I have a 2005 Liberty with the 3.7 engine and 42le auto. Anybody know if the Torque
convertor has a drain plug on it?

I really, really doubt it. That hasn't been common practice in YEARS. I know the CRD torque converters don't. Can't say for sure on the gas engines, but I really don't think so.

That's what I think too. Just wanted to see if anyone knew. I'm looking at doing a COMPLETE atf change because of weird problems that could be fluid related. I haven't seen a drain plug on a TC for a looooonng time, but thought maybe I'd get lucky.

Last torque converter drain plug I saw was on an old Mercedes.
My stock CRD Converter did not have one and neither does my Suncoast.
