CAUTION: When degreasing and if degreaser is used, use a rag saturated with degreaser and be careful not to allow degreaser to penetrate the interior of the transaxle.
In addition, after degreasing, visually verify that there is no foreign matter (such as old sealant, cloth fibers) which has penetrated the interior of the transaxle.
3. Apply sealant (silicone sealant TB1217E) to the oil pan.
CAUTION: If sealant is applied excessively or applied to a part other than the indicated part, the sealant could penetrate the transaxle inside. Apply an appropriate amount of sealant to the indicated part.

2. Using chain hoists, remove the SST (engine stand) from the transaxle.
A : Part number: 9YA02 A220, or M12x1.75 bolt, length to 40 mm {1.6 in}
CAUTION: When removing the transaxle from the SST (engine stand) using chain hoists, be careful not to allow the transaxle to contact the SST (engine stand). If the transaxle contacts the SST, check the areas that made contact and replace damaged parts with new ones.
3. Remove the SSTs.
A : Part number: 9YA02 1015, or M10x1.5 bolt, length to 35 mm {1.4 in}
4. Disassemble the SST.
A : Part number: 9YA02 1440, or M14x1.5 bolt, length to 100 mm {3.94 in}
57. Assemble a new hose clamp using the following procedure:
CAUTION: If a hose clamp is reused it could cause ATF leakage, therefore use a new hose clamp.
1. Assemble the new hose clamp to the position shown in the figure.
CAUTION: Assemble the hose clamp tab to within the range shown in the figure.
A : 210°
2. Verify that the hose clamp is assembled to within the position shown in the figure.
A : Hose clamp assembly area
B : Hose clamp
C : Oil seal flange
CAUTION: Verify that the hose clamp does not contact the oil seal flange.
- If not within the area, adjust so that the hose clamp assembly position is within the area.
58. Assemble the dipstick using the following procedure:.
1. Assemble a new O-ring using the following procedure:
CAUTION: If an O-ring is reused it could cause ATF leakage, therefore use a new O-ring.
NOTE: O-ring size: Outer diameter approx. 16.6 mm {0.654 in}, thickness approx. 2.4 mm {0.094 in}
1. Apply ATF (ATF FZ) to the new O-ring.
2. Assemble the new O-ring.
