NOTE The recommended frequency: each 50 000 km of a run or 24 months.

NOTE Some filters represent screens with openings which can be cleared by solvents, but not be replaced.

PREVENTION Oil temperature in the transmission can reach temperature of 170 °C therefore it is necessary to use protective gloves.

You make replacement of oil in the automatic transmission right after a trip. Hot oil is more effective, than cold, allows to remove the deposit formed in it from the transmission.

Lift the car on the elevator.

Fig. 2.41. A reversing of a stopper of discharge of oil from the automatic transmission

Install capacity for collecting oil under a drain stopper in the pallet of the automatic transmission. Turn out a drain stopper (fig. 2.41) . After discharge of oil establish a stopper into place and tighten the moment 17,6 N • m on cars till 2001 or the moment of 47,4 N • m on cars since 2001.

Fig. 2.42. A reversing a key on 10 mm (1) of a stopper of discharge of liquid from reverse main gear on cars since 2001 and on cars 2WD

On cars since 2001 and on cars 2WD there is also a drain stopper of reverse main gear. Move capacity for collecting oil under a drain stopper of reverse main gear and turn out a drain stopper (fig. 2.42) . After discharge of oil establish a stopper into place and tighten the moment 54 N • m.

Turn out lobbies and weaken back bolts of fastening of the pallet of the automatic transmission. An edge of the screw-driver or mount reject a forward part of the pallet from a case of the automatic transmission and merge the oil which remained in the pallet. Turn out back bolts of fastening of the pallet and remove it.

Fig. 2.43. Reversing of a bolt of fastening of the filter of liquid of the automatic transmission

Turn out bolts of fastening of the filter, release clips (on some models) and remove the filter (fig. 2.43) . At removal of the filter be careful as at it there is a residual liquid.

Establish new (or washed out) the filter, fix it by clips and bolts, having tightened their moment 9,5 N • m.

Carefully clear the privalochny surfaces of the pallet and a case of the automatic transmission.

Fig. 2.44. An arrangement of magnets on the pallet of the automatic transmission

Note an arrangement of magnets on the pallet, remove and clear them. Wash up the pallet in pure solvent, dry up it a stream of compressed air and establish into place magnets (fig. 2.44) .

Install the pallet with new laying on a case of the transmission and fix by bolts.

Lower the car.

Through the directing tube of the index of level of oil of the automatic transmission fill in fresh oil. Fill in oil in the small portions, at the same time constantly checking its level.

Start the engine, tighten the parking brake and move the selector lever from situation P to situation L, for a while detaining him in intermediate positions, then again in situation P.

During the operation of the engine at a frequency of rotation of idling check oil level in the automatic transmission. Add oil to the top tag, the corresponding cold transmission.
