  • After replacement, always perform CVT fluid leakage check.
  1. Select "Data Monitor" in "TRANSMISSION" using CONSULT.
  2. Select "FLUID TEMP" and confirm that the CVT fluid temperature is 40 deg.C (104 deg.F) or less.
  3. Check that the selector lever 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 .
