General Information

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Subaru Outback, 2003 Subaru Legacy, and 2003 Subaru Baja. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If the select lever is shifted while the engine is idling, there will be a certain time elapse or lag before the shock can be felt. This is used for checking the condition of the low clutch, reverse clutch, low & reverse brake and one-way clutch.

NOTE:
  • Perform the test at normal operating fluid temperature 60 to 80°C (140 to 176°F).
  • Be sure to allow a 1 minute interval between tests.
  • Make three measurements and take the average value.
