    2. A01VY6A

      Remove the refill plug and gasket from the rear transaxle cover sub-assembly. [#2]

    3. A01VWZI

      Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, remove the overflow plug and gasket from the automatic transaxle oil pan sub-assembly. [#3]

    4. B005PKLC02
      *1 No. 1 Transmission Oil Filler Tube
      *a 6 mm Hexagon Socket Wrench

      Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, remove the No. 1 transmission oil filler tube from the automatic transaxle oil pan sub-assembly and drain the automatic transaxle fluid. [#4]

    5. A01VV53

      Measure the amount of automatic transaxle fluid drained. [#5]

      Tech Tips

      Add the same amount of automatic transaxle fluid in step [#8].

    6. Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, install the No. 1 transmission oil filler tube to the automatic transaxle oil pan sub-assembly. [#6]

      Torque:
      1.7 N*m  { 17 kgf*cm, 15 in.*lbf }
    7. A01VWZI

      Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, temporarily install the gasket and overflow plug to the automatic transaxle oil pan sub-assembly. [#7]

      Tech Tips

      Reuse the old gasket as the overflow plug will be removed again to adjust the automatic transaxle fluid level.

    8. A01VXMS

      Add automatic transaxle fluid to the refill hole using the same amount of automatic transaxle fluid drained in step [#5]. [#8]
