CORRECTION:
SERVICE INFORMATION:
Front planetary and gear train failure with no visible root cause.
The cause may be, a limited volume of lube oil to the front planetary due to hydraulic control
system demands.
Install a new design "Cross-over" rear lube tube and a new design Differential/Speedo lube
tube, that will increase the volume of lube oil to the front planetary system, as shown in
Figure 83. This requires the rear lube tube to "Cross-over" the differential and speedo lube
tube, as shown in Figure 83.
This change was implemented in mid-year 1992 for all AXODE transaxles.
