Drivetrain and Transmission Architecture

This factory manual details the construction and disassembly for the manual and automatic transmission systems found in the Daihatsu Charade. The content guides the reader through the identification and service of the clutch pedal assembly, clutch release cables, and internal transmission components. Extensive sections document the maintenance of the input and output shafts, 5th gear assemblies, and differential cases. Experts will appreciate the depth provided for synchronizer ring inspection, gear end-play measurements, and the proper application of bonding agents during case reassembly.

Specification Highlights

This technical guide provides extensive data for inspection and assembly operations. The transmission oil capacity for the 4-speed unit is listed as 1.9–2.0 liters, while the 5-speed unit requires 2.1–2.2 liters of SAE 80 GL-3 oil. Differential ring gear tightening torque is specified at 8.0–9.0 kg-m (58–65 ft-lb) for high-performance variants. Clutch pedal free travel is strictly documented at 15–30 mm to ensure proper disengagement. The automatic transmission stall speed is recorded at 2100–2300 rpm under standard operating temperatures of 70–80°C. All service data shown here is for reference only — qualified technicians and the original OEM documentation remain the authoritative source for any hands-on work. Learn how factory workshop documentation is structured to better navigate the provided schematic data.
