Inspection Procedure 7: Shift Shock when Shifting from N to D and Long Delay




COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM


If abnormal shock or delay of two seconds or more occurs when the selector lever is shifted from N to D range while the engine is idling, the cause is probably abnormal underdrive clutch pressure or a malfunction of the underdrive clutch, valve body or accelerator pedal position sensor.

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. M.U.T.-III actuator test


Item 2: Underdrive solenoid valve
OK: Operating sound can be heard.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.
Replace the underdrive solenoid valve.

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III data list


Item 5: Input shaft speed sensor (Refer to data list reference table ).

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 3.
Refer to diagnosis code P1766: Input shaft speed sensor system .

STEP 3. M.U.T.-III data list


Item 13: Underdrive solenoid valve duty ratio (Refer to data list reference table ).

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 4.
Replace the A/T-ECU <4M4> or engine-A/T-ECU <6G7>.

STEP 4. Check when shift shock occurs.


Q. Does the shift shock occur when the vehicle starts moving?

Go to Step 6.
Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Hydraulic pressure test


Measure the hydraulic pressure for underdrive clutch when the selector lever is shifted from N to D range.
OK: Refer to .

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 9.
Go to Step 8.

STEP 6. Check when shift shock occurs.


Q. Does the shift shock always occur?

Go to Step 8.
Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. M.U.T.-III data list


Item 2: Accelerator pedal position sensor (Refer to data list reference table ).

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 8.
Check the accelerator pedal position sensor system (Refer to GROUP 13A - Troubleshooting, Inspection Chart For Diagnosis Code <6G72> or GROUP 13B - Troubleshooting, Inspection Chart For Diagnosis Code <6G75> or GROUP 13D - Troubleshooting, Inspection Chart For Diagnosis Code <4M41>).

STEP 8. Valve body disassembly clean and assembly


(1)Check the bolts for looseness and the O-ring, solenoid valve and valve body for damage.
Replace the valve body assembly if the damages are thought to be irreparable.
(2)Test drive the vehicle.
(3)Verify that the condition described by the customer exists.

Q. Does a malfunction take place again?

Go to Step 9.
The inspection is complete.

STEP 9. Underdrive clutch check


Check the facing for seizure and the piston seal ring for damage and interference with the retainer.

Q. Is the check result normal?

The inspection is complete.
Repair or replace the underdrive clutch.
