Fluid Transfer Tube: Service and Repair



Removing and installing inner oil tube





Tools

Notes on removal and installation

Removal

Notes Defective toroidal sealing rings at inner oil tube let ATF enter the differential, which becomes overfilled, and oil emerges from the vent of the differential.

In general, a removed oil tube should be replaced.
The oil tube must be inserted only with special tool 3381. Otherwise there is a danger of leakage due to bending of the oil tube.
1. Remove hydraulic control unit.





2. Lever out oil tube with a screwdriver.

Installation

Note Always replace oil tube and toroidal sealing rings.

1. Provide oil tube with new toroidal sealing rings and give rings a thin coating of Vaseline.





2. Insert oil tube into special tool 3381 and push into transmission housing as far as the stop on the special tool. The open side of the special tool should face the outer wall of the transmission.

Note Do not tilt oil tube. Drive in both tube ends equally.
