Oil Pressure – Main Pressure, Check (except Y 25 DT)

Caution

During this check, the brakes must be constantly actuated. Prior to checking fluid pressure check transmission fluid level, correct if necessary – see operation "Transmission Fluid Level, Check and Correct".

  Remove

Remove engine cover, if present. Unscrew threaded plug (1) on left transmission side (converter housing). Illustrations show vehicle with V6 engine.

Object Number: 2388079  Size: DEFAULT

  Install

Install Adapter KM-712-A (1) and connect Pressure Gauge KM-498-B (2).

  Inspect

Check fluid pressure with vehicle stationary, in gear and with engine running (idle speed). Test values – see following pages.

Torque

Install new threaded plugs for fluid pressure checking connection in transmission and tighten – 12 Nm / 9 lbf. ft.

Install engine cover, if present.

Caution

The stall speed is the maximum engine speed with gear selected and fully braked vehicle. Select gear, firmly actuate service and parking brake and keep accelerator pedal depressed for max. 10 seconds. Do not exceed this period of time as the transmission heats up very rapidly during this test. Before repeating the test, a pause must be made to allow the transmission to cool down.

The current consumption of the electro-hydraulic pressure regulator can be checked via diagnostic unit TECH 1, TECH 1A or TECH 2. The maximum main pressure valves are calculated for the current consumption pressure regulator solenoid valve stated in the tables.
