Leaf Node
| | Transmission, fitting | 1. | Attach the lifting eye and lifting wire to the transmission. | 2. | Fit the special tool to hold the torque converter in position while fitting the transmission. 6-cyl: special tool 87 92 285. 4-cyl: special tool 87 92 277. | 3. | Position the transmission under the car. | 4. | Attach the lifting wire to the transmission and hoist. | Note Note | Make sure that all cables are situated so that they will not be in the way when the transmission is lifted into place. | 5. | Lift the transmission into place. | 6. | 6-cyl: Screw in 2 of the 3 upper retaining bolts. 4-cyl: Screw in the 3 upper retaining bolts. Tightening torque 75 Nm (55 lbf ft). | 7. | Detach the lifting wire from the hoist and transmission. | 8. | Lift up the engine and transmission by means of the lifting beam. | 9. | Raise the car. | 10. | 6-cyl: Screw in the last of the three upper retaining bolts. Tightening torque 75 Nm (55 lbf ft). Screw in the lower retaining bolts securing the transmission to the engine. | 11. | Screw the front engine mount in place. | 12. | Secure the torque converter to the driver plate by means of one of the six bolts and remove the tool holding the torque converter in position. | Note Note | Secure the torque converter retaining bolts with locking fluid. | 13. | Fit the five remaining bolts securing the torque converter to the driver plate. 60 Nm (44 lbf ft) (4-cyl.). . | Note Note | The crankshaft will have to be rotated in order to fit all the bolts. | 14. | Fit the splash plate (secured with 2 bolts). Tightening torque: 7 Nm (5 lbf ft). | 15. | Fit the intermediate shaft to the right-hand drive shaft. 6 cyl. The intermediate shaft is secured with 2 bolts. 4 cyl. Drive the bush back into the generator bolt's bracket on the intermediate shaft's bracket. Mount the bracket on the engine. Swing the generator down and fit the lower generator bolt. | Note Note | Check the upper generator bolt when the transmission has been fitted. | 16. | Fit the right-hand drive shaft to the intermediate shaft (splined connection). | 17. | Fit the left-hand drive shaft (splined connection). | Note Note | Check that the splined connection has "clicked" in place properly by pulling and tugging the wheel hub. | 18. | After replacement of the transmission, the cooling circuit must be cleaned. See . | 19. | Fit the inlet and outlet hoses for cooling the transmission fluid. Make sure that they do not rest against the subframe. Tightening torque 22 Nm (16 lbf ft). | 20. | Fit the subframe. | | • | Position the subframe on the lifting table and raise the subframe until it is about 1-2 cm from the car. | | • | Fit the nuts on the end pieces. | | • | Raise the subframe fully. | | • | Fit the other retaining bolts and tighten the nuts on the end pieces. | | • | | Note Note | Washers are fitted on the two rear retaining bolts. | | • | Lower the lifting table and remove same. | 21. | Fit the front section of the exhaust pipe. | 22. | Fit the oxygen sensor cable in its lower bracket. 6-cyl: 2 oxygen sensors. 4-cyl: 1 oxygen sensor. | 23. | Fit the air deflectors and cover in the front right-hand wheel housing. | 24. | Fit the front wheels. 120 Nm (89 lbf ft) light alloy wheels. | 25. | Lower the car to the floor. | 26. | Remove the holder and lifting beam. | 27. | Plug in the oxygen sensors' connectors. 6-cyl: 4 oxygen sensors. 4-cyl: 2 oxygen sensors. | 28. | Fasten the oxygen sensor cable in its upper bracket (front of engine). | | - | | Note Note | The front cable for the 6-cylinder engine and the cable for the 4-cylinder engine should be run behind the lower water pipe so that the cable cannot move forwards against the exhaust pipe. | 29. | Plug in the transmission's electrical connectors (located on a bracket behind the battery). | 30. | Secure the leads to the automatic transmission. | 31. | Fit the selector lever wire by first fastening it to the selector lever arm on the transmission and then to the wire bracket on the transmission. | 32. | Connect the breather hose. | 33. | Mount the dipstick with tube in the transmission and secure with a retaining bolt. 6-cyl: Secure to the stud for the selector lever arm. 4-cyl: Secure to the crankcase cover. | 34. | Fit the cable to the sleeve with clips. | 35. | Connect the battery's negative cable to the grounding point on the valve housing. | 36. | Refit the battery. | 37. | Fill up with transmission fluid. | 38. | Check the gear-shifting play and, if necessary, adjust the position of the selector lever. See . | 39. | Drive the car on test at varying engine loads and speeds for 5 minutes and obtain readouts of any diagnostic trouble codes that are generated.
