Replacement of ATF of automatic transmission

Replacement of ATF of automatic transmission (each 50 000 km of a run or time in 24 months)

Two options of an arrangement of drain traffic jams of AT and forward differential


1 — the Drain stopper of forward differential
2 — the Drain stopper of AT

 


 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Replacement of ATF has to be made on a regular basis, according to the schedule of routine maintenance of the car (see the Section Schedule of Routine Maintenance of the Subaru Forester Cars). As transmission liquid remains hot still long time after end of a trip before starting implementation of the procedure, wait for full cooling of the engine (3 ÷ 4 hour).
2. Prepare fresh transmission liquid of the corresponding grade (see Specifications at the beginning of the Head).
3. Other necessary performance for the forthcoming procedure of tools and materials treat number: a cart jack, props for fixing of the car in the lifted situation, the drain capacity not less than 9 l and a stock of rags and old newspapers.

5. At the corresponding complete set of the car remove protection of a case of transmission, then turn out the fixing bolts located on pallet perimeter.
6. Get the drain capacity and all necessary stock under the pallet. Try not to touch the warmed components of the power unit and system of production of the fulfilled gases located under the car bottom. Having placed properly a reception container, turn out a drain stopper. When the liquid effluence completely stops, wipe a drain stopper, screw it on the regular place and tighten with the required effort (25 Nanometers), - do not forget to replace a sealing washer.
7. Gas station of fresh ATF is made through a control/jellied opening in which stopper the measuring probe is built in (see the Section Check of the ATF Level and Liquid of Forward Differential of Automatic Transmission).
8. Having filled in liquid, transfer transmission to situation "P", cock the parking brake and start the engine.
