    • Install the fluid filler plug, but only finger tight at this stage.
    • Remove the container under the vehicle to avoid damage.
  3. Make sure that the transmission is not in the default mode, if this is the case, stop and correct the cause first and then restart the fluid level check.
  4. CAUTION: Using the Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) approved diagnostic equipment, make sure the transmission temperature is between 30°C (85°F) and 50°C (122°F) before starting the automatic transmission fluid level check.
    • Connect the Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) approved diagnostic equipment to the vehicle.

      General Equipment:  Jaguar Land Rover approved diagnostic equipment

    • Start the engine and allow to idle.
    • Switch off the Air Conditioning (A/C) system and other electrical components.
  5. CAUTION: Make sure the automatic transmission fluid control system is filled with oil.
    • Apply and hold the brake pedal.
    • Select reverse gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select drive, then manual 1st gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select 2nd gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select Park (P) on the Transmission Control Switch (TCS).
  6. NOTE: Make sure the torque converter is completely filled with oil.
    • Raise the engine speed to 2000 rpm and hold for 30 seconds. Then return to idle speed.
  7. NOTE: After completing the preparation, proceed to the automatic transmission fluid level check.
    • If the transmission oil temperature is lower than 30°C. Allow the transmission to warm up with the engine idling in the P position, then proceed with the transmission fluid level check.
    • If the transmission oil temperature is above 50°C, switch off the engine and allow the transmission to cool down, then restart the fluid level check.
  8. Switch the engine off.
  9. CAUTION: Make sure when checking the automatic transmission fluid level, that this procedure is followed. Failure to do so can cause damage to the vehicle.

    Check and top-up the transmission fluid level. Refer to: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL CHECK

    • To make sure the transmission fill plug is torqued to the correct specification. Using the special tool and torque wrench the following calculation steps must be followed.
    • Step 1. Multiply 35 Nm by the effective length of the torque wrench (1).
    • Step 2. Add the effective length of the special tool (2) to the effective length of the torque wrench (1).
    • Step 3. Divide the total of step 1 by the total of step 2.
    • Step 4. Set the torque wrench to the figure arrived at in step 3.
    • Tighten the transmission fluid fill plug to the torque given by the calculation.
