Checking the fluid level
Note: Vehicle must be driven before normal operating temperature is reached (70-80°С) automatic transmission fluid.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake.
2. While the engine is running at idle speed, while holding the brake pedal, move the selector to all positions from "R" before "L" and put it back in position "R".
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it dry.
4. Fully insert the dipstick into the nozzle.
5. Remove the dipstick: the fluid level must be between the "HOT" marks" (warmed up). If the level is below this range, add fluid.
Working fluid:
- A140L, A140E - DEXRON
- A540H - Toyota TYPE T
Note: Castrol Transmax Z fluid is equivalent to Toyota TYPE T fluid.
Note: Do not overfill above the set level.
Checking the condition of the working fluid
If the fluid smells burnt, has darkened or become viscous, change it. To determine fluidity, compare it with fresh working fluid using a paper towel. Normal working fluid is easily absorbed by the paper, while bad working fluid is absorbed slowly.
Changing the working fluid
Note: when changing the automatic transmission fluid. it is also recommended to replace the automatic transmission filter (see chapter "Automatic transmission").
1. Unscrew the drain plug and drain the working fluid.
3. Install a new gasket and tighten the automatic transmission drain plug.
- Tightening torque - 49 Nm
4. Fill with fresh fluid through the filler tube to the lower range mark "COOL" (cold).
Working fluid:
- A140L, A140E - DEXRON III
- A540H - Toyota TYPE T
Note: Castrol Transmax Z automatic transmission fluid is an analogue of Toyota TYPE T fluid.
Volume of liquid to be filled (when replacing):
- A140L, A140E - 2.5l
- А540Н - 3.5 l
5. Start the engine at idle and move the selector to all positions from "R" before "L" and back to position "R".
6. While the engine is running at idle, check the fluid level. Add fluid to the level "COOL" on the probe.
7. Check fluid level at normal operating temperature (70-80°C) and top up if necessary.
Note: Do not overfill above the set level.
Checking the fluid level in the differential (A140L, A140E)
1. Turn away a jellied stopper and check up level of a working liquid in differential.
Replacing the working fluid in the differential (A140L, A140E)
1. Turn away a stopper of a drain aperture and a jellied mouth. Drain the working fluid.
2. Install a new gasket and screw in the drain plug.
3. Fill with fresh fluid until it flows out of the filler hole
