PROCEDURE
INSTALL W/HEAD STRAIGHT SCREW PLUG
Tech Tips
Perform this procedure only when replacement of the continuously variable transaxle assembly is necessary.
Install the w/head straight screw plug to the continuously variable transaxle assembly with a new gasket.
INSTALL CVT OIL PUMP TYPE T OIL SEAL
Ensure that there is no dirt or foreign matter on your hands, and then apply genuine TOYOTA MP grease No.2 to the entire periphery of the lip of a new CVT oil pump type T oil seal.
Temporarily attach the CVT oil pump type T oil seal by pressing it onto the installation surface of the oil pump housing manually.
Clean the oil seal contact section of the SST and the area around it.
Using the SST, drive the CVT oil pump type T oil seal in evenly, as far as the side surface of the oil pump housing.
Note
Drive the oil seal in gradually, while visually checking the parallelism.
After the installation, confirm that the oil seal has been driven in as far as the side surface of the oil pump housing.
Wipe off any grease that has oozed out with your hand.
Tech Tips
The oil seal should be driven in between 0 and 0.5mm (as measured from the side surface of the oil pump housing).
INSTALL TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
| *a | Matchmark |
| *b | Groove |
Turn the front oil pump drive gear so that the groove is at the top and place a matchmark on the housing to indicate the position of the groove.
| *1 | Key |
| *a | Matchmark |
Place a matchmark on the torque converter so that the position of its key is clearly indicated.
| *a | Matchmark |
Align the matchmark on the housing with the one on the torque converter and engage the splines of the input shaft with the turbine runner splines.
Note
Install the torque converter to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
| *1 | Oil Seal |
| *a | Matchmark |
Rotate the torque converter approximately 180° and engage the splines of the stator shaft with the stator.
Note
Do not damage the oil seal.
Install the torque converter to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
| *1 | Oil Seal |
| *a | Matchmark |
Rotate the torque converter again, align the matchmark on the torque converter with the one on the housing and insert the key of the torque converter into the groove of the oil pump drive gear.
Note
Do not push the torque converter excessively when rotating it.
Do not damage the oil seal.
Install the torque converter to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
Clean the torque converter set bolt holes.
| *1 | Engine Surface |
| *2 | Drive Plate Surface Groove |
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure dimension "A" between the transaxle contact surface of the engine and the torque converter contact surfaces of the drive plate.
Note
Make sure to deduct the thickness of the straightedge.
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure dimension "B" shown in the illustration and check that dimension "B" is more than dimension "A", which was measured in the previous step.
| Standard |
|---|
| A + 1 mm (0.0394 in.) or more |
Note
Make sure to deduct the thickness of the straightedge.
If the transaxle is installed to the engine with the torque converter not sufficiently inserted, the torque converter may be damaged.
INSTALL ENGINE MOVING CONTROL ROD
Install the engine moving control rod to the continuously variable transaxle with the 4 bolts.
INSTALL FRONT SUSPENSION CROSSMEMBER SUB-ASSEMBLY
Install the engine moving control rod with the bolt.
INSTALL ENGINE ASSEMBLY
| *1 | Torque Converter Centerpiece |
| *2 | Crankshaft |
Apply clutch spline grease to the surface of the crankshaft that contacts the torque converter centerpiece.
| Clutch spline grease |
|---|
| Toyota Genuine Clutch Spline Grease or equivalent |
| Maximum spread |
| About 1 g (0.0353 oz.) |
| *1 | Knock Pin |
While keeping the engine and continuously variable transaxle assembly horizontal, align the knock pins with the holes in the continuously variable transaxle assembly and install the 7 bolts shown in the illustration.
Note
Confirm that the 2 knock pins are installed to the transaxle contact surface of the engine cylinder block before installing the transaxle.
Do not forcibly pry on the Check that the torque converter rotates..
Check that the torque converter rotates.
Tech Tips
Bolt A: Install from transaxle side
Bolt B: Install from engine side
