ADJUSTMENT - DIFFERENTIAL TURNING
TORQUE
NOTE: Differential turning torque should only be
measured with the geartrain out of the transaxle. If
measurement is taken with transaxle assembled, an
inaccurate measurement will result.
NOTE: All differential cover-to-case bolts and exten-
sion housing-to-case bolts must be installed and
torqued to obtain accurate measurement.(1) If transaxle is assembled, remove geartrain
and leave differential in place. (Refer to 21 - TRANS-
MISSION/TRANSAXLE/MANUAL - DISASSEMBLY)
(2) Install differential cover and torque differential
cover-to-case bolts to 54 N´m (40 ft. lbs.).
(3) Install extension housing and torque extension
housing-to-case bolts to 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(4) Place transaxle on work bench so axle center-
line is parallel to the ground.
(5) Install turning torque tool C-4995 to differen-
tial at side opposite extension housing.
(6) Using in. lb./N´m dial indicator, rotate differen-
tial case multiple times and record measurement
(Fig. 123). Differential turning torque should be
within 2.3-3.4 N´m (20-30 in. lbs.). Refer to shim
chart for proper shim selection. If turning torque
measured is less than 2.3 N´m (20 in. lbs.), install a
thicker shim. If turning torque measured is greater
than 3.4 N´m (30 in. lbs.), install a thinner shim.

END PLAY
Measure side gear end play: Insert feeler gauges
180É apart between differential side gear and thrust
washer as shown in (Fig. 124). Measurement taken
here applies to both sides. Side gear end play should
be between 0.025-0.152 mm (0.001-0.006 in.). If clear-ance is greater than 0.152 mm (0.006 in.), install a
thicker thrust washer (both sides). If clearance is less
than 0.025 mm (0.001), install a thinner thrust
washer (both sides). Refer to (Fig. 125) for available
side gear shim thicknesses.

roller bearing at the front of the transaxle, and a
sealed roller bearing at the rear of the transaxle.DISASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Do not re-use snap rings when servicing
the intermediate shaft assembly. Discard upon dis-
assembly and install new ones provided with avail-
able snap ring service kit.
NOTE: Depending on date of transaxle manufacture,
some intermediate shafts will utilize a needle bear-
ing under the 2nd and 5th Speed Gears.

41TE AUTOMATIC
TRANSAXLE
DESCRIPTION
The 41TE (Fig. 1) is a four-speed transaxle that is
a conventional hydraulic/mechanical assembly with
an integral differential, and is controlled with adap-
tive electronic controls and monitors. The hydraulic
system of the transaxle consists of the transaxle
fluid, fluid passages, hydraulic valves, and various
line pressure control components. An input clutch
assembly which houses the underdrive, overdrive,
and reverse clutches is used. It also utilizes separate
holding clutches: 2nd/4th gear and Low/Reverse. The
primary mechanical components of the transaxle con-
sist of the following:
²Three multiple disc input clutches
²Two multiple disc holding clutches
²Four hydraulic accumulators
²Two planetary gear sets
²Hydraulic oil pump
²Valve body
²Solenoid/Pressure switch assembly
²Integral differential assemblyControl of the transaxle is accomplished by fully
adaptive electronics. Optimum shift scheduling is
accomplished through continuous real-time sensor
feedback information provided to the Powertrain
Control Module (PCM) or Transmission Control Mod-
ule (TCM).
The PCM/TCM is the heart of the electronic control
system and relies on information from various direct
and indirect inputs (sensors, switches, etc.) to deter-
mine driver demand and vehicle operating condi-
tions. With this information, the PCM/TCM can
calculate and perform timely and quality shifts
through various output or control devices (solenoid
pack, transmission control relay, etc.).
The PCM/TCM also performs certain self-diagnos-
tic functions and provides comprehensive information
(sensor data, DTC's, etc.) which is helpful in proper
diagnosis and repair. This information can be viewed
with the DRB scan tool.
