O-rings, Gaskets, Seals and Transmission Fluid







O-rings, Gaskets, Seals and Transmission Fluid

Always replace the O-rings, gaskets and seals.

After removing the shaft seals, check the sealing surfaces on the housing or shaft for burrs, resulting from removal or damage.

Coat the O-rings with transmission fluid before installing, in order to prevent crushing the O-rings during installation.

Use automatic transmission fluid only. Other types of lubricants can cause faults to occur in the transmission hydraulics.

To install, lightly coat the shaft seals along the outer circumference and on the sealing lip - arrow - with transmission fluid.






The open side on the shaft seals faces the oil.

Check the transmission fluid level. Refer to => [ Transmission Fluid Level, Checking and Filling ] Transmission Fluid Level, Checking and Filling.

Be cautious when dealing with automatic transmission fluid. Dispose of drained transmission fluid properly.
