WHEEL & TIRE SPECIFICATIONS
Tire specifications are imprinted on the tire side wall. The
recommended cold tire inflation pressures are listed on a label
attached to the rear face of the driver's door. These pressures
provide the best combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability
under normal conditions.
CAUTION: DO NOT mix tires of different design such as radial ply
with bias or bias-belted tires. Mixing tire types will
adversely affect road handling and may lead to loss of
vehicle control. When using snow tires, they must be used
in set of four for maneuverability and safety. DO NOT use
tire chains on front wheels.

WHEEL TIGHTENING

Tighten wheel lug nuts to 72-87 ft. lbs. (100-120 N.m).
BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with
computers may lose memory data. When battery power is
restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.
These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See
COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the GENERAL
INFORMATION Section.
Battery is maintenance-free and does not normally require
additional water. However, under severe conditions it is advisable to
check battery fluid periodically. Use only distilled water to fill
battery cell should it become necessary to add water. Charge condition
can be checked by a visual test indicator on top of battery.
CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIR BAG)
NOTE: See the AIR BAGS article in the ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Section.
Modifications or improper maintenance, including incorrect
removal and installation of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS),
can adversely affect system performance. DO NOT cover, obstruct or
change the steering wheel horn pad in any way, as such action could
cause improper function of the system. Use only plain water when
cleaning the horn pad. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the
air bag cover and cause improper deployment of the system.
WARNING: Service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring must
be preformed only by an authorized Suzuki dealer. Please
observe all WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
WARNING: Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position and
the cable is disconnected from the battery.
WARNING: Never attempt to disassemble or repair the passenger air
bag (inflator) module. If any abnormality is found, be sure
to replace it with new one as an assembly.
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and
carefully follow all warnings and service precautions. See
appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article in the
ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT section.
CAUTION: Disconnect negative battery cable before servicing any air
bag system, steering column or passenger side dash
component. After any repair, turn ignition key to the ON
position from passenger's side of vehicle in case of
accidental air bag inflation
AIR CONDITIONING SERVICING
WARNING: Avoid breathing R-134a refrigerant and PAG lubricant vapors,
exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. To remove
R-134a from system use R-134a recycling equipment that meets

2) Disconnect air intake hose and vacuum hoses. Remove air
hose and air outlet housing. Remove heat protectors. Disconnect
exhaust pipe. Remove power steering oil pump and bracket. Remove
engine hanger bracket. Disconnect oil inlet pipe.
3) Disconnect engine coolant hoses and tubes from
turbocharger. Remove exhaust manifold nuts and bolts. Remove exhaust
manifold and gaskets. Disconnect oil pressure and return pipes. Remove
turbocharger and exhaust manifold assembly. Separate turbocharger from
exhaust manifold.
Removal (3000GT - Front)
1) Disconnect negative battery cable. Drain engine oil and
coolant. Remove radiator. Disconnect exhaust pipe. Remove air intake
hose, air hoses and air pipe. Remove generator and belt. Remove oil
dipstick guide.
2) Remove heat protector. Disconnect front heated oxygen
sensor connector. Remove oil return pipe. Remove turbocharger support
bracket, and remove turbocharger from exhaust manifold.
Removal (3000GT - Rear)
1) Disconnect battery cables, and remove battery. Drain
engine oil and cooling system. Remove accelerator cable. Remove air
hose, air pipe and heat protectors. Disconnect clutch booster vacuum
hose. Remove air intake hoses and EGR pipe. Disconnect heated oxygen
sensor connectors.
2) Remove oil pipe and EGR valve. Disconnect exhaust fitting,
and remove rear heat protector. Remove oil return pipe. Remove
turbocharger assembly.
Inspection (All Models)
Check turbine and compressor wheels for cracking and other
damage. Ensure turbine and compressor wheels turn smoothly. Check for
oil leakage from turbocharger assembly. Check for proper wastegate
valve operation. See I - SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article.
CAUTION: Apply light coat of oil to inner surface of flared area on
water pipe (flare nut fitting) before connecting to engine.
Installation (All Models)
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Before oil pipe
flare nut (above turbocharger) is installed, pour clean engine oil
into turbocharger oil pipe installation hole. Ensure oil and air hoses
are properly installed and securely clamped.
2) Use NEW gaskets. Adjust accelerator cable (if necessary).\
Refill engine oil and coolant. Check for oil and coolant leaks.
Tighten all bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
