CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
The necessary procedures (adjustment, calibration, initialization, or registration) that must be performed after parts are removed, installed, or replaced during the manual transaxle assembly removal/installation are shown below.
| Replacement Part or Procedure | Necessary Procedure | Effect/Inoperative when not Performed | Link |
|---|---|---|---|
| Disconnect cable from negative battery terminal | Memorize steering angle neutral point |
|
|
| Initialize back door lock | Power door lock control system | ||
| Drive the vehicle until stop and start control is permitted (approximately 5 to 60 minutes) | Stop and start system | ||
| Front wheel alignment adjustment | Perform the following procedures in the order shown:
|
|
*1: When performing learning using the GTS.
CAUTION:
| *a | Heavy object exceeding the capacity of the transmission jack |
Because the manual transaxle assembly is extremely heavy, make sure to follow the work procedures described in the repair manual.
If work is not performed according to the procedures described in the repair manual, there is a danger that the transmission jack could drop and components could fall down.
When the engine is hot, do not touch high-temperature areas such as the engine or exhaust pipe.
Touching high-temperature areas such as the engine and exhaust pipe could result in burns.
Note
When the manual transaxle assembly is removed, be sure to use a new clutch release cylinder with bearing assembly and new installation bolts. Removal of the manual transaxle assembly allows the compressed clutch release cylinder with bearing assembly to return to its original position. Dust from the moving section may damage the seal of the clutch release cylinder with bearing assembly, possibly causing clutch fluid leaks.
PROCEDURE
PRECAUTION
Note
After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.
DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
Note
When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.

| *a | Front of Engine (or RH Side of Vehicle) |
Install the No. 1 engine hanger and No. 2 engine hanger with the 4 bolts as shown in the illustration.
INSTALL ENGINE SUPPORT BRIDGE
Remove the clip and the neck from the windshield washer jar assembly.
Install SST to the vehicle body as shown in the illustration.
| *a | Support Shaft | *b | Front Side Member |
| *c | Front Suspension Nut | - | - |
CAUTION:
| *a | Support Shaft |
| *b | Front Side Member |
Make sure that no oil or grease is on the front side member, and set the support shaft on the level surface of the front side member.
The engine support bridge may fall off if any oil or grease is still on or it is installed on the unlevel surface.
Note
Prevent SST from contacting the vehicle body exterior and windshield glass.
To prevent damage to the engine hood, place pieces of cloth between the engine hood and SST.
Lightly shake SST by hand to make sure it is securely installed before performing work.
| *a | Support Shaft |
| *b | Sub Beam |
| *c | Front Side Member |
| *d | Threaded Portion |
Turn the threaded portion of each support shaft to adjust its height until the sub beams are parallel to the ground.
Install the chain block to the sling bracket.
| *a | Chain Block | *b | Sling Bracket |
| *c | Fuse Shackle | *d | Shackle (A) |
Install the division bar to the chain block with the shackles.
CAUTION:
| *a | Fuse Shackle |
| *b | Shackle (A) |
Make sure the fuse shackle is on the chain block side and the shackle (A) is on the division bar side as shown in the illustration so that the fuse bolt is visible and can be checked for deformation easily.
If the fuse shackle is installed upside down, deformation of the fuse bolt will not be visible and cannot be used to tell if the load capacity of the engine support bridge has been exceeded. If the load capacity is exceeded, it may cause the engine support bridge to damage the vehicle and the engine assembly with automatic transaxle assembly may fall.
| *a | Fuse Shackle |
| *b | Fuse Bolt |
Make sure that the fuse bolt of the fuse shackle is free of damage, such as deformation or cracks. If damaged, replace the fuse shackle.
If a deformed fuse bolt is used, it cannot be used to tell if the load capacity of the engine support bridge has been exceeded. If the load capacity is exceeded, it may cause the engine support bridge to damage the vehicle and the engine assembly with transaxle assembly may fall.
Connect the division bar to the No. 1 engine hanger with the shackle (A) and chain.
| *1 | No. 1 Engine Hanger | *2 | No. 2 Engine Hanger |
| *a | Division Bar | *b | Shackle (A) |
| *c | Chain | - | - |
Connect the division bar to the No. 2 engine hanger with the shackle (A) and chain.
Note
Connect the 2nd link of the chain to the No. 2 engine hanger.
| *a | 120 mm (4.72 in.) or more |
Make sure the distance between the chain block assembly and suspension ring is 120 mm (4.72 in.) or more.
Tech Tips
If the suspension height is less than 120 mm, adjust the links of the chain which connect the division bar and engine hanger.
Adjust the positions of the chain block assembly, support brackets and main beam so that the chain of the chain block assembly is perpendicular to the main beam and the length of the main beam on the outer side of the support bracket LH and RH is the same as shown in the illustration.
| *a | Chain Block | *b | Main Beam |
| *c | Dimension (A) | *d | Dimension (B) |
| *e | Right to Left Adjustment | *f | Front to Rear Adjustment |
CAUTION:
To prevent the engine with automatic transaxle assembly from falling, make sure that the length of dimension (A) and dimension (B) are equal.
| *a | Main Beam |
Do not perform any procedures if the length of dimension (A) and dimension (B) are not equal.
Performing any procedure when the length of dimension (A) and dimension (B) are not equal may cause the engine assembly with automatic transaxle assembly and engine support bridge to fall, possibly causing serious injury.
Confirm the appropriate installation state of the engine support bridge and tighten the 6 wing bolts and 2 bolts.
| *a | Wing Bolt | *b | Bolt |
CAUTION:
Do not perform any procedures before tightening the bolts to the specified torque.
Performing procedures without tightening the bolts to the specified torque, may cause the engine support bridge to fall.
| *a | Turn |
Tighten the chain block assembly until it cannot be moved any further by hand.
