This Technicians Reference Booklet introduces the first generation of Subaru Four Speed Electronic Automatic Transmissions. It covers the components and their operation, its self-diagnostic system, troubleshooting, transmission removal, inspection, reassembly, and reinstallation procedures. The differences between the front-wheel-drive (FWD) and the four-wheel-drive (4WD) transmissions are also illustrated.

This booklet is designed to support the 4EAT Transmission Core Course and in no way should it be used to replace the service manual. The text and illustrations are derived from classroom instruction and
lab participation.

Ample room has been left throughout the booklet for note taking. It is recommended that after completing the course, this booklet should be filed in your personal Technicians Training Reference Booklets Binder, which is sold through Subaru of America Parts department (MSA5T0100B).
