Transmission and Transmission Fluid Cooler
Transmission and Transmission Fluid Cooler
This is a "Trustmark Authoring Standards (TAS) Repair Procedure"
- TAS style procedures can be identified by steps that have no accompanying step text and the magenta color of the electrical connectors and fasteners such as nuts, bolts, clamps or clips.
- TAS removal and installation procedures use a sequence of color illustrations to indicate the order to be followed when removing/disassembling or installing/assembling a component.
- Many of the TAS procedures will have the installation information within the removal steps.
- The TAS color illustrations use a variety of symbols to indicate important details of the procedures. It is important to understand these symbols in order to properly used the TAS procedures.
Refer to How to Use TAS Procedures and TAS Symbol Glossary at Vehicle | Description and Operation for additional information on these TAS procedures.

NOTE:
Mark the position of the driveshaft on the transmission flange.
CAUTION: Under no circumstances must the flexible coupling (or its fixings) be loosened or removed from the driveshaft.
WARNING: Make sure that the transmission is secured with suitable retaining straps.
NOTE:
Some variation in the illustrations may occur, but the essential information is always correct.
2 Align the powertrain assembly jack to the transmission.
NOTE:
The transmission is lowered for access.
3 Lower the rear of the transmission for access.
NOTE:
The transmission is lowered for access.
CAUTION: Make sure that the torque converter remains in the transmission.

3 Check and top up the cooling system as required.
4 Set the heater controls to HOT.
CAUTION: Observe the engine temperature warning light. If the warning light is displayed, switch off immediately and allow to cool. Failure to follow this instruction may cause damage to the vehicle.
5 Start the engine and allow to idle until hot air is emitted at the face registers.
CAUTION: Observe the engine temperature warning light. If the warning light is displayed, switch off immediately and allow to cool. Failure to follow this instruction may cause damage to the vehicle.
6 Raise the engine speed to 2000 RPM and maintain at 2000 RPM until the engine cooling fan operates.
CAUTION: Switch off the engine and allow the coolant temperature to go cold.
7 Switch the engine off and allow to cool.
8 Visually check the engine and cooling system for signs of coolant leakage.
WARNING: When releasing the cooling system pressure, cover the coolant expansion tank cap with a thick cloth.
WARNING: Since injury such as scalding could be caused by escaping steam or coolant, make sure the vehicle cooling system is cool prior to carrying out this procedure.
CAUTION: Make sure the coolant level remains above the "COLD FILL RANGE" lower level mark.
CAUTION: Anti-freeze concentration must be maintained at 50%.
NOTE:
When the cooling system is warm, the coolant will be approximately 10mm above the upper level mark on the expansion tank with the cap removed.
9 Check and top-up the coolant if required.
