  5. DRAIN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID


    1. B006APC

      Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, remove the drain plug from the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly and drain the automatic transmission fluid.

      Note

      The overflow plug and drain plug are located nearby one another. Make sure not to remove the incorrect plug.

      *1 Drain Plug
      *2 Overflow Plug
      B006AHR Front of Vehicle

    2. Remove the O-ring from the drain plug.

    3. Install a new O-ring to the drain plug.

    4. Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, install the drain plug to automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly.

      Torque:
      40 N*m  { 408 kgf*cm, 30 ft.*lbf }

  6. REMOVE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OIL PAN SUB-ASSEMBLY

    CAUTION:

    Automatic transmission fluid is left in the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly when the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly is removed. As a result, if the procedures described in the repair manual are not performed correctly, the automatic transmission fluid may spill and result in burns.


    1. B006BGL

      Loosen the 12 bolts by 1 turn.

    2. B006E0S

      Remove the 8 bolts at the positions shown in the illustration.

    3. B0069XZ

      Set the transmission jack so that it contacts the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly.

      CAUTION:

      Set the transmission jack so that it is level with the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly.

      If the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly is not level when it is removed the automatic transmission fluid may spill and result in burns.

    4. B006COCC01
      *a Approximately 10 mm (0.394 in.)

      Loosen the 4 bolts by approximately 10 mm (0.394 in.) from the installation surface.

    5. Lower the transmission jack by approximately 10 mm (0.394 in.).

    6. B006GZLC01
      *1 Transmission Valve Body Assembly
      *2 O-Ring
      *3 Oil Strainer
      B006AHR Front of Vehicle

      Remove the oil strainer O-ring from the transmission valve body assembly.

      CAUTION:

      Disconnect slowly to prevent the automatic transmission fluid from spraying out.

      Tech Tips

      The oil strainer is integrated into the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly.

    7. B006DUQ

      Remove the 4 bolts.

    8. Lower the transmission jack and remove the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly from the transmission case.

      CAUTION:


      • Hot automatic transmission fluid is left in the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly. Therefore, remove it parallel to the ground so that the fluid does not spill.

      • B006AP8C01
        *a Automatic Transmission Fluid
        B006DHE Lower it slowly and level

        Lower the transmission jack slowly so that the hot automatic transmission fluid left in the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly does not spill.

    9. B006D5G

      Drain the automatic transmission fluid from the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly.

      CAUTION:

      Be careful of burns as the automatic transmission fluid is hot.

    10. B006CNV

      Examine the particles in the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly.


      1. Use the removed oil pan magnets to collect any steel chips.

        Examine the chips and particles in the automatic transmission oil pan sub-assembly and on the oil pan magnets to determine what type of wear might be found in the automatic transmission assembly.

        Result
        Steel (magnetic)
        Bearing, gear and clutch plate wear
        Brass (non-magnetic)
        Bushing wear
