[Operating components: C1 clutch, B2 brake]
• When the engine brake is operating, driving force is transmitted from the tires. Because the rear planetary
carrier, which is locked in its counterclockwise rotation by the one-way clutch, tries to rotate clockwise, B2 brake
is turned ON and the rear planetary carrier is locked, and kinematic energy is transmitted from the tires to the
engine.

Engine brake
• When the engine brake is operating, driving force is transmitted from the tires.
• When the rotation of the clutch rises, centrifugal force operates on the oil inside the clutch, hydraulic pressure
rises, and the clutch is engaged at an earlier timing. Because of this, a difference arises in rotation between the
input shaft and the output shaft, and shift shock may occur. To solve this, an additional chamber has been
provided opposite the piston hydraulic pressure chamber. This causes centrifugal hydraulic pressure to operate
in the opposite direction with the same force as the piston, counteracting that pressure.

TORQUE CONVERTER OUTLINE
id051700100700
• The torque converter is composed of the converter cover, pump impeller, turbine runner, stator, one-way clutch,
and TCC. The torque converter transmits and amplifies torque by means of the ATF inside it. In addition, the
use of the TCC is intended to improve fuel economy as a direct coupling between the engine and automatic
transaxle.
• Simple operations which can be performed easily just by looking at the vehicle (i.e., removal/installation of
parts, jacking, vehicle lifting, cleaning of parts, and visual inspection) have been omitted.
Service Procedure

Conversion to SI Units (Système International d'Unités)
• All numerical values in this manual are based on SI units. Numbers shown in conventional units are converted
from these values.
Rounding Off
• Converted values are rounded off to the same number of places as the SI unit value. For example, if the SI unit
value is 17.2 and the value after conversion is 37.84, the converted value will be rounded off to 37.8.
Upper and Lower Limits
• When the data indicates upper and lower limits, the converted values are rounded down if the SI unit value is
an upper limit, and rounded up if the SI unit value is a lower limit. Therefore, converted values for the same SI
unit value may differ after conversion. For example, consider 2.7 kgf/cm
are 265 kPa and 38.4 psi. In the first specification, 2.7 is used as
2
in the following specifications:
an upper limit, so the converted values are rounded down to 260 and 38. In the second specification, 2.7 is
used as a lower limit, so the converted values are rounded up to 270 and 39.

Disassembly
• If the disassembly procedure is complex,
requiring many parts to be disassembled, all parts
should be marked in a place that will not affect
their performance or external appearance, and
identified so that reassembly can be performed
easily and efficiently.
Inspection During Removal, Disassembly
• When removed, each part should be carefully
inspected for malfunction, deformation, damage
and other problems.

Hose Clamps
• When reinstalling, position the hose clamp in the
original location on the hose and squeeze the
clamp lightly with large pliers to ensure a good fit.
Torque Formulas
• When using a torque wrench-SST or equivalent
combination, the specified torque must be
recalculated due to the extra length that the SST
or equivalent adds to the torque wrench.
Recalculate the torque by using the following
formulas. Choose the formula that applies to you.

Transfer Component Assembly Procedure
Note
• Before applying silicone sealant, completely clean off any old silicone sealant and remove any oil or
grease.
• After applying silicone sealant, install the drive gear case within 10 min.
• After connecting the sealing area, leave it for 30 min. or more, then add transfer oil.
1. Clean the alignment surface of the front carrier and drive gear case, and lightly apply silicone sealant.
2. Assemble the transfer component.
Tightening torque
19— 27 N·m {2.0— 2.7 kgf·m, 14.1— 19.9 ft·lbf}
3. Install the oil cooler.
4. Tighten the oil cooler installation bolt with a O-ring.
The following are precautions that must be followed when performing removal/installation.
1. Handle electronic parts with care
• Do not pull the wiring harness forcibly when disconnecting the connector. Unlock the lock first and pull the
connector.
• When connecting the connector, verify to insert it until it is properly locked. (Verify that a click sound is
heard.)
• Do not shock electronic parts. Replace with new parts if they have been dropped or subjected to shock.
2. Prevent foreign matter from penetrating
• Be sure to remove foreign matter such as dust and sand from the automatic transaxle before removing
parts.
• Protect removed parts from dust with an object such as a vinyl sheet.
• Do not use cotton work gloves or shop rags as frayed strings might get caught in the unit. Thus work with
bare hands or use vinyl gloves.
3. Prevent scratching
• Do not pry with a screwdriver forcibly. Slightly hit the case with a plastic hammer when separating
component cases at seams.
• Do not pull the valve forcibly.
• Be careful not to get the wire harness caught between parts during installation.
4. Prevent incorrect installation and lack of or missing parts
• Be careful not to install parts incorrectly or lose parts since there are similar types of O-rings, snap rings,
bearings and races. Take great care for straightening parts and checking installation direction.
• Be careful not to drop small parts such as check balls or lose them during installation.
5. Wash parts and apply oil
• Wash each part before installing and dry using compressed air, and then apply the specified ATF type
JWS3309.
• Soak disks in ATF type JWS3309 before installing. In particular, soak new disks for 2 h or more so that the
oil seeps into the lining.
• If the thrust bearing or race falls during installation, use a small amount of yellow petrolatum grease.
• Apply ATF type JWS3309 to contact and rotating surfaces.
• Do not apply oil or drive the vehicle immediately after installing a part applied with sealant. Leave it for one
hour or more.
• Do not wash aluminum parts or rubber parts with alkaline chemicals.
• Do not wash the rubber parts with white gasoline.
6. Handling ATF with care
• If you spill ATF on the floor, wipe it off immediately, as it is quite slippery and dangerous.
