Automatic Transmission Unit -- Inspection |
1. INSPECT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OIL PAN SUB-ASSEMBLY |
Remove the magnets, and use them to collect steel particles.
Carefully look at the foreign matter and particles in the pan and on the magnets to anticipate the type of wear you will find in the transmission.
- Steel (magnetic): bearing, gear and clutch plate wear
- Brass (non-magnetic): bushing wear
2. INSPECT NO. 2 1-WAY CLUTCH ASSEMBLY |

- NOTICE:
- Before assembling new discs, soak them in ATF for at least 15 minutes.
4. INSPECT NO. 3 BRAKE PISTON RETURN SPRING SUB-ASSEMBLY |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the spring together with the spring seat.

Using a dial indicator, measure the inside diameter of the front planetary gear bushing.
- Maximum inside diameter:
- 57.48 mm (2.263 in.)
- If the inside diameter is greater than the maximum, replace the front planetary gear.
6. INSPECT 1-WAY CLUTCH ASSEMBLY |
Hold the 1-way clutch inner race and turn the 1-way clutch.
Check that the 1-way clutch turns freely counterclockwise and locks when turned clockwise.
7. INSPECT NO. 1 BRAKE DISC |
Replace all discs if one of the following problems is present: 1) a disc, plate or flange is worn or burnt, 2) the lining of a disc is peeled off or discolored, or 3) grooves or printed numbers have even a little bit of damage.
- NOTICE:
- Before assembling new discs, soak them in ATF for at least 15 minutes.
8. INSPECT BRAKE PISTON RETURN SPRING SUB-ASSEMBLY |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the spring together with the spring seat.
- Standard free length:
- 17.05 mm (0.671 in.)
9. INSPECT NO. 2 BRAKE DISC |
Replace all discs if one of the following problems is present: 1) a disc, plate or flange is worn or burnt, 2) the lining of a disc is peeled off or discolored, or 3) grooves or printed numbers have even a little bit of damage.
- NOTICE:
- Before assembling new discs, soak them in ATF for at least 15 minutes.
10. INSPECT NO. 2 BRAKE PISTON RETURN SPRING SUB-ASSEMBLY |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the spring together with the spring seat.
- Standard free length:
- 17.45 mm (0.687 in.)
11. INSPECT CENTER PLANETARY GEAR ASSEMBLY |
Using a feeler gauge, measure the center planetary gear pinion thrust clearance.
- Standard clearance:
- 0.12 to 0.68 mm (0.005 to 0.027 in.)
- Maximum clearance:
- 0.73 mm (0.029 in.)
- If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the center planetary gear assembly.
12. INSPECT NO. 3 1-WAY CLUTCH ASSEMBLY |
Hold the rear planetary ring gear flange and turn the 1-way clutch.
Check that the 1-way clutch turns freely counterclockwise and locks when turned clockwise.
13. INSPECT REAR PLANETARY RING GEAR FLANGE SUB-ASSEMBLY |
Using a dial indicator, measure the inside diameter of the rear planetary ring gear bushing.
- Maximum inside diameter:
- 32.175 mm (1.267 in.)
- If the inside diameter is greater than the maximum, replace the rear planetary ring gear.
14. INSPECT INTERMEDIATE SHAFT |
Using a dial indicator, check the intermediate shaft runout.
- Maximum runout:
- 0.08 mm (0.003 in.)
If the runout is greater than the maximum, replace the intermediate shaft with a new one.
Using a micrometer, check the diameter of the intermediate shaft positions shown in the diagram.
- Standard diameter:
Position
| Specified Condition
|
A
| 25.962 to 25.975 mm (1.022 to 1.023 in.)
|

|
- Minimum diameter:
Position
| Specified Condition
|
A

|
C
| 32.012 mm (1.260 in.)
|
D
| 32.012 mm (1.260 in.)
|
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the intermediate shaft with a new one.
