Table 6-1 Frequent problem diagnosisPossible causes
Transmission or the engine is suspended loosely or damaged;
Axial gap is improper;
Gear or bearing is worn or damaged;
Unsatisfactory transmission oil is used or oil level is low;
Engine idle is incorrect.
The oil seal or the O-ring is damaged.
The control cable is unqualified;
Synchronizer is poorly contacted with gear or worn;
Elasticity of the synchronous spring is insufficient;
Unqualified transmission oil is used.
Fork of the shift gear is worn or lifting spring is broken;
Gap between the synchronizer bush and the sleeve spline is too large;
Gear or bearing is worn or damaged. Sympton
Vibration and noise
Oil leakage of the transmission

Figure 7-3Automatic Transaxle Assembly Hydraulic Torque Converter and Transaxle3-31Figure 7-5 Figure 7-4Figure 7-1
Figure 7-23. Install transmission in the engine, its way like manual transmission. The torque converter cannot be allowed to
move in axial motion during operating (The dimension of A keeps constant). Install starter in the transmission
housing.
4. Connect Flexibility plate with torque converter, using 3 special bolts. The way is as follows. First, assemble one
bolt in the torque converter by the longer hole of the Flexibility plate, and then rotate engine belt pulley to install
the other bolts, finally use torque spanner to tighten the bolts. Tightening torque is 40~50N.m.
5. Install suspension bolt and drive shaft LH&RH, the assembling way like manual transmission.
6. Connect two cooling pipes as showed in the figure 7-3 with the corresponding pipe of transmission with clip.
7. Connect the cable between bracket of throttle and transmission actuator.
8. Throttle valve cable adjustment as follows:
First, use pliers to clip the hexangular position under throttle valve cable.Turn 60°~90°counterclockwise,
and lift throttle valve cable to make throttle valve cable adjustable move to top position, and then turn back
60°~90° clockwise, meanwhile, make it lock (See figure 7-4). Finally put accelerator pedal to end position.
When throttle valve makes "ka-ka" sound, the distance under the throttle valve should meet B=2~8mm. If not,
try again until the gap B=2~8mm under the throttle valve (see figure 7-5), if gap B=2-8mm, throttle valve cable
adjustment is finished.Central
