AL/DIFFERENTIAL - ADJUSTMENTS). Differential
turning torque must be measured with geartrain out
of case.

ADJUSTMENTS

TORQUE
NOTE: Differential turning torque should only be
measured with the geartrain out of the transaxle. If
measurement is taken with transaxle assembled, an
inaccurate measurement will result.
NOTE: All differential cover-to-case bolts and exten-
sion housing-to-case bolts must be installed and
torqued to obtain accurate measurement.(1) If transaxle is assembled, remove geartrain
and leave differential in place. (Refer to 21 - TRANS-
MISSION/TRANSAXLE/MANUAL - DISASSEMBLY)
(2) Install differential cover and torque differential
cover-to-case bolts to 54 N´m (40 ft. lbs.).
(3) Install extension housing and torque extension
housing-to-case bolts to 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(4) Place transaxle on work bench so axle center-
line is parallel to the ground.
(5) Install turning torque tool C-4995 to differen-
tial at side opposite extension housing.
(6) Using in. lb./N´m dial indicator, rotate differen-
tial case multiple times and record measurement
(Fig. 123). Differential turning torque should be
within 2.3-3.4 N´m (20-30 in. lbs.). Refer to shim
chart for proper shim selection. If turning torque
measured is less than 2.3 N´m (20 in. lbs.), install a
thicker shim. If turning torque measured is greater
than 3.4 N´m (30 in. lbs.), install a thinner shim.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - FLUID LEVEL
CHECK
NOTE: For proper fluid level check intervals, (Refer
to LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/MAINTENANCE

The fluid required in this transaxle is Mopart
ATF+4. Use of substitute fluids may result in
improper transaxle operation and/or failure.
(1) Raise vehicle on hoist.
(2) Remove transaxle fill plug (Fig. 126).
(3) Inspect fluid level. Fluid should be within 3/16º
below fill hole. Add MopartATF+4 as neccessary.
(4) Install fill plug, ensuring it is properly seated.
(5) Lower vehicle.

If the tag is not legible or missing, the ªPKº num-
ber, which is stamped into the transaxle case behindthe transfer gear cover, can be referred to for identi-
fication. This number differs slightly in that it con-
tains the entire transaxle part number, rather than
the last three digits.

Transmission output is directed to an integral dif-
ferential by a transfer gear system in the following
input-to-output ratios:
First...............................2.84 : 1

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - 41TE TRANSAXLE
GENERAL DIAGNOSIS
NOTE: Before attempting any repair on a 41TE four-
speed automatic transaxle, check for diagnostic
trouble codes (DTC's) using the DRB scan tool.
Refer to the Transmission Diagnostic Procedures
Manual.
Transaxle malfunctions may be caused by these
general conditions:
²Poor engine performance
²Improper adjustments
²Hydraulic malfunctions
²Mechanical malfunctions
²Electronic malfunctions
Diagnosis of these problems should always begin
by checking the easily accessible variables: fluid level
and condition, gearshift cable adjustment. Then per-
form a road test to determine if the problem has been
corrected or that more diagnosis is necessary. If the
problem persists after the preliminary tests and cor-
rections are completed, hydraulic pressure checks
should be performed.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ROAD TEST
Prior to performing a road test, verify that the
fluid level, fluid condition, and linkage adjustment
have been approved.
During the road test, the transaxle should be oper-
ated in each position to check for slipping and any
variation in shifting.
If the vehicle operates properly at highway speeds,
but has poor acceleration, the converter stator over-
running clutch may be slipping. If acceleration is nor-
mal, but high throttle opening is needed to maintain
highway speeds, the converter stator clutch may
have seized. Both of these stator defects require
