9.2.1. Check of level and addition of transmission liquid

For addition and AT gas station it is necessary to use only hydraulic liquid of the recommended grade (see size tables and adjustments at the end of the Management).

Level of transmission liquid has to be checked regularly according to the schedule of routine maintenance of the car. Check of level of transmission liquid every time when filling the car with fuel will become a useful habit.

Precisely it is impossible to determine the level of transmission liquid at operation of the car in hot weather, during a long high-speed trip, and also at towage of the car. In all listed cases before starting check of level of liquid let's transmission cool down within not less than 30 minutes.

Level of liquid can be checked with use of range of COLD on an edge of the measuring probe after warming up of the engine before a trip, however then it is necessary to repeat check in the range of NOTES after end of a trip.

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Warm up transmission up to the normal working temperature, having banished the car on the road about 5 km.
    to the flat horizontal platform with a hard coating also cock the parking brake. Carry out the selector lever serially through all provisions, having in conclusion established it in situation "P". Leave the engine working at single turns during the whole time of check.
  1. Carefully wipe the top part of a tube of the measuring probe / a jellied mouth and a surface around it in order to avoid hit in transmission of foreign objects, garbage and dirt at extraction of the probe. Location of the probe in a motive compartment is shown on an accompanying illustration. On an insert measured marking of an edge of the probe is shown.
  1. Take the probe and wipe its edge pure неворсящейся with rags. Again completely insert the probe into a tube of a jellied mouth.
  2. Repeatedly take the probe and determine the level of transmission liquid by height of the moistened part of an edge. The upper edge of the moistened site has to be in the range of NOTES of an edge. At the same time check liquid for pollution, decolouration and existence of a smell of burning.

For a guarantee of accuracy of measurement repeat check of level of liquid several times, examining a probe edge on both sides. Pollution and decolouration of liquid, and also presence of a smell of burning speak about existence of problems of the mechanical plan and need of display of transmission to the expert.

  1. If necessary add in transmission the necessary amount of liquid of the required grade through a tube of the measuring probe. Bring liquid level to hit it in the range of NOTES on an edge of the measuring probe. In order to avoid removal of false testimonies before making check allow liquid to flow down completely from tube walls.

Do not overflow transmission as it can lead to foaming in liquid and to decrease in efficiency of functioning of transmission. If addition of liquid has to be made regularly and often (or a large number), it is necessary to check transmission for existence of signs of leaks and to immediately remove their cause.

  1. Install the measuring probe into place, having tracked that in transmission dirt was not brought.
