Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Hydraulic test
- Measure line pressure
Notice:
- Perform the test at the normal operating atf temperature: 50 to 80°c (122 to 176°f).
- The line pressure test should always be performed with at least 2 people. One person should observe the condition of the wheels or wheel chocks while the other is performing the test.
- Be careful to prevent sst's hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
- This test must be performed after checking and adjusting the engine.
- Perform the test with the a/c off.
- When conducting the stall test, do not continue for more than 10 seconds.
- Warm up the atf.
- Remove the test plug on the transaxle case center right side and connect sst.

- Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
- Start the engine and check the idling speed.
- Keep your left foot firmly on the brake pedal and move the shift lever to d.
- Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
- Depress the accelerator pedal as much as possible with your right foot. Quickly read the highest line pressure reading when the engine speed reaches stall speed.
- Perform the measure line pressure test again with the shift lever on r.
