TROUBLESHOOTING <M/T>

INTRODUCTION

M1221006900701

The manual transmission can exhibit any of the fol-
lowing symptoms: noise or vibration is generated, oil
leaks, shifting gears is hard or troublesome, or the
transmission jumps out of gear.
The causes of these symptoms could come from:
incorrect mounting, the oil level may be low, or a
component of the transmission may be faulty.

TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGY

M1221007000626

Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If
you follow them carefully, you will be sure that you
have exhausted most of the possible ways to find a
manual transmission fault.
1. Gather information from the customer.
2. Verify that the condition described by the

customer exists.

3. Find the malfunction by following the Symptom

Chart.

4. Verify malfunction is eliminated.

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1: Noise, vibration

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the idle speed.

Q: Does the idle speed meet the standard values?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Refer to GROUP 11A

− On-vehicle Service,

Idle Speed Check

P.11A-10

.

STEP 2. Check whether the transmission and

Q: Are the transmission and engine mount loose or

damaged?
YES :

Tighten or replace the part. Then go to Step

7.

NO :

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check that the oil level is up to the lower
edge of the filler plug hole.

Q: Is the oil level up to the lower edge of the filler plug

hole?
YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

Refill DIA QUEEN SUPER MULTI GEAR
75W

−85W (GL−4) or exact equivalent. Then

go to Step 7.

STEP 4. Check for the specified oil.

Q: Is the specified oil DIA QUEEN SUPER MULTI

GEAR 75W

−85W (GL−4) or exact equivalent?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

If in doubt, replace the oil. Refer to

P.22A-152

. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 5. Remove the transmission. Check the
axial play of the input and output shafts.

Q: Does the axial play of the input and output shafts

meet the standard value?
YES :

Go to Step 6.

NO :

Adjust the axial play of the input and output
shafts. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 6. Disassemble the transmission. Check
the gears for wear and damage.

Q: Are the gears worn or damaged?

YES :

Replace the gears. Go to Step 7.

NO :

Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Retest the systems.

Q: Is the noise or vibration still there?

YES :

Return to Step 1.

drive the vehicle for at 10 minutes. Then check the
leak again.

Q: Is the oil leak(s) found?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Check for the oil leaks around the engine.
Then go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Visual check at the clutch housing.

Q: Do oil leaks appear around the joint between the

engine and the clutch housing?
YES :

Remove the transmission. Check the input

shaft oil seal, and replace if necessary.
Then go to Step 4.

NO :

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the oil seal or O-ring for damage.

Q: Is the oil seal or O-ring damaged?

YES :

Replace the oil seal or the O-ring. Then go

to Step 4.

NO :

Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Retest the system.

Q: Is the oil still leaking?

YES :

Return to Step 1.

NO :

The procedure is complete.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 3: Hard shifting

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the transmission control

Q: Are the shift cable and the select cable in good

condition?
YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Repair or replace the shift cable and the
select cable. Refer to
