Oil Pan: Components
CAUTION:
- Check for foreign materials in the oil pan to help determine the cause of any malfunction. If the CVT fluid is very dark, smells burned, or contains foreign particles, frictional material (clutches) may need replacement. A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates varnish build up. Varnish can cause valves to stick and can inhibit pump pressure.
- Completely remove all moisture, oil, old gasket and any foreign material from the gasket mounting surface of the CVT case and oil pan.
- Do not reuse oil pan gasket and oil pan bolts.
- After installation is complete, fill CVT will recommended CVT fluid and check for CVT fluid leakage and CVT fluid level. Refer to "CHECKING CVT FLUID ".
