A/T FLUIDPFP:KLE40
Changing Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)ECS00EPX
1. Drive the vehicle to warm up the ATF to 80° C (176 ° F).
2. Stop the engine.
3. Remove the ATF level gauge bolt.
4. Drain the ATF from the drain plug hole and then install the drain plug with a new gasket. Refill the transmission with new ATF.
Always refill with the same volume as the drained ATF. Use the
ATF level gauge to check the ATF level as shown. Add ATF as
necessary.
To flush out the old ATF from the coolers, pour new ATF into the charging pipe with the engine idling
and at the same time drain the old ATF from the auxiliary transmission oil cooler hose return line.
When the color of the ATF coming out of the auxiliary transmission oil cooler hose return line is about
the same as the color of the new ATF, flushing out the old ATF is complete. The amount of new trans-
mission ATF used for flushing should be 30% to 50% of the specified capacity.
CAUTION:
Use only the specified ATF. Do not mix with other fluids.
Using an ATF other than the specified ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic
transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by
the warranty.
When filling the transmission with ATF, do not spill the ATF on any heat generating parts such
as the exhaust manifold.
Do not reuse the drain plug gasket.
5. Install the ATF level gauge in the ATF charging pipe and tighten the level gauge bolt to specification.
6. Drive the vehicle to warm up the ATF to 80 ° C (176 ° F).
7. Check the ATF level and condition. Refer to AT- 1 2 , "
Checking Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)" . If the
ATF is still dirty, repeat steps 2 through 5.
Checking Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)ECS00EPY
1. Remove the ATF level gauge bolt.
2. Before driving, the ATF level can be checked at ATF tempera- tures of 30 ° to 50 °C (86 ° to 122 °F) using the “COLD” range on
the ATF level gauge as follows:
a. Park the vehicle on a level surface and set the parking brake.
b. Start the engine and move the selector lever through each gear position. Shift the selector lever into the “P” position.
c. Check the ATF level with the engine idling.
d. Remove the ATF level gauge and wipe it clean with a lint-free paper.
CAUTION:
When wiping the ATF from the ATF level gauge, always use
a lint-free paper, not a cloth.Drain plug : Refer to

A/T CONTROL SYSTEM
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Engine Brake ControlECS00CE2
The forward one-way clutch transmits the drive force from the engine to the rear wheels. But the reverse
drive from the rear wheels is not transmitted to the engine because the one-way clutch is idling.
Therefore, the low coast brake solenoid is operated to prevent the forward one-way clutch from idling and
the engine brake is operated in the same manner as conventionally.
The operation of the low coast brake solenoid switches the low coast brake switching valve and controls
the coupling and releasing of the low coast brake.
The low coast brake reducing valve controls the low coast brake coupling force.
Control ValveECS00CE3
FUNCTION OF CONTROL VALVE
SCIA1520E
NameFunction
Torque converter regulator valve In order to prevent the pressure supplied to the torque converter from being excessive,
the line pressure is adjusted to the optimum pressure (torque converter operating pres-
sure).
Pressure regulator valve
Pressure regulator plug
Pressure regulator sleeve Adjusts the oil discharged from the oil pump to the optimum pressure (line pressure) for
the driving state.
Front brake control valve When the front brake is coupled, adjusts the line pressure to the optimum pressure
(front brake pressure) and supplies it to the front brake. (In 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th gears,
adjusts the clutch pressure.)
Accumulator control valve Adjusts the pressure (accumulator control pressure) acting on the accumulator piston
and low coast reducing valve to the pressure appropriate to the driving state.
Pilot valve A Adjusts the line pressure and produces the constant pressure (pilot pressure) required
for line pressure control, shift change control, and lock-up control.
Pilot valve B Adjusts the line pressure and produces the constant pressure (pilot pressure) required
for shift change control.
Low coast brake switching valve During engine braking, supplies the line pressure to the low coast brake reducing valve.
Low coast brake reducing valve When the low coast brake is coupled, adjusts the line pressure to the optimum pressure
(low coast brake pressure) and supplies it to the low coast brake.
N-R accumulator Produces the stabilizing pressure for when N-R is selected.
Direct clutch piston switching valve Operates in 4th gear and switches the direct clutch coupling capacity.
High and low reverse clutch control valve When the high and low reverse clutch is coupled, adjusts the line pressure to the opti-
mum pressure (high and low reverse clutch pressure) and supplies it to the high and low
reverse clutch. (In 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th gears, adjusts the clutch pressure.)

ENGINE ASSEMBLY
2006 QX56
Loosen the bolts diagonally.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the drive plate. Especially
avoid deforming and damaging of the signal plate teeth
(circumference position).
Place the drive plate with the signal plate surface fac-
ing other than downward.
Keep magnetic materials away from the signal plate.
CAUTION:
Use an engine stand that has a load capacity [approximately 240kg (529 lb) or more] large enough
for supporting the engine weight.
If the load capacity of the stand is not adequate, remove the following parts beforehand to
reduce the potential risk of overturning the stand.
–Remove the fuel tube and fuel injector assembly. Refer to EM-31, "Removal and Installation" .
–Remove the intake manifold. Refer to EM-17, "Removal and Installation" .
–Remove the ignition coil. Refer to EM-28, "Removal and Installation" .
–Remove the rocker cover. Refer to EM-35, "Removal and Installation" .
–Other removable brackets.
CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, make sure the engine stand is stable and there is no risk of
overturning.
31. Remove the alternator. Refer to SC-25, "
REMOVAL" .
32. Remove the engine mounting insulator and bracket using power tool.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
When replacing an engine or transmission you must make sure the dowels are installed correctly
during re-assembly.
Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of driv-
etrain components.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Before starting the engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If the levels are
lower than required quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants" .
Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to the fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at the connection points.
Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids includ-
ing engine oil and engine coolant.
Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
After cooling down the engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to
specified level if necessary.
