      To prevent damage to the knock pins, do not pry between the transaxle and engine.

  12. REMOVE TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY


    1. A005M28

      Remove the torque converter assembly from the continuously variable transaxle.

  13. REMOVE CVT OIL PUMP TYPE T OIL SEAL

    Note


    • Do not remove the front oil pump assembly from the CVT main body, as there is the possibility of the entry of dust and foreign matter.

    • Clean the work area, the tools to be used, and other equipment, etc. thoroughly before the operation, as there is the possibility that a CVT malfunction, which could prevent the vehicle from running, could occur if dust or fine foreign matter enters the CVT.

    • Do not use cotton work gloves, cloths, or paper towels, etc. that may produce lint, etc.

    • Perform the operation as quickly as possible, as dust and foreign matter could enter the CVT while the torque converter is not attached to it.

    • Do not use the air gun until the torque converter has been installed, as it could cause dust and foreign matter to be stirred up.


    1. A005JJ5E03

      Clean the tips of both the claws and the center bolt of the SST.
