Road Test

  1. Check for shift shock, positive shifts and shifting through all ranges. Ensure kickdown occurs within kickdown limits. See ROAD TEST SPECIFICATIONS  . Manually shift from "D" to "2" position. Shift should take place immediately and engine braking should occur.
  2. Manually shift from "D" to "2" to "L" position. Ensure appropriate downshift takes place with engine braking in 3rd and 2nd gear. With gear selector in "L" position, ensure transaxle does not upshift from 1st gear. With gear selector in "2" position, ensure no upshift from 2nd gear occurs.
  3. Depress O/D OFF button while transaxle is in 4th gear. Transaxle should downshift to 3rd gear and upshift once button is released.
  4. Ensure transaxle stays locked in "P" position. Compare actual shift speeds with specifications. See ROAD TEST SPECIFICATIONS  .
