Transmission
Transmission
• Do not run the engine and do not tow the vehicle if the transmission pan is removed or if there is no transmission fluid inside the transmission.
• Always clean the connection points and the area around them first, and then loosen the fasteners.
• When installing the transmission, make sure the alignment sleeves are correctly installed between the engine and transmission.
• Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them so that they do not get dirty. Use foil, paper or a lint free cloth.
• Only install clean components: Remove the replacement parts from their packaging just prior to installing them.
• Carefully cover or seal unpacked components, if repairs cannot be performed immediately.
• With the transmission removed, secure the torque converter so that it cannot fall out.
Transmission, With and Without a Filling Tube
Here is an example of a filler tube - arrow - as it was installed in older transmissions. This tube has been removed.
You also do not need the old filler hole with the red cap because the transmission fluid is drained and filled at the lower hole when necessary. The height of the overflow tube corresponds to the height of the fluid level.
To drain the fluid, the overflow tube is removed.
• After installing, check the fluid level and fill. Refer to => [ Transmission Fluid Level, Checking and Filling ] Transmission Fluid Level, Checking and Filling.
• Capacities, refer to the Fluid Capacity Tables
