SPECIFICATIONS

Weight: 70 kg
Espace vehicles fitted with the DP0 automatic
transmission are equipped with systems called:
"Shift Lock" and "Lock Up".
The purpose of the "Shift Lock" is to prevent movement of the selector lever without simultaneous
pressing of the brake pedal. For troubleshooting
operations when the battery is faulty, refer to the
vehicle handbook.
The purpose of the "Lock Up" or converter coupling is to connect the automatic transmission directly to the engine. This function is carried out by
a "mini clutch" placed in the converter. The "Lock
Up" is controlled by the DP0 computer.

TOWING

It is preferable, in all cases, to have the vehicle towed on a flat-bed trailer or with the front wheels
lifted. However, if this is not possible, towing may
be carried out in exceptional circumstances at a
speed below 30 mph (50 km/h) and over a distance limited to 30 miles (50 km) maximum (lever
in N).
TOWED LOAD

It is compulsory that the towed load is less than


1,300 kg with a trailer with brakes (for driver only).

Parts which must always be changed


Parts which must be changed if they have been
removed:
- prevailing torque nuts,
- seals,
- rubber seals.

Oil
The DP0 automatic transmission is lubricated for life, it does not require any maintenance.
All that is required is for the level to be topped up in the event a slight leak.

Specified oil:
ELF RENAULTMATIC D3 SYN (to be ordered from ELF)

Standard DEXRON III.

DRAINING

It is preferable to drain the automatic transmission with the oil warm (60C maximum), to eliminate as many impurities as possible.

Special features:

Draining is by removing plug (A).

- draining (by removing the overflow (A)),

The plug has two functions:


- topping up (by removing the plug (B)).

7 - Close the top-up plug.


PROCEDURE FOR CHECKING THE LEVEL OTHER
THAN DURING FILLING OPERATIONS

Use a funnel with 15/100 filter to prevent the introduction of impurities.

It is ESSENTIAL to check the level in accordance


with the procedure described below;

FILLING PROCEDURE

1 - Place the vehicle on level ground.

1 - Place the vehicle on level ground.

2 - Fill the automatic transmission with 0.5 litres


of new oil.

2 - Fill the automatic transmission with 3.5 litres


of new oil.

3 - Run the engine at idle. Carry out operations


4, 5 and 6 described above.

3 - Run the engine at idle.


4 - Connect the XR25, enter:

1 4 then #

If the oil does not flow or if the quantity which


can be added is less than 0.1 litres. stop the engine, add 0.5 litres, allow the transmission to cool
to 50C then repeat operations 3-4-5-6.

0 4

5 - When a temperature of 60C 1C is reached, open the top-up plug.

IMPORTANT: In the case of an oil change, the


electronic oil age counter (inside the computer)
must be reset to zero. Enter the date of draining
using command G74*.

6 - Position a receptacle to recover at least 0.1 litres of excess oil and wait until the oil flows
drop by drop.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Converter setting point check
Place the vehicle on a two post lift.
Lift the vehicle until the wheels are a few centimetres off the ground.
Connect the XR25.
Place the ISO selector on S8.
Enter the DP0 transmission code
D

then

to display the oil temperature.


The check must be carried out at an oil temperature of between 60C and 80C.
Start the engine, place the lever at D.
Enter the code :
#

to display the engine speed.


Accelerate fully keeping the brakes applied. The
front wheels must not rotate.
ATTENTION: Full-load must not be maintained for
more than 5 seconds. After this, there is a significant risk of destruction of the converter or the
automatic transmission.
IMPORTANT:
Once the measurement has been taken, release
the accelerator and keep the brakes applied until
the engine speed has stabilised at idle (there is a
risk of damage to the automatic transmission if
this condition is not observed).

The engine speed should stabilise at:


2600 150 rpm.
If the setting point is outside the tolerance the
converter must be changed.

COMMENT: If the setting point is too low this


may be due to a lack of engine power.

the solenoid valve connectors.
Refit the hydraulic distributor mounting bolts as
indicated below:
Fit:
- the distributor prealigning it using bolts
(4) and (5),
- the other bolts.
Tighten the bolts to a torque of 0.75 daN.m in
the order 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7.

Remove the tool, refit bolt (C) and tighten it to
the specified torque.

Remove bolt ( C ).

Apply command G80** using the XR25 if the hydraulic distributor is changed to reset the autoadaptive patterns to zero and command G74* to
reset the oil age counter to zero (enter the date of
draining day/month/year).
