"D" Position Test

  1. Engine and transmission must be at normal operating temperature. Shift the transmission into "D" position with the OD switch in the ON position. Depress accelerator pedal to full throttle. Make sure all upshifts and downshifts occur at specified points. Refer to the SHIFT SPEED SPECIFICATIONS  table.
  2. Make sure lock-up occurs at appropriate speeds. Refer to the LOCK-UP SPEED SPECIFICATIONS  table. Lightly depress accelerator pedal. If excessive increase in engine RPM exists, lock-up will not occur.
  3. Check for shock and slippage at all upshifts. Check for abnormal noise and vibration. While driving in "D", 2nd and "L" gear, ensure speeds at 2-1, 3-2 and OD-3 kickdown are within specification. Check for shock and slippage at kickdown.
