OPERATIONS AFTER ENGINE IS WARMED UP
PERIODIC INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
2-38
CAUTION
The engine should be stopped within one minute
of it being started. If the A/T fluid has all been dis
-
charged before this, stop the engine at that point.
2. Start the engine and discharge the A/T fluid.
Driving conditions: N range, idling
Discharge amount: Approx. 3.5 L
3. Remove the drain plug at the bottom of the
transmission case to drain out the remaining A/T
fluid.
Discharge amount: Approx. 2.0 L
4. Install the drain plug with a gasket in between,
and tighten it to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 32 ± 2 N⋅ m
CAUTION
Stop pouring in the A/T fluid once 5.5 L has been
poured in.
5. Pour the new A/T fluid in through the oil filler tube.
Amount to add: Approx. 5.5 L
6. Repeat the operation in step 2.
7. Pour in new A/T fluid through the oil filler tube.
Amount to add: Approx. 3.5 L
NOTE: Carry out steps 2 and 7 so that at least 8.0
L has been discharged from the cooler hose. After
this, discharge a small quantity of A/T fluid and
check for contamination. If the A/T fluid is contam
-
inated, repeat steps 6 and 7.
8. Connect the hose which was disconnected in step
1, and then securely re-insert the oil level gauge.
9. Start the engine, and let it run at idle for 1 − 2
minutes.
10.Move the selector lever to all positions once, and
then return it to the P position.
11.Check that the A/T fluid level on the oil level
gauge is at the COLD mark. if it is not up to this
mark, add more A/T fluid.
12.Drive the vehicle until the A/T fluid temperature
reaches the normal temperature (70
− 80° C), and
then re check the A/T fluid level.
NOTE: The COLD mark is for reference only; the
HOT marks should be used as the standard for
judgment.
NOTE: Use M.U.T.-III. measure the A/T fluid tem-
perature.
NOTE: Check the fluid level referring to the char-
acteristics chart shown if it takes some time until
reaching the normal operation temperature of A/T
fluid (70
−
80
°
C.)
13.When A/T fluid is under the specified level, top up
A/T fluid. When A/T fluid is over the specified
level, drain the excessive A/T fluid from the drain
plug to adjust A/T fluid level to the specified level.
14.Securely insert the oil level gauge into the oil filler
tube.
