- Press torque converter hub through oil seal as far as first stop.
- Lightly press torque converter inwards and turn until slots on torque converter hub engage in drive lugs on ATF pump gear and torque converter slides in a noticeable distance.





When torque converter is installed correctly, distance between lower contact surface of threaded holes at torque converter and contact surface of converter housing on Automatic Transmission 01V All Wheel Drive (AWD) is approximately 23 mm.

If the torque converter is not inserted correctly, this distance will be approximately 11 mm.

CAUTION: If the torque converter is not properly installed, the drive lugs on the torque converter and the ATF pump will be severely damaged when the transmission is attached to the engine.

Pay particular attention to the following point when installing transmission afterward:

Keep checking whether the torque converter behind the drive plate can be turned when tightening of the bolts at engine transmission flange.

If the torque converter cannot be turned, it must be assumed that it has not been inserted properly and that the coupling plate of the torque converter or the ATF pump will be destroyed during final tightening of the bolts.
