17. REMOVE CVT OIL PUMP TYPE T OIL SEAL

NOTICE:
* Do not remove the front oil pump assembly from the CVT main body, as there is the possibility of the entry of dust and foreign matter.
* Clean the work area, the tools to be used, and other equipment, etc. thoroughly before the operation, as there is the possibility that a CVT malfunction, which could prevent the vehicle from running, could occur if dust or fine foreign matter enters the CVT.
* Do not use cotton work gloves, cloths, or paper towels, etc. that may produce lint, etc.
* Perform the operation as quickly as possible, as dust and foreign matter could enter the CVT while the torque converter is not attached to it.
