mary).
f. Pull out stopper pin after installing, and then release plunger.
g. Make sure again that timing chain and water pump sprocket are
engaged.
4. Install chain tensioner cover and water pump cover as follows:
a. Before installing, remove all traces of old liquid gasket from mat-
ing surface of water pump cover and chain tensioner cover
using scraper. Also remove traces of old liquid gasket from the
mating surface of front timing chain case.
b. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket with tube presser [SST:
WS39930000] to mating surface of chain tensioner cover and
water pump cover.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
CAUTION:
Attaching should be done within 5 minutes after coating.
c. Tighten mounting bolts.
5. Install water drain plug (front) on water pump side of cylinder block.
Apply liquid gasket to the thread of water drain plug (front).
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
6. Install in the reverse order of removal in this step.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in guide may gen-
erate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this does not indicate an unusualness.
Noise will stop after hydraulic pressure rises.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check for leaks of engine coolant using radiator cap tester adapter [SST: EG17650301] and radiator cap
tester (commercial service tool). Refer to CO-34, "
LEAK CHECK" .
Start and warm up engine. Visually check if there is no leaks of engine coolant.

NOTE:
The gear ratio is set for every position separately.
“D” POSITION
Shifting over all the ranges of gear ratios from the lowest to the high-
est.
“M” POSITION
When the selector lever is put in the manual shift gate side, the fixed
changing gear line is set. By moving the selector lever to + side or -
side, the manual mode switch is changed over, and shift change like
M/T becomes possible following the changing gear set line step by
step.
DOWNHILL ENGINE BRAKE CONTROL (AUTO ENGINE BRAKE CONTROL)
When downhill is detected with the accelerator pedal released, the engine brake will be strengthened up by
downshifting so as not to accelerate the vehicle more than necessary.
ACCELERATION CONTROL
According to vehicle speed and a change of accelerator pedal angle, driver's request for acceleration and driv-
ing scene are judged. This function assists improvement in acceleration feeling by making the engine speed
proportionate to the vehicle speed. And a shift map which can gain a larger driving force is available for com-
patibility of mileage with drivability.
Lock-up and Select ControlBCS001G7
The torque converter clutch piston in the torque converter is engaged to eliminate torque converter slip to
increase power transmission efficiency.
The torque converter clutch control valve operation is controlled by the torque converter clutch solenoid
valve, which is controlled by a signal from TCM. The torque converter clutch control valve engages or
releases the torque converter clutch piston.
When shifting between “N” (“P”) ⇔ “D” (“R”), torque converter clutch solenoid controls engagement power
of forward clutch and reverse brake.
The lock-up applied gear range was expanded by locking up the
torque converter at a lower vehicle speed than conventional
CVT models.
