Excessive shock when starting off
Probable cause(s)
- TCM defective (1.5 L engine)
- PCM defective (except 1.5 L engine)
- Low transmission fluid (HCF-2) level
- Transmission fluid (HCF-2) deteriorated
- Transmission fluid strainer or CVTF warmer strainer clogged
- Pulley pressure feed pipe defective
- Forward clutch defective
- Reverse brake defective
- Reverse brake piston defective
- Valve body assembly defective
- Joint pipes defective
Notes
- Check the transmission fluid (HCF-2) level .
- Check the transmission fluid (HCF-2) condition. If necessary, replace the transmission fluid (HCF-2) .
- Check the transmission fluid strainer and the CVTF warmer strainer for debris. If the transmission fluid strainer or the CVTF warmer strainer is clogged, find the damaged components that caused debris.
- Check the pulley pressure feed pipe and the sealing ring for wear and damage.
- Inspect the clearance between the forward clutch end-plate and the top disc . If the clearance is out of tolerance, replace the input shaft assembly.
- Inspect the reverse brake piston and the O-rings. Check the spring retainer/return spring assembly for wear and damage. Inspect the clearance between the reverse brake end-plate and the top disc . If the clearance is out of tolerance, inspect the reverse brake discs and reverse brake plates for wear and damage. If the discs and plates are worn or damaged, replace them as a set. If they are OK, adjust the clearance with the reverse brake end-plate.
- Check the valve body assembly for wear and damage.
- Check the joint pipes and O-rings for wear and damage.
