Important: After installing the driveline support, check the air intake duct to throttle body mating surface. If the air duct becomes dislodged from the throttle body a drivability problem may occur.

1. Install the transmission into position and support with a suitable jack.
2. Install the transmission to flywheel housing bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 50 N·m (37 lb ft) in the tightening sequence illustrated. Refer to

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
