CVT Fluid: Replacement

CVT fluid and fluid capacity : Refer to FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
CAUTION:
  • Always use shop paper. Never use shop cloth.
  • Replace a drain plug gasket with new ones at the final stage of the operation when installing.
  • Use caution when looking into the drain hole as there is a risk of dripping fluid entering the eye.
  • After replacement, always perform CVT fluid leakage check.
  1. Select "Data List" in "TRANSMISSION" using M.U.T.-III SE.
  2. Select "FLUID TEMP" and confirm that the CVT fluid temperature is 40°C (104°F) or less.
  3. Check that the shift position is in the "P" position, then completely engage the parking brake.
  4. Lift up the vehicle.
  5. Remove the drain plug and drain the CVT fluid from the oil pan. Refer to EXPLODED VIEW .
  6. Install the drain plug to oil pan.
    CAUTION: Drain plug gasket use the old one.

  18. Remove the drain plug, and then drain CVT fluid from oil pan.
  19. Repeat steps  8 to  18 (one time).
  20. Tighten the drain plug to the specified torque. Refer to EXPLODED VIEW .
  21. Remove the overflow plug.
  22. Install the charging pipe set [SST: KV311039S0 (-)] with CVT stand pipe adapter kit [SST: - (J-52584)] into the overflow plug hole.
