  • This procedure contains illustrations showing certain components removed to provide extra clarity.
  1. The following steps must be observed before starting the automatic transmission fluid level check.
  2. CAUTION:
    • Using Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) approved diagnostic equipment, make sure the transmission temperature is 40°C±10°C 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.
    • Make sure that the automatic transmission is not in the default mode.
    • If this is the case, stop and correct the cause first and then restart the automatic transmission fluid level check.
  4. CAUTION: Make sure the automatic transmission fluid control system is filled with oil.

    • Select reverse gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select drive, then manual first gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select second gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select PARK (P) on the Transmission Control Switch (TCS).
  5. NOTE: Make sure the torque converter is completely filled with oil.
    • Raise the engine speed to 2000 Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) and hold for 30 seconds. Then return to idle speed.
  6. 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 PARK (P) position, then proceed with the automatic 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 automatic transmission fluid level check.
    • The target automatic transmission oil temperature is 40°C.
  7. CAUTION: Only continue with the automatic transmission fluid level check if the transmission temperature is 40°C±10°C.
    • Start the engine, if not already idling.
    • Maintain the engine idle speed.
  8. Raise and support the vehicle on a suitable 2 post lift.

    Refer to: JACKING AND LIFTING

  9. NOTE: This step requires the aid of another technician.

    • Make sure the automatic transmission fill plug is torqued to the correct specification. Use 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.
    • Step 5. Tighten the automatic transmission fluid fill plug to the torque given by the calculation.
    • Remove the special tool.
