AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLEOPERATION ±
AX±5
Power from the engine transmitted to the input shaft via the torque converter is then transmitted to the
planetary gears by the operation of the clutch.
By operation of the brake and one±way clutch, either the planetary carrier or the planetary sun gear
are immobilized, altering the speed of revolution of the planetary gear unit.
Shift change is carried out by altering the combination of clutch and brake operation.
Each clutch and brake operates by hydraulic pressure; gear position is decided according to the throttle
opening angle and vehicle speed, and shift change automatically occurs.
The conditions of operation for each gear position are shown on the following illustrations:

2. HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM
The hydraulic control system is composed of the oil pump, the valve body, the solenoid valves, the accu-
mulators, the clutches and brakes, and the governor valve as well as the fluid passages which connect
all of these components.
Based on the hydraulic pressure created by the oil pump, the hydraulic control system governs the hy-
draulic pressure acting on the torque converter clutch, clutches and brakes in accordance with the ve-
hicle driving conditions.
There are three solenoid valves on the valve body.
The No.1 and No.2 solenoid valves are turned on and off by signals from the ECM to operate the shift
valves and change the gear shift position.
The No.3 solenoid valve is operated by signals from the ECM to engage or disengage the lock±up
clutch of the torque converter.

DISASSEMBLY OF DIFFERENTIAL
1. REMOVE CARRIER COVER
2. MEASURE TOTAL PRELOAD
Using a torque meter, measure the total preload, and note
the measurement value.
3. MEASURE BACKLASH OF SIDE GEAR
Measure each side gear backlash while holding one pin-
ion toward the case.
Standard backlash:
0.05 ± 0.20 mm (0.0020 ± 0.0079 in.)
4. REMOVE LH BEARING RETAINER
(a) Remove the 6 bolts.
(b) Tap the retainer with a plastic hammer to remove it.
(c) Remove the O±ring from the retainer.
5. REMOVE RH SIDE BEARING CAP
Remove the 2 bolts and the side bearing cap.

6. REMOVE DIFFERENTIAL CASE, OUTER RACE AND
ADJUSTING SHIM
Remove the differential case, the outer race and the ad-
justing shim from the case.
7. MEASURE DRIVE PINION PRELOAD
Using a torque meter, measure the drive pinion preload.
Preload (at starting):
Reused bearing
0.5 ± 0.8 N´m (5 ± 8 kgf´cm, 4.3 ± 6.9 in.´lbf)
The total preload measured in step 2 minus the drive pin-
ion preload equals 0.1 ± 0.2 N´m (1.5 ± 2.0 kgf´cm, 1.3 ±
1.7in.´lbf).
If the result is not within this specification, the side bearing
preload is bad.
8. REMOVE DRIVE PINION CAP
(a) Remove the drive pinion cap installation bolt.
(b) Using a screwdriver, push out the drive pinion cap.
9. REMOVE COUNTER DRIVEN GEAR
(a) Using a chisel, loosen the staked part of the nut.
