AT-31

CVT Fluid CheckNCAT0025FLUID LEAKAGE CHECKNCAT0025S011. Clean area suspected of leaking. Ð for example, mating sur-
face of converter housing and transmission case.
2. Start engine, apply foot brake, place selector lever in ªDº posi-
tion and wait a few minutes.
3. Stop engine.
4. Check for fluid leakage.
FLUID CONDITION CHECKNCAT0025S02
Fluid color Suspected problem
Dark or black with burned odor Wear of frictional material
Milky pink Water contamination Ð Road water
entering through filler tube or breather
Varnished fluid, light to dark brown and
tackyOxidation Ð Over or under filling, Ð
Overheating
FLUID LEVEL CHECKNCAT0025S03Refer to MA section (ªChecking CVT Fluidº, ªCHASSIS AND BODY
MAINTENANCEº).
Stall TestNCAT0026STALL TEST PROCEDURENCAT0026S011. Check CVT fluid and engine oil levels. If necessary, add.
2. Drive vehicle for approx. 10 minutes or until engine oil and CVT
fluid reach operating temperature.
CVT fluid operating temperature:
50 - 80ÉC (122 - 176ÉF)

3. Set parking brake and block wheels.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.
IIt is good practice to mark the point of specified engine
rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in D
position.
6. Accelerate to wide open throttle gradually while applying foot
brake.
7. Quickly note the engine stall revolution and immediately
release throttle.
IDuring test, never hold throttle wide open for more than 5
seconds.
Stall revolution:
2,350 - 2,850 rpm
8. Move selector lever to ªNº position.
9. Cool off CVT fluid.
IRun engine at idle for at least one minute.
Line Pressure TestNCAT0027LINE PRESSURE TEST PORTSNCAT0027S01Location of line pressure test ports are shown in the illustration.
IAlways replace pressure plugs as they are self-sealing
bolts.
LINE PRESSURE TEST PROCEDURENCAT0027S021. Check CVT fluid and engine oil levels. If necessary, add fluid
or oil.
2. Drive vehicle for approx. 10 minutes or until engine oil and CVT
fluid reach operating temperature.
CVT fluid operating temperature:
50 - 80ÉC (122 - 176ÉF)

3. Install pressure gauge to corresponding line pressure port.
4. Set parking brake and block wheels.
IContinue to depress brake pedal fully while line pressure
test is being performed at stall speed.
5. Start engine and measure line pressure at idle and stall speed.
IWhen measuring line pressure at stall speed, follow the
stall test procedure.
Line pressure: Refer to SDS, AT-120.
Road TestNCAT0028DESCRIPTIONNCAT0028S01IThe purpose of the test is to determine overall performance of
CVT and analyze causes of problems.
IThe road test consists of the following three parts:
1. Check before engine is started
2. Cruise test
IBefore road test, familiarize yourself with all test procedures
and items to check.
IConduct tests on all items until specified symptom is found.
Troubleshoot items which check out No Good after road test.
