8. Cool down the ATF.
CAUTION:
Run the engine at idle for at least one minute.

H: Stall speed higher than standard value
L: Stall speed lower than standard value

LINE PRESSURE TEST
Line Pressure Test Port
Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil and replenish if necessary.
2. Drive the car for about 10 minutes to warm it up so that the ATF reaches in range of 50 to 80 °C (122 to
176° F), then inspect the amount of ATF and replenish if necessary.
NOTE:
The automatic fluid temperature rises in range of 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176 °F) during 10 minutes of
driving. Stall speed: 2,500 - 2,800 rpm

3. After warming up remove the oil pressure detection plug and
install the oil pressure gauge [ST2505S001(J-34301-C)].
CAUTION:
When using the oil pressure gauge, be sure to use the O-
ring attached to the oil pressure detection plug.
4. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
5. Start the engine, then measure the line pressure at both idle and the stall speed.
CAUTION:
Keep the brake pedal pressed all the way down during
measurement.
When measuring the line pressure at the stall speed,
refer to AT- 5 1 , "
STALL TEST" .
6. After the measurements are complete, install the oil pressure detection plug and tighten to the regulation torque below.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the O-ring.
