With your vehicle being a 2008 I'd be cautious. That was in the time frame of valve bodies being bad, A way to decipher would be DAS/Xentry. Looking at control unit version and knowing whether you have a nag1 or nag2. You have a 722.9 trans correct? An easy way to answer that question is do you have a fill tube in the engine bay for the transmission? Also I sure hope, if you do in fact have a .9, you get a new update screw and new drift with your conductor plate. And better make sure you add enough fluid to fill that torque converter too!!!!

Good luck lars

Thanks for answer,but my transmission is called:722640 07 228591 ,so then my valve body is oki?.but do you know if i need to program the new conductor plate with new solenoids,with a staar pc?
I will remember to fill the converter with the right amount of oil,btw:how much fluid to i need?
And are there other parts in the gearbox that i can change while i have it up?,i have bought a conductor plate,and all solenoids,and i will get the valve body overhauled,and new converter?because i remember in them old gearboxes,we changed some brake"pads".dont know the english word on them

nope, no programming needed. Not sure on the fluid level. Considering I have never drained a torque converter I'm no help on that aspect. However, Get you a 722.6 trans dipstick. http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/371041472867?lpid=82&chn=ps

Yes. You need WIS/step by step instructions and some special tools.
