Inspection and verification
1. Check the validity of the customer's complaint by testing the transmission in the block with the driving axle in operation.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical damage.

Mechanical factors:
- Feed and return pipelines
- Automatic transmission in block with the driving axle and transmission fluid cooler connections
- Transmission fluid level
3. If an obvious cause for a reported or received complaint is identified, resolve it (if possible) before proceeding with further action.
4. If the cause of the problem is not visually obvious, check the malfunction symptom and refer to the Malfunction Symptom Table.
