The term ‘‘intermittent failure'' means a system may have had a failure, but it checks OK now. If the i-SHIFT indicator does not come on, check for poor connections or loose terminals at all connectors related to the circuit that you are troubleshooting. If the indicator comes ON, but then went out, the original problem may have been intermittent.

When the below mentioned conditions occur and the clutch slips when departing, occasionally the engine speed will rise even though there is no trouble.

NOTE: Even for a vehicle in which a symptom occurred, a hydraulic refill is performed several seconds after the vehicle starts to move, resulting in the immediate return of normal vehicle operation.

NOTE: The clutch is disengaged to protect the clutch plate from thermal deformation during continual creeping operation.
