ISSUE:
Some vehicles may leak fluid from the pump-to-case interface area of the transaxle. This may be caused by the pump body seal being rolled or pinched
during installation.
ACTION:
If a fluid leak is detected in the pump-to-case interface area, refer to the following service procedure to replace the pump body seal.
This procedure does not require complete teardown of the transaxle and should only be used for leak concerns. If replacement of the pump body or pump
support is required, the transaxle must be disassembled and reassembled following the Service Manual procedure. The components will be misaligned if
this repair is performed while the transaxle is still in the vehicle.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1.
Remove the transaxle from the vehicle. Refer to Section 07-01 of the appropriate Service Manual for removal procedures.
2.
Remove the torque converter from the transaxle and drain. Refer to Figure 1.
