General Procedures: Check — 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged Service Manual

General Procedures: Check

WARNING:
  • Observe due care when draining, as the fluid can be very hot.
  • Observe due care when working near a hot exhaust system.
    • The following steps must be observed before starting the transmission fluid level check.
    • The vehicle must be on a horizontal ramp.
    • Make sure that the electric park brake (EPB) is applied.
    • Make sure the transmission control switch (TCS) is in the Park (P) position.
  2. CAUTION: Using Land Rover approved diagnostic equipment, make sure the transmission temperature is between is 30°C (85°F) and 50°C (122°F) before starting the fluid level check.
    • Connect Land Rover approved diagnostic equipment to the vehicle.
    • Start the engine and allow to idle.
    • Switch off the air conditioning (A/C) system and other electrical components.
    • Make sure that the transmission is not in the default mode, if this is the case, stop and correct the cause first and then restart the fluid level check.
  4. CAUTION: Make sure the hydraulic control system is filled with oil.
    • Apply and hold the brake pedal.
    • Select reverse gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select drive, then manual 1st gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select 2nd gear and wait for 10 seconds.
    • Select Park (P) on the TCS.
  5. NOTE: Make sure the torque converter is completely filled with oil.
    • Raise the engine speed to 2000 rpm and hold for 30 seconds. Then return to idle speed.
  6. NOTE: After completing the preparation, proceed to the actual transmission fluid level check.
    • If the transmission oil temperature is lower than 30°C (86°F). Allow the transmission to warm up above 30°C (86°F) with the engine idling in the P position, then proceed with the transmission fluid level check.
    • If the transmission oil temperature is above 50°C (122°F), switch off the engine and allow the transmission to cool down, then restart the fluid level check.
  7. CAUTION: Only continue with the fluid level check if the transmission temperature is between 30°C (86°F) 50°C (122°F).
    • Start the engine, if not already idling.
    • Maintain the engine idle speed.
  8. WARNING: Make sure to support the vehicle with axle stands.

    Raise and support the vehicle.

    • Remove the oil filler plug, do not discard.
    • If fluid flows out, proceed to step  14.
    • If fluid does not flow out, proceed to step 13
  13. CAUTION: Make sure the correct specification and quantity of oil is used.
    NOTE: Use transmission fluid meeting Land Rover specification.

    • Allow the transmission fluid to drain from the oil filler hole until the flow almost stops to a trickle.
  15. NOTE: Install the original oil filler plug.
    G11599681
    • Using the special tool, install the original oil filler plug.
    • Special Tool(s): 307-452 
  16. CAUTION: Make sure the transmission fluid fill plug is tightened to the correct specification. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the transmission.
    G11601796
    • To make sure the transmission fill plug is torqued to the correct specification. Using the special tool and torque wrench the following calculation steps must be followed.
    • Step 1. Multiply 35 Nm by the effective length of the torque wrench (1).
    • Step 2. Add the effective length of the special tool (2) to the effective length of the torque wrench (1).
    • Step 3. Divide the total of step 1 by the total of step 2.
    • Step 4. Set the torque wrench to the figure arrived at in step 3.
    • Tighten the transmission fluid fill plug to the torque given by the calculation.
    • Remove the special tool.
    • Special Tool(s): 307-452 
  18. CAUTION: Clean the area around the filler plug, wipe away any excess fluid.

    Remove the container.
