INSPECTION

Check for leakage of CVTF from transmission.

Check that there is no leakage of differential gear oil from the converter case.

CAUTIONMake sure no other person is around the vehicle during stall test measurement.

Note. Stall test is extremely important in diagnosing the condition of CVT and engine. The test is necessary to measure the engine stall speeds in "R" and "D" range.

Purposes of the stall test

  1. Operational check of forward clutch and reverse brake
  2. Operational check of the torque converter assembly
  3. Engine performance check
  1. Place wheel chocks at the front and rear of all wheels and engage the parking brake.
  2. Turn the A/C OFF.
  3. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, check if the throttle valve operates when you depress the accelerator pedal. Refer to «DISPLAY OF ENGINE FREEZE FRAME DATA»(ref-565182-S42652795882013071000000) .
  4. Check the engine oil level. Refer to «ENGINE OIL»(ref-565156-S07435495832013071000000) .
  5. Check the coolant level. Refer to «ENGINE COOLANT»(ref-565166-S16474887242013071000000) .
  6. Adjust the CVTF level. Refer to «ADJUSTMENT»(ref-565171-S15048869762013071000000) .
  7. Increase the CVTF temperature to 60 - 80°C (140 - 176°F) with the engine running and the select lever shifted to "N" or "P" range.
  8. Shift the select lever to "D" range.
  9. Depress the accelerator pedal to the full while fully depressing the foot brake pedal with your left foot.
  10. When the engine speed stabilizes, quickly record the engine speed and release accelerator pedal. Shift the select lever to "N" range. Let the engine idle for one minute or more to cool it down.
  11. Shift to "R" range and perform the same stall test. NOTE: Do not perform a stall test for over 5 seconds at a time. (from closed throttle, fully open throttle to stall speed reading.) Failure to follow this instruction will cause the engine oil and CVTF to deteriorate and the clutch and brake to be adversely affected. Be sure to cool down the engine for at least one minute after each stall test with the select lever set in the "P" or "N" range and with the idle speed of 1, 200 rpm or less. If the stall speed is higher than the specified range, attempt to finish the stall test in as short a time as possible, in order to prevent the CVT from sustaining damage. Stall speed standard: D range: 2, 000 - 2, 700 rpm R range: 1, 900 - 2, 600 rpm STALL TEST JUDGMENT Range Range Probable cause Lower than standard value D, R Insufficient engine output Torque converter malfunction Higher than standard value D Forward clutch slippage Secondary pressure (line pressure) is low. Variator chain malfunction R Reverse brake slippage Secondary pressure (line pressure) is low. Variator chain malfunction D, R Torque converter malfunction Control valve body malfunction TCM malfunction Damaged harness and harness connector

Note. When the select lever is shifted while the engine is idling, there will be a certain time elapse or lag before shock is felt. This symptom helps to check the condition of forward clutch and reverse brake.

  1. Perform the test at normal operation CVTF temperature of 60 - 80°C (140 - 176°F).
  2. Be sure to allow one minute or more interval between tests.
  3. Make three measurements and take the average value.
  1. Apply the parking brake.
  2. Start the engine. Check the idle speed. (A/C OFF)
  3. Shift the select lever from "N" to "D" range. Using a stop watch, measure the time elapsed from shifting the lever until the shock is felt. Time lag standard: 1.2 seconds or less If "N" --> "D" time lag is longer than specified: Secondary pressure (line pressure) is too low. Forward clutch worn Forward clutch piston malfunction Control valve body malfunction Learning incomplete
  4. In the same manner, measure the time lag when shifting from "N" to "R" range. Time lag standard: 1.5 seconds or less If "N" --> "R" time lag is longer than specified: Secondary pressure (line pressure) is too low. Reverse brake worn Reverse brake piston malfunction Control valve body malfunction Learning incomplete
CAUTIONDirectly after the vehicle has been running or the engine has been idling for a long time, the CVTF is hot. Be careful not to burn yourself. Make sure no other person is around the vehicle during secondary pressure (line pressure) test measurement. After performing the secondary pressure (line pressure) test measurement, adjust the CVTF level.

Note. If the pulley and variator chain, clutch or brake show signs of slipping or shift feel is not correct, check the secondary pressure (line pressure). Connect Subaru Select Monitor to vehicle so as to measure the engine speed and actual secondary pressure (secondary pressure (line pressure)). In many cases, slippage or inability to operate the vehicle may be due to insufficient oil pressure for the operation of clutch, brake or control valve.

  1. Lift up the vehicle.
  2. Remove the secondary pressure (line pressure) test plug, and install ST1 and ST2. CAUTION: Removal of the test plug and installation of the ST shall be both performed quickly. NOTE: Use ST2 PRESSURE GAUGE ADAPTER with genuine O-ring (part No. 806916050) attached. ST1 18801AA000 OIL PRESSURE GAUGE ASSY ST2 18681AA010 PRESSURE GAUGE ADAPTER
  3. Lower the vehicle.
  4. Set the gauge so that it can be seen from the driver's seat.
  5. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, check if the throttle valve operates when you depress the accelerator pedal. Refer to «DISPLAY OF ENGINE FREEZE FRAME DATA»(ref-565182-S42652795882013071000000) .
  6. Check the engine oil level. Refer to «ENGINE OIL»(ref-565156-S07435495832013071000000) .
  7. Check the coolant level. Refer to «ENGINE COOLANT»(ref-565166-S16474887242013071000000) .
  8. Adjust the CVTF level. Refer to «ADJUSTMENT»(ref-565171-S15048869762013071000000) .
  9. Increase the CVTF temperature to 60 - 80°C (140 - 176°F) with the engine running and the select lever shifted to "N" or "P" range.
  10. Shift the select lever to "D" range.
  11. Depress the accelerator pedal to the full while fully depressing the foot brake pedal with your left foot.
  12. Immediately after the engine speed becomes steady, record the reading of the secondary pressure (line pressure), engine speed and actual secondary pressure on Subaru Select Monitor. And then release the accelerator pedal. Shift the select lever to "N" range. Let the engine idle for one minute or more to cool it down. NOTE: Do not continue the stall test for 5 seconds or more at a time (from fully closed throttle, fully open throttle to secondary pressure (line pressure) reading). Failure to follow this instruction will cause the engine oil and CVTF to deteriorate and the clutch and brake to be adversely affected. After performing the secondary pressure (line pressure) test, be sure to cool down the engine for at least one minute with the select lever set in "P" or "N" range and with the idle speed at 1, 200 rpm or less. Under each condition, check that the measured pressure matches almost totally with actual secondary pressure. When both measured pressure and actual secondary pressure are out of specification, judge as control valve malfunction. The value at stall is for reference because the pressure changes under different conditions or circumstances. The value at idling is steady because it is not affected by any condition or circumstance. Secondary pressure (line pressure) standard Range Throttle Brake Secondary pressure (line pressure) (MPa (kgf/cm 2 , psi)) Stall D, R Full open ON 4.5 - 6.0 (45.9 - 61.2, 652 - 870) Idling P, N Full closed OFF 0.5 - 1.5 (5.1 - 15.3, 72 - 218)

  3. Check oil strainer for clogging. When oil strainer has no clogging, replace the oil pump.
  1. Check for leakage of CVTF from the connection between converter case and transmission case.
  2. Check there is no damage or cracks on the converter case.
