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 may prevent the vehicle from being driven, may occur if dust or fine foreign matter enters the CVT.
Do not use cotton work gloves, cloths, paper towels, etc. that may produce lint, dust or foreign matter.
Perform the operation as quickly as possible, as dust and foreign matter may enter the CVT while the torque converter assembly is not attached to it.
Do not use an air gun until the torque converter assembly has been installed, as it may cause dust and foreign matter to be stirred up.
-
Clean the tips of both the claws of SST and the center bolt.
Using SST, remove the CVT oil pump type T oil seal from the continuously variable transaxle assembly.
