ADJUSTMENT

CAUTIONCVTF level changes along with CVTF temperature. When inspecting CVTF level, observe the specified CVTF temperature. Always use specified CVTF. Using other fluid will cause malfunction.

  1. Idle the engine to raise CVTF temperature to 35 - 45°C (95 - 113°F) on Subaru Select Monitor.
  2. Operate the select lever in P --> R --> N --> D and D --> N --> R --> P to circulate CVTF with the engine idling.
  3. With the engine running, lift up the vehicle and remove the filler plug. CAUTION: Pay special attention to the following operations as the engine is at idle. NOTE: CVTF is at the specified level when it is up to the filler plug hole lower section.
  4. When there is no CVTF leakage from the transmission, add the specified fluid up to the filler plug hole lower section. Specified fluid: < Refer to «HYDRAULIC CONTROL AND LUBRICATION»(ref-560362-S00502436672013061300000) , SPECIFICATION, General Description. > CAUTION: Note that when CVTF is added up to the lower section of filler plug while the transmission is in cold condition, overfilling of CVTF occurs, causing the oil to spill out.
  5. Install the filler plug. NOTE: Use a new gasket. Tightening torque: 50 N.m (5.1 kgf-m, 36.9 ft-lb)

Note. Immediately after removing the overflow drain plug, remaining gear oil (approx. 8 cc) may come out of the overflow pipe. This is not included in the specified amount. When removing the overflow drain plug, make sure the gear oil flows out of the overflow drain plug hole by filling with gear oil.

  1. Lift up the vehicle.
  2. Remove the filler plug.
  3. Remove the overflow drain plug.
  4. Fill in the differential gear oil through the filler plug hole up to where the oil flows out of the overflow drain plug. Recommended gear oil: < Refer to «RECOMMENDED GEAR OIL»(ref-560362-S37396248352013061300000) , SPECIFICATION, General Description. >
  5. When the flow of the differential gear oil turns into a narrow stream, install the overflow drain plug. NOTE: Use a new gasket. Tightening torque: 50 N.m (5.1 kgf-m, 36.9 ft-lb)
  6. Install the filler plug. NOTE: Use a new gasket. Tightening torque: 50 N.m (5.1 kgf-m, 36.9 ft-lb)

Note. When replacing the extension case, select the transfer drive gear shim and transfer driven gear shim. < Refer to ADJUSTMENT , Reduction Drive Gear. > < Refer to ADJUSTMENT , Transfer Clutch. >
