2. DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL LEVEL
1) Ensure the vehicle is in safe condition.
NOTE:
Do not check the oil level nor add oil to the case with the
front end of the vehicle jacked-up; this will result in an
incorrect reading of the oil level.
2) Check whether the oil level is between the upper (F)
and lower (L) marks. If it is below the lower limit mark, add
oil until the level reaches the upper mark.
G3M0854
3. OIL LEAKAGE
It is difficult to accurately determine the precise position of
a oil leak, since the surrounding area also becomes wet
with oil. The places where oil seals and gaskets are used
are as follows:
Jointing portion of the case
Transmission case and oil pump housing jointing portion
Torque converter clutch case and oil pump housing joint-
ing portion
Transmission case and transmission cover jointing por-
tion (FWD)
Transmission case and extension case jointing portion
(AWD)
G3M0855
Torque converter clutch case
Engine crankshaft oil seal
Torque converter clutch impeller sleeve oil seal
ATF cooler pipe connector
Torque converter clutch
Torque converter clutch case
Axle shaft oil seal
O-ring on the outside diameter of axle shaft oil seal
holder
O-ring on the differential oil gauge
Differential oil drain plug
Speedometer cable mounting portion
Location of steel balls

Adjustment of the adjusting screw
1) Using a ST, immobilize the end of the 10 mm-screw
projecting on the left side of the transmission case, and
loosen the nut with a double-end wrench.
In the case of occurrence of problems 2. and 3. mentioned
previously, perform the adjustment by loosening or tighten-
ing the nut within a range of 3/4 turn from this state.
ST 398603610 SOCKET WRENCH
CAUTION:
Do not loosen excessively; otherwise, the band strut
on the servo piston will drop off.
G3M0290
2) In case of the occurrence of problems 1. and 4. men-
tioned previously, perform the adjustment as follows:
Adjusting procedure: Tighten adjust screw to 9 N⋅m (0.9
kg-m, 6.5 ft-lb) torque, then back off three turns.
CAUTION:
Do not tighten the adjusting screw with an excessively
large torque.
G3M0289
3) With the adjusting screw immobilized, tighten the lock
nut.
Tightening torque:
26±2 N⋅m (2.7±0.2 kg-m, 19.5±1.4 ft-lb)

(4) Check if there is continuity at equal points when the
select lever is turned 1.5°in both directions from the N
range.
If there is continuity in one direction and the continuity
in the other or if there is continuity at unequal points,
adjust the inhibitor switch.
G3M0294
(1) Loosen the three inhibitor switch securing bolts.
(2) Shift the select lever to the N range.
(3) Insert ST as vertical as possible into the holes in
the inhibitor switch lever and switch body.

(4) Tighten the three inhibitor switch bolts.
Tightening torque:
3.4±0.5 N⋅m (0.35±0.05 kg-m, 2.5±0.4 ft-lb)
(5) Repeat the above checks. If the inhibitor switch is
determined to be“faulty”, replace it.
