WHE
N CHANGING A WHEEL, ENSURE THAT THE VEHICLE CANNOT MOVE. ALWAYS APPLY THE PARK BRAKE AND
SELECT TRANSMISSION 'P' POSITION.
NEVER RUN THE ENGINE WITH ONE WHEEL OFF THE GROUND, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN CHANGING THE WHEEL. THE
VEHICLE COULD MOVE.
TIGHTEN THE WHEEL NUTS TO SPECIFICATION. WHEELS MAY COME LOOSE IF OVER OR UNDER TIGHTENED.
USE WHEELS AND WHEEL NUTS DESI GNED FOR XJ SERIES VEHICLES ONLY. AFTERMARKET WHEELS OR WHEEL
NUTS MAY NOT FIT OR FUNCTION PROPERLY AND COULD CAUSE INJURY OR DAMAGE.
In
spection and Verification
To maximize ti
re performance, inspec
t the tires frequently for signs of:
Unev
en wear.
Incorrect
ti
re pressure.
Wh
ee
l imbalance.
Cuts. Abrasi
ons.
B
u
lges (blister).
Ply s
e
paration.
Embedded objects. Impact damage.
Inspe c
tion should be
more frequent when:
Continuo
us high speed op
eration is required.
Ra
pid or extreme temperatures changes occur.
R
o
ad surfaces are rough.
Roads ar
e littered
with debris.

NO
TE: Tire condition must comply with prevailing local legislation.
New tires must be installed if the wear in dicators are exposed or if there is severe shoulder wear. Shoulder wear is usually
caused by either excessive camber or toe on tires.
T i
re Vibration Diagnosis
A
tir
e vibration diagnostic procedure always
begins with a road test. The road test and the custom er interview (if available)
will provide much of the information need ed to find the source of vibration.
During the road test, drive the vehicle on a road that is smooth and free of undulations. If vibration is apparent, note and
record the following:
The s p
eed at which the vibration occurs.
W
h
at type of vibration occurs in each
speed range - mechanical or audible.
How the vibrati
on is affected
by changes in the following:
- -engine torque
- -vehicle speed
- -engine speed.
Type of v i
bration - sensitivity:
- - torque sensitive,
- - vehicle speed sensitive,
- - or engine speed sensitive.
The
following explanations will help isolate the source of vibration.
Torque Sensitive
This
means that the condition can be impr
oved or made worse by accelerating, dece lerating, coasting, maintaining a steady
vehicle speed, or applying engine torque.
Ve
hicle Speed Sensitive
This means th
at the vibration al
ways occurs at the same vehicle speed and is not affected by engine torque, engine speed
or gear selection.
Engine Speed Sensit
ive
This means th
at the vibration
occurs at varying vehicle spee ds when a different gear is selected. It can sometimes be
isolated by increasing or decreasing engine speed with the tran smission in neutral or by stall testing with the transmission in
gear. If the condition is engine speed sensitive, the cause is probably not related to tires.
If the road test indicates that there is tire wine, but no shake or vibration, the noise originates with the contact between th e
tire and the road surface.
A thumping noise usually means that the tire is flat or has soft spots making a noise as they slap the roadway. Tire whine
can be distinguished from axle no ise, as tire whine remains the same over a range of speeds.
