hey guys, i have a 96 v6 camry (1mzfe) and the transmission is about to go after 194xxx miles. A friend donated his 93 v6 camry. Problem is his motor is a 3vzfe. I was wondering if the transmissions are the same. I tried searching google and here but couldnt find anything.

is the tranny code for both e153?

bigbird · 11-26-2008, 07:37 PM

yeah it is. but i think hes lookin for an automatic tranny, which im almost sure it has identical codes between the 3vz and 1mz too.

The transmissions are different, the 3VZ-FE used the A540E, and the 1MZ-FE used the A541E.

N.E.O.

I'll probably have an extra A541E sitting around if I can find a e153, if you want it. I will let it go for dirt cheap, cuz I hate that trans, reliable, but i hate autos.

that looks awesome, except no mileage...kind of high price too...
