Kia Rio: Fluid Service Adjustment Procedure
|
A check of ATF level is not normally required during scheduled
services. If an oil leak is found, perform the oil level check procedure
after repairs are completed.
|
|
When checking the oil level, be careful not to enter dust, foreign
matters, etc. from fill hole.
|
|
1. |
Remove the eyebolt (A).
Eyebolt tightening torque:
4.9 ~ 5.9 N.m (0.5 ~ 0.6 kgf.m, 3.6 ~ 4.3 lb-ft)
|
|
Always replace the gasket of the eyebolt use new one whenever
loosening eyebolt.
|
|
|
2. |
Add ATF SP-IV 700cc to the ATF injection hole.
|
|
3. |
Start the engine. (Don’t step on brake and accelerator simultaneously.
|
|
4. |
Confirm that the temperature of the A/T oil temperature sensor
is 50 ~ 60°C(122 ~ 140°F) with the GDS.
|
|
5. |
Shift the select lever slowly from “P” to “D”, then “D” to “P”
and repeat one more at idle.
|
Keep on each speed position more than 2 sec.
|
|
|
6. |
Lift the vehicle, then remove the oil level plug (A) from the
valve body cover.
|
At this time, the vehicle must be at a level state.
|
|
|
7. |
If the oil flows out of the overflow plug in thin steady stream,
the oil level is correct.
Then finish the procedure and tighten the oil plug.
|
Oil level check (excess or shortage) method
|
• |
Excess: Oil flows out in thick stream.
|
|
• |
Shortage: No oil flows out of the overflow plug.
|
|
|
If there is no damage at the automatic transaxle and the
oil cooler, the oil cooler hose, transaxle case, valve body
tightening state are normal, ATF must drip out after performing
above 1 to 7 procedures. After performing above 1 to 7 procedures,
if the oil doesn’t drip out, inspect the automatic transaxle
assembly.
