ROAD TEST [FS5A-EL]


id051721290700

Warning
•  When performing a road test, be aware of other vehicles, people, impediments, etc. to avoid an accident.
Note
•  When the legal speed limit must be exceeded, use a chassis dynamometer instead of performing a road test.

Road Test Preparation

1.  Inspect the engine coolant. (See ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL INSPECTION [MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].)

2.  Inspect the engine oil. (See ENGINE OIL LEVEL INSPECTION [MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].)

3.  Inspect the ATF. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID (ATF) INSPECTION [FS5A-EL].)

4.  Inspect the idle speed. (See ENGINE TUNE-UP [MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].)

5.  Inspect the ignition timing. (See ENGINE TUNE-UP [MZR 2.0, MZR 2.5].)

6.  Verify that no DTCs recorded. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DTC INSPECTION [FS5A-EL].)

D Range Test

1.  Perform “Road Test Preparation”. (See Road Test Preparation.)

2.  Warm-up the transaxle until the ATF temperature reaches at 60—70 °C {140—158 °F}.

3.  Select the selector lever to D range.

4.  Perform the road test at D range.

•  If there is any malfunction, perform the “Symptom Troubleshooting”.
(1)  Accelerate the vehicle with half and WOT, then verify that 1GR—2GR, 2GR—3GR, 3GR—4GR, and 4GR—5GR upshifts can be obtained. The shift points must be as shown in the table below.
(2)  Decelerate the vehicle in 5GR, then verify that 5GR—4GR, 4GR—3GR, 3GR—2GR and 2GR—1GR downshifts can be obtained. The shift points must be as shown in the table below.
(3)  Drive the vehicle in 5GR, 4GR, 3GR, and 2GR and verify that kickdown occurs for 5GR—4GR, 4GR—3GR, 3GR—2GR, 2GR—1GR downshifts, and that the shift points are as shown in the table below.
(4)  Decelerate the vehicle and verify that engine braking effect is felt in 5GR, 4GR, 3GR and 2GR.
(5)  Drive the vehicle and verify that TCC operation is obtained. The operation points must be as shown in the table below.

Direct Mode Test

Note
•  Direct mode inspection is performed representatively between 3rd and 4th gears.

1.  Perform road test preparation. (See Road Test Preparation.)

2.  Shift the selector lever to D range.

3.  Perform the following tests.

•  If there is any malfunction, inspect the steering shift switch. (See STEERING SHIFT SWITCH INSPECTION [FS5A-EL].)
(1)  When the vehicle is driven according to the following table, inspect the point at which the system switches from automatic shift mode to direct mode.

•  While driving under condition indicated on left and at constant speed for several seconds *, verify that system switches to automatic shift mode automatically.

*  :Depending on the driving conditions, the time required to switch to automatic shift mode may vary.


M Range Test

1.  Perform “Road Test Preparation”. (See Road Test Preparation.)

2.  Warm-up the transaxle until the ATF temperature reaches at 60—70 °C {140—158 °F}.

3.  Select the selector lever to M range.

4.  Perform the road test at M range.

•  If there is any malfunction, perform the “Symptom Troubleshooting”.
(1)  Verify that upshifts and downshifts are obtained by manual shifting of the selector lever forward and back.
(2)  Decelerate the vehicle in 5GR, then verify that 5GR—4GR, 4GR—3GR, 3GR—2GR and 2GR—1GR downshifts can be obtained. The shift points must be as shown in the table below.
(3)  Decelerate the vehicle and verify that engine braking effect is felt in all gear position.
(4)  Drive the vehicle and verify that TCC operation is obtained in 4GR and 5GR.

P Position Test

1.  Select the selector lever to P position on a gentle slope.

2.  Release the brake and verify that the vehicle does not roll.

•  If the vehicle rolls, inspect the parking mechanism in the transaxle.
