Transfer: Overview Suzuki SX4 I рестайлинг

Transfer Case 5 illustrations ~624 words

The transfer is mounted on transaxle case by fastening bolt with reduction drive gear in transfer and differential case in transaxle coupled by involute spline. Driving force from transaxle is transmitted to propeller shaft through reduction drive gear, reduction driven gear and bevel gear of transfer. As bevel gears, which change the direction of driving torque axis to the direction of the angle with 90 degrees, hypoid gears are provided. Hypoid gears have an advantage of preventing gear noise, at the same time, they require accurate adjustment of tooth contact and backlash.

Scheme 2: Transfer Oil Level Check
Scheme 2: Transfer Oil Level Check
  1. Lift up vehicle and check oil leakage. Repair leaky point, if any.
  2. Remove exhaust No. 2 pipe, see «EXHAUST PIPE AND MUFFLER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION»(ref-514571-S36168360652012112100000) .
  3. Remove transfer oil level/filler plug (1) and check oil for contamination and level. Oil should flow out of plug hole (2) or oil level should reach plug hole (2). If oil is excessive dirty or insufficient, replace oil or pour specified oil up to plug hole.
  4. Apply sealant to thread of level/filler plug, and then tighten it to specified torque. "A": Sealant 99000-31260 (SUZUKI Bond No. 1217G) Tightening torque Transfer oil level/filler plug (a): 23 N.m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lbf-ft)
  5. Install exhaust No. 2 pipe, see «EXHAUST PIPE AND MUFFLER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION»(ref-514571-S36168360652012112100000) .
  6. Check exhaust system for exhaust gas leakage.
  7. Check transfer for oil leakage.

Scheme 3: Transfer Oil Change
Scheme 3: Transfer Oil Change
  1. Before changing or inspecting oil, be sure to stop engine and lift vehicle horizontally.
  2. Check leakage. If leakage exists, correct it. NOTE: Whenever vehicle is hoisted for any other service work than oil change, also be sure to check for oil leakage.
  3. Remove exhaust No. 2 pipe, see «EXHAUST PIPE AND MUFFLER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION»(ref-514571-S36168360652012112100000) .
  4. Remove transfer oil level/filler plug (2).
  5. Remove transfer oil drain plug (1), and drain oil.
  6. Apply sealant to thread of transfer oil drain plug (1), and tighten it to specified torque. "A": Sealant 99000-31260 (SUZUKI Bond No. 1217G) Tightening torque Transfer oil drain plug (a): 23 N.m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lbf-ft)
  7. Pour new specified oil up to oil level/filler plug hole (3). NOTE: It is highly recommended to use API GL-5 80W-90 gear oil. Transfer oil specification : API GL-5 (For SAE classification, refer to viscosity chart [A] in figure.) Transfer oil capacity Reference: 0.6 liters (1.2/1.0 US/lmp. pt)
  8. Apply sealant to thread of transfer oil level/filler plug, and then tighten it to specified torque. "A": Sealant 99000-31260 (SUZUKI Bond No. 1217G) Tightening torque Transfer oil level/filler plug (b): 23 N.m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lbf-ft)
  9. Install exhaust No. 2 pipe, see «EXHAUST PIPE AND MUFFLER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION»(ref-514571-S36168360652012112100000) .
  10. Check exhaust system for exhaust gas leakage.
  11. Check transfer for oil leakage.
