Change Fluid

If you have a fluid changer, replace the fluid by the changer.
If you do not have a fluid changer, replace the fluid by the
following procedure.
1. Disconnect the hose shown in the illustration which

connects the transaxle and the oil cooler (inside the
radiator). Place a container under the hose to collect the
discharge.

CAUTION

The engine should be stopped within one minute after it is
started. If the fluid has all drained out before then, the
engine should be stopped at that point.
2. Start the engine and let the fluid drain out.

Running conditions: "N" range with engine idling

Discharge volume: Approximately 3.5 dm

3

(3.7 quarts)

3. Remove the drain plug from the bottom of the transaxle case

to drain the fluid.

Discharge volume: Approximately 2.0 dm

3

(2.1 quarts)

4. Install the drain plug with a new gasket, and tighten it to the

specified torque.

Tightening torque: 32 N

⋅⋅⋅⋅

m (24 ft-lb)

5. Pour new fluid in through the oil filler tube.

Adding volume: Approximately 5.5 dm

3

(5.8 quarts)

CAUTION

Stop pouring if the full volume of fluid cannot be poured in.

6. Repeat the procedure in Step 2. (to pump out the rest of the

contaminated fluid)

NOTE: Check the fluid for contamination or burnt smell. If
fluid is still contaminated or burnt, repeat steps 5 and 6
before proceeding to step 7.

7. Pour the new fluid in through the oil filler tube.

Discharge volume: Approximately 3.5 dm

3

(3.7 quarts)

8. Reconnect the hose which was disconnected in step 1

above, and firmly replace the dipstick.

9. Start the engine and run it at idle for 1

2 minutes.

10. Move the selector lever through all positions, and then

move it to the "N" position.

11.Check that the fluid level is at the "COLD" mark on the

dipstick. If the level is lower than this, pour in more fluid.

12.Drive the vehicle until the fluid temperature rises to the

normal temperature [70

80

°

C (158

176

°

F)], and then

check the fluid level again. If it takes some amount of time
until the A/T fluid reaches its normal operating temperature
[70

80

°

C (158

176

°

F)], check the A/T fluid level by

referring to the diagram at left. The fluid level must be at the
"HOT" mark.

NOTE: The A/T fluid temperature is measured with scan tool
MB991502. The "COLD" level is for reference only; the
"HOT" level should be regarded as the standard level.

13. Firmly insert the dipstick into the oil filler tube.

13. ENGINE COOLANT (CHANGE)

M1001003100119

Check the cooling system parts such as the radiator, heater
and hoses, thermostat and the connections for leakage and
damage.

Changing Coolant

Use the specified engine coolant (Refer to

P.00-32

.).

1. Set the temperature control knob to the "HOT" position.

2. Let the engine operate until the engine coolant warms, and

then stop the engine.

CAUTION

When removing the radiator cap, use care to avoid contact
with hot coolant or steam. Place a shop towel over the cap
and turn the cap counterclockwise a little to let the
pressure escape through the vinyl tube. After relieving the
steam pressure, remove the cap by slowly turning it
counterclockwise.
3. Remove the radiator cap, radiator drain plug and engine

drain plug to drain the coolant.

4. Remove the reserve tank and drain the coolant.

5. After completely draining the coolant, reinstall the drain

plugs and flush the engine and radiator using a radiator
cleaning fluid.

6. After the flushing is completed, completely drain the

cleaning fluid and install the radiator drain plug and engine
drain plug.

7. By referring to the SELECTION OF COOLANT section,

select an appropriate concentration for safe operating
temperature within the range of 30 to 60%. Refill the coolant
at the selected concentration. A convenient mixture is a 50%
water and 50% antifreeze solution [freezing point:

31

°

C (

32.8

°

F)].

Engine coolant total capacity (including coolant
reserve tank):

<2.4L Engine> 7.0 dm

3

(7.4 quarts)

<3.0L Engine> 8.0 dm

3

(8.5 quarts)

CAUTION

Do not use alcohol or methanol anti-freeze or any engine
coolants mixed with alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The
use of an improper anti-freeze can cause the corrosion of
the aluminum components.
8. Reinstall the radiator cap.

9. Start the engine and let it warm up until the thermostat

opens.

10.After repeatedly revving the engine up to 3,000 r/min

several times, then stop the engine.

11.Remove the radiator cap after the engine has become cold,

and pour in coolant up to the brim. Reinstall the cap.

CAUTION

Do not overfill the reserve tank.
12.Add coolant to the reserve tank between the "FULL" and

"LOW" mark if necessary.

14. DISC BRAKE PADS (CHECK FOR WEAR)

M1001003200116

Check for fluid contamination and wear. Replace the complete
set of pads if defective.

Thickness of lining
Minimum limit: 2.0 mm (0.08 inch)

CAUTION

The pads for the right and left wheels should be replaced
at the same time. Never split or intermix brake pad sets. All
four pads must be replaced as a complete set.

15. REAR DRUM BRAKE LININGS AND REAR
WHEEL CYLINDERS (CHECK FOR WEAR AND
LEAKS)

M1001003300102

1. Remove the brake drum and check the thickness of brake

shoe lining for wear. Check the automatic brake adjusting
system by hand to see if it operates smoothly. Also see if the
gears are in proper mesh with each other. To assure smooth
operation, apply a very thin coat of multipurpose grease to
the friction surface of the adjuster and link shaft.

CAUTION

The shoes for the right and left wheels should be replaced
at the same time. Never split or intermix brake shoe sets.
All four shoes must be replaced as a complete set.
2. Inspect the wheel cylinder boot for evidence of a brake fluid

leak. Visually check the boot for cuts, tears or heat cracks.
(A slight amount of fluid on the boot may not be a leak, but
may be preservative fluid used at assembly.) Check the
Brake Shoes for Wear.

Thickness of lining

Minimum limit: 1.0 mm (0.04 inch)

16. BRAKE HOSES (CHECK FOR
DETERIORATION OR LEAKS)

M1001003400110

Inspection of brake hoses and tubing should be included in all
brake service operations.
The hoses should be checked for:
1. Correct length, severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or

worn spots. (If the fabric casing of the hoses is exposed by
cracks or abrasion in the rubber hose cover, the hoses
should be replaced. Eventual deterioration of the hose and
possible bursting failure may occur.)

2. Incorrect installation, casing twisting or interference with

wheel, tire or chassis.
