Removal And Installation
TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY
WITH S-MODE : Removal and Installation
CAUTION:
Never reuse CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder) body and CSC tube. Because CSC slides back to the original position every time when removing transmission assembly. At this timing, dust on the sliding parts may damage a seal of CSC and may cause clutch fluid leakage. Refer to Removal and Installation.
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
2. Remove engine cover (front) and engine cover (rear). Refer to Removal and Installation.
3. Remove control lever with the following procedure.
a. Remove mounting bolt ( Black arrow indicates ) and then separate control lever from control rod.
b. Remove console finisher assembly as shown in the figure. Refer to Removal And Installation.
c. Remove clips ( Black arrow indicates ) from hole cover.
d. Remove mounting bolts ( Black arrow indicates ) and then remove hole cover.

- Keep painted surface on the body or other parts free of clutch fluid. If it spills, wipe up immediately and wash the affected area with water.
- Never depress clutch pedal during removal procedure.
NOTE:
Insert a suitable plug to clutch hose and CSC tube after removing clutch tube.
9. Remove crankshaft position sensor. Refer to Removal and Installation.
10. Remove starter motor. Refer to M/T Models.
11. Remove rear plate cover. Refer to Removal and Installation.

13. Disconnect gear lever position sensor connector (A).
CAUTION:
Never remove connector (B).
14. Disconnect input speed sensor connector.
15. Disconnect heated oxygen sensor 2 (bank 1) and heated oxygen sensor 2 (bank 2) connectors. Refer to Removal and Installation.
16. Set a suitable jack to the transmission assembly.
CAUTION:
When setting a suitable jack, be careful so that it does not contact with the wire harness.
NOTE:
By placing wooden block between oil pan (upper) and front suspension member, the removal of transmission assembly from engine becomes easier.
17. Remove engine mounting insulator (rear) mounting nuts. Refer to Removal and Installation.
18. Remove rear engine mounting member. Refer to Removal and Installation.
19. Remove engine and transmission mounting bolts using a power tool [Commercial service tool].
20. Lower a suitable jack to the position where the back-up lamp switch connector can be disconnect. Then disconnect back-up lamp switch connector.
21. Remove harness and harness brackets and then temporarily secure it to a position where it will not inhibit work.
22. Remove transmission assembly from the engine.
CAUTION:
- Secure transmission assembly to a suitable jack while removing it.
- The transmission assembly must not interfere with the three way catalyst (right bank) and three way catalyst (left bank).
- The transmission assembly must not interfere with the wire harnesses and clutch hose.
- The main drive gear must not interfere with the clutch cover.
- Never hold control lever housing to prevent the bushing of control lever housing from deformation when moving transmission assembly.
23. Remove CSC body and CSC tube. Refer to Removal and Installation.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
- Secure transmission assembly to a suitable jack while installing it.
- The transmission assembly must not interfere with the three way catalyst (right bank) and three way catalyst (left bank).
- The transmission assembly must not interfere with the wire harnesses and clutch hose.
- The main drive gear must not interfere with the clutch cover.
- Never hold control lever housing to prevent the bushing of control lever housing from deformation when moving transmission assembly.
- Tighten transmission assembly mounting bolts to the specified torque. The figure is the view from the vehicle forward.
- If flywheel is removed, align dowel pin with the smallest hole of flywheel. Refer to Disassembly And Assembly.
