Post subject:  Do I Have the Right Part?

I just bought a new transmission pump kit for my '05 CRD and I want to make double-sure that I've got the right parts. I know that this vehicle has a 545RFE transmission. The label on the package shows the correct Mopar part # (68009879AB), but it also says that it is for a 03-07 45RFE transmission. Do the 45 and 545RFE transmission take the same pump, cover, etc? Date of manufacture is 12/8/08.

Probably, pending confirmation, as the 545RFE is just a 5 speed version of the 45RFE.

By "pending confirmation", do you mean that you are checking? That would be greatly appreciated.

All I can say is based on what I can find it's the right pump but not having installed on I cannot say for sure. Pending confirmation = need more informed opinion.

Have you tried asking your vendor?

Vendor said that it should work. I'm just looking for other opinions. Thanks.

Danoid was the Chrysler transmission engineer - he said the 45 and the 545 were the same except for the programming.
