Line Pressure Test
Purpose of this test is to check operating conditions of each part
by measuring fluid pressure in fluid pressure line. Line pressure
test requires following conditions.
•Automatic fluid is at normal operating temperature (70 to 80
°
C/158 – 176 °F).
•Fluid is filled to proper level (between FULL HOT and LOW
HOT on dipstick).
1) Apply parking brake securely and place checks against
wheels.
2) Attach oil pressure gauge to fluid pressure check hole (1) in
transmission case.
Special tool
(A) : 09925-37811-001
3) Depress foot brake fully, run engine at idle and stall.
4) Check fluid pressure in “D” or “R” range within the following
specification.
Line pressure :
5) If check result is OK, disconnect special tool, then tighten
transmission case plug to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Transmission case plug : 17 N·m (1.7 kg-m, 12.0 lb-ft) CAUTION:
After attaching oil pressure gauge, check that not fluid
leakage exists.

LEVEL CHECK AT ROOM TEMPERATURE
The fluid level check at room temperature (20 – 30 °C (68 – 86
°F)) performed after repair or fluid change before test driving is
just preparation for level check of normal operating temperature.
The checking procedure itself is the same as that described previ-
ously. If the fluid level is between FULL COLD and LOW COLD,
proceed to test drive. And when the fluid temperature has
reached the normal operating temperature, check fluid level again
and adjust it as necessary.
Fluid change
1) Lift up vehicle.
2) With engine is cool, remove drain plug (1) from oil pan and
drain A/T fluid.
3) Install drain plug (1).
Tightening torque
A/T fluid drain plug (a) :
23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lb-ft)
4) Lower vehicle and fill proper amount of an equivalent of
DEXRON
®-III.
5) Check fluid level referring to “LEVEL CHECK NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURE” of “FLUID LEVEL” in this
section.
Fluid specification :
