Changing M/T OilELS000BD
1. Drain oil from drain plug and refill with new gear oil.
(For details, refer to MT-12, "
Changing M/T Oil" .)
2. Check oil level.
For 2WD models
For 4WD models
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
Checking A/T FluidELS000BV
1. Warm up engine.
2. Check for fluid leakage.
3. Before driving, fluid level can be checked at fluid temperatures of 30 to 50°C (86 to 122°F) using “COLD”
range on A/T fluid level gauge.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear position. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
c. Check fluid level with engine idling.Oil grade and viscosity:
Refer to MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS" .

d. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and wipe clean lint-free paper.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free paper, not cloth one.
e. Re-insert A/T fluid level gauge into charging pipe as far as it will go.
CAUTION:
To check fluid level, insert the A/T fluid level gauge until the cap contacts the end of the A/T fluid
charging pipe, with the A/T fluid level gauge reversed from the normal attachment conditions.
f. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and note reading. If reading is at low side of range, add fluid to the A/T fluid
charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes in urban areas.
5. Re-check fluid level at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) using “HOT” range on A/T fluid
level gauge.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free paper, not cloth one.
To check fluid level, insert the A/T fluid level gauge until the cap contacts the end of the A/T fluid
charging pipe, with the A/T fluid level gauge reversed from the normal attachment conditions.
6. Check fluid condition.
If fluid is very dark or smells burned, refer to AT section for
checking operation of A/T. Flush cooling system after repair of
A/T.
If A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent
and compressed air after repair of A/T. Refer to CO-12,
"RADIATOR" , CO-15, "RADIATOR (ALUMINUM TYPE)" .
7. Install the removed A/T fluid level gauge in the A/T fluid charging
pipe.
Changing A/T FluidELS000BW
1. Warm up A/T fluid.
2. Stop engine.
3. Drain A/T fluid from drain plug and refill with new A/T fluid.
Always refill same volume with drained fluid.
4. Run engine at idle speed for five minutes.
5. Check fluid level and condition. Refer to MA-40, "
Checking A/T Fluid" . If fluid is still dirty, repeat steps 2
through 5.
Checking Transfer OilELS000BT
Check for oil leakage and oil level.
(For details, refer to TF-10, "
