Shogun 4 ATF Change

This document provides instructions for flushing the automatic transmission (A/T) fluid cooler line before performing transmission work. It involves removing the cooler line hose, starting the engine to discharge old fluid, draining the transmission case, refilling with new fluid, and checking and adjusting the fluid level when hot. The process ensures any contaminated fluid is removed from the cooler line.

A/T FLUID CHANGE

Before replacing the


transmission with a
new one,
overhauling the
existing
transmission, or
caution
connecting the
cooler pipe to the
transmission, the
A/T fluid cooler line
should always be
flushed out.

In you have an A/T fluid changer, use the A/T fluid


changer to flush the A/T fluid. If you do not have an A/T
fluid changer, follow the procedure given below.
1.Remove the hose shown in the illustration
which allows the A/T fluid to flow from the A/T
fluid cooler to the transmission.
2.
The engine should be stopped
within one minute of it being
caution started. If the A/T fluid has all
been discharged before this,
stop the engine at that point.
Start the engine and discharge the A/T fluid.
Driving conditions: N range, idling
Discharge amount: Approx. 3.5 L
3.Remove the drain plug at the bottom of the
transmission case to drain out the remaining A/T
fluid.
Discharge amount: Approx. 2.0 L
4.Install the drain plug with a new gasket in
between, and tighten it to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 32 ± 2 N·m
5.
Stop pouring in the A/T fluid
caution
once 5.5 L has been poured in.
Pour the new A/T fluid in through the oil filler
tube.
Amount to add: Approx. 5.5 L
6.Repeat the operation in step 2.
7.Pour in new A/T fluid through the oil filler
tube.
Amount to add: Approx. 3.5 L
Carry out steps 2 and 7 so that at
least 8.0 L has been discharged
from the cooler hose. After this,
note discharge a small quantity of A/T
fluid and check for contamination.
If the A/T fluid is contaminated,
repeat steps 6 and 7.
8.Connect the hose which was disconnected in
step 1, and then securely re-insert the oil level
gauge.
9.Start the engine, and let it run at idle for 1 - 2
minutes.
10.Move the selector lever to all positions once,
and then return it to the N position.

11.Check that the A/T fluid level on the oil level


gauge is at the COLD mark. if it is not up to this
mark, add more A/T fluid.

12.Drive the vehicle until the A/T fluid


temperature reaches the normal temperature (70
- 80°C), and then re check the A/T fluid level.
The COLD mark is for reference
only; the HOT marks should be
note
used as the standard for
judgement.
A/T fluid temperature using
note
M.U.T.-III.
Check the fluid level referring to
the characteristics chart shown if
note it takes some time until reaching
the normal operation temperature
of A/T fluid (70 - 80°C.)
13.When A/T fluid is under the specified level,
top up A/T fluid. When A/T fluid is over the
specified level, drain the excessive A/T fluid
from the drain plug to adjust A/T fluid level to
the specified level.
14.Securely insert the oil level gauge into the oil
filler tube.
