Disassembled parts should be washed with cleaning solvent first, then inspected carefully.
1. Bearing
Replace the bearings in the following cases.
• When the bearing balls, outer races and inner races are broken or rusty.
• When the bearing is worn.
• When the bearings fail to turn smoothly or emit noise in rotation after gear oil lubrication.
• The bearing on the rear side of the drive pinion shaft should be checked for smooth rotation before the drive pinion shaft assembly is disassembled. In this case, because a preload is working on the bearing, its rotation feels like it is slightly dragging unlike other bearings.
NOTE:
Ball bearings are used for FWD models, and double-row tapered roller bearings are used for AWD models.

2. Bushing (each gear)
Replace the bushing in following cases.
• When the sliding surface is damaged or abnormally worn.
• When the inner wall is abnormally worn.
3. Gear
Replace gears in the following cases.
• Replace the gear with new part if its tooth surfaces are broken, damaged or excessively worn.
• Correct or replace if the cone that contacts the baulk ring is rough or damaged.
• Repair or replace if the inner surface or end face are damaged.
4. Baulk ring
Replace the baulk ring in following cases:
• When the inner surface and end face are damaged.
• When the ring inner surface is abnormally or partially worn down.
• When the contact surface of the synchronizer ring insert section is cracked or abnormally worn.
• If the gap between the end faces of the ring and the gear splined part is excessively small, press the ring against the cone, and check clearance (A).
Clearance (A):
0.5 mm (0.020 in) or more
• Single cone model
• Double cone model
5. Shifting insert key (1.5 L model)
Replace the insert key if deformed, excessively worn or defective in any way.
6. Ball detent (excluding 1.5 L models)
Replace the ball detent if deformed, excessively worn or defective in any way.
7. Oil seal
Replace the oil seal if the lip is deformed, hardened, worn or defective in any way.
8. O-ring
