetary is for the 2007 Chrysler 62TE, the first year of the six-speed. That year it went into the JS Chrysler Sebring sedan and convertible with the 3.5L V6 and the CS Chrysler Pacifica with the 4.0L V6, before it spread to the minivans and the Journey. First-year units now have a lot of miles on them, and a worn gearset is a common find once one is apart: growling pinions, a carrier with loose pins, or splines starting to roll over. This part puts a reconditioned gearset back in for a fraction of a new one.
Chrysler built the 62TE by taking the 41TE four-speed and splitting the transfer and pinion drive with an underdrive and direct clutch, so the transaxle can send a second ratio to the final drive. The four-speed's front and rear planetary sets stay on the main centerline. The new part is the underdrive compounder on the transfer shaft, which has its own planetary set along with a low clutch, a direct clutch and an overrunning sprag.
Put together, the two sections make seven forward ratios. The seventh is 4th prime, a 1.573 ratio used only on a 6-4 kickdown so the transaxle avoids a double swap of clutches. The 2-3, 3-2 and 4-2 shifts are double swaps, timed within about 40-70 milliseconds, so a gearset that drags or binds shows up as shift feel problems as well as noise.
Rule out the cheaper faults first. On a 2007 unit that means checking the fluid level and condition, the TCC solenoid and the solenoid pack, which our 62TE shift solenoid guide walks through. Once the unit is on the bench, remove the valve body and the compounder feed tubes, then pull the compounder; ATRA shows the Miller 9908 tool or an equivalent puller makes that easier. Inspect the main centerline gearsets too, since first-year units can wear both. Rock each pinion for end play, spin it for roughness, and check the carrier and sun gear splines. Our 62TE common problems guide explains which faults come from the compounder and which come from the front of the unit.
This gearset is listed for the 2007 model year only. The early 62TE used different parts than later units in several places, and Chrysler updated the compounder during production, so compare the photo with your old part, matching the shaft splines, gear count and carrier shape. Your transaxle tag shows the part number and revision level, and if you send us that with your VIN we will confirm the match. If you have a 2011 or later van, Journey or 200, use the 62TE planetary for 2011-2020 instead. All our 62TE parts are on the 62TE collection page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
ATRA lists the 2007 launch applications as the JS Sebring sedan and convertible with the 3.5L V6 and the CS Pacifica with the 4.0L V6. Other 2007 models used four-speed transaxles, so check your transaxle tag or send us your VIN.
Do not assume it will. Chrysler revised compounder parts during production, and this one is listed for 2007. For 2011 and later units we carry a separate 62TE planetary for 2011-2020.
4th prime is a 1.573 ratio the 62TE uses only during a 6-4 kickdown. It comes from running the compounder in direct with the main centerline in 2nd, so a damaged gearset in either section can cause noise or a flare on that kickdown.
Replace worn thrust washers and bearings, the filter, and the clutches and seals in a full rebuild. Inspect the compounder low clutch drum ring lands and the sprag as well, because they wear on high-mileage units.
Yes. Clear the codes and run the quick learn so the TCM relearns clutch volumes. TransGo also recommends resetting the VLP line pressure counter after every repair.
