2009 INFINITI QX56 transmission

TM-194
< ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE >
ROAD TEST
When the transmission changes speed D3 → D4, return the accelerator pedal.
Does the A/T shift-up D3
→ D4 and apply the engine brake?
YES >> 1. Stop the vehicle. 2. See TM-194, "Cruise Test - Part 3"
.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Does Not Shift: D3 → D4” on the diagnostics worksheet, then con-
tinue the road test.
Cruise Test - Part 3INFOID:0000000003772031
1.CHECK SHIFT-DOWN
During D
5 driving, move gear selector from D → 4 → 3 → 2 → 1.
With CONSULT-III
Read the gear position.
Is downshifting correctly performed?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle does not shift” at the corresponding position (5th → 4th, 4th → 3rd,
3rd → 2nd, 2nd → 1st) on the diagnostics worksheet, then continue the road test.
2.CHECK ENGINE BRAKE
Does engine braking effectively reduce speed in 1
1 position?
YES >> 1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Carry out the self-diagnostics. Refer to TM-32, "CONSULT-III Function (TRANSMISSION)"
.
NO >> Enter a check mark at “Vehicle Does Not Decelerate By Engine Brake” on the diagnostics work- sheet, then continue trouble diagnosis.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Removal
1. Drain A/T fluid. Refer to TM-181, "Changing the A/T Fluid (ATF)".
2. Remove oil pan clips (1).
3. Remove oil pan (2).
4. Remove oil pan gasket.  : Vehicle front
 : Oil pan bolts
 Drain plug (3)
5. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine c ause of malfunction. If the A/T fluid is very dark, has
some burned smell, or contains foreign particles, friction material (clutches, band) may need replacement.
A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates varnis h build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and
clutches to stick and can inhibit pump pressure.
CAUTION:
If friction material is detected, flush th e transmission cooler after repair. Refer to TM-183, "A/T
Fluid Cooler Cleaning".
6. Remove magnets from oil pan.
Installation
1. Install the oil pan magnets as shown.

2. Install the oil pan and new oil pan gasket. : Vehicle front
 : Oil pan bolts
 Clips (1)
 Drain plug (3)
CAUTION:
 Be sure the oil pan drain plug hole is located to the rear ofthe transmission assembly.
 Before installing oil pan bolts, remove any traces of old sealant from the sealing su rfaces and threaded holes.
 Do not reuse the oil pan gasket.
 Always replace the oil pan bolts as they are self-sealing.
 Partially install the oil pan bolts in a criss- cross pattern to prevent dislocation of the gasket.
3. Install new oil pan bolts and clips tighten in numerical order as shown.
4. Install drain plug with new gasket to oil pan and tighten to speci- fication.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the drain plug gasket.
5. Refill the A/T with fluid and check for fluid leakage. Refer to TM-
179, "Checking the A/T Fluid (ATF)".
