NEW FEATURES Ð BODY 6
BODY
DESCRIPTION
To install the fuel tank in the front area of the luggage compartment, the upper back panel has been
cut.
To prevent reducing the rigidity of the body due to the upper back panel that has been cut out, as well
as for installing the fuel tank, rear seat back, and package tray trim, a performance rod is used for joining
both rear suspension strut towers.
The luggage door support has been changed from the torsion bar to the damper stay type.
To prevent reducing the capacity of the luggage compartment due to the installation of the fuel tank
in the luggage compartment, the shape of the rear floor pan has been changed.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE LOGS20
The following descriptions are provided to give you a better
understanding of the maintenance items that should be per-
formed on your vehicle. The Scheduled Maintenance Log
indicates at which mileage/time intervals each item should be
performed. Please note that many maintenance items should be
performed only by a qualified technician.
For further information on maintenance items you can per-
form yourself, see the “General Maintenance and Care” and
“Do- It-Yourself Maintenance” sections of your
Owner’s Manual.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
or Manual Transmission Oil
Inspect each component for signs of leakage. If you discover any
leakage, have it repaired by a qualified technician immediately.
Ball Joints and Dust Covers
Check the suspension and steering linkage ball joints for loose-
ness and damage. Check all dust covers for deterioration and
damage. A qualified technician should perform these inspections.
Brake Lines and Hoses
Visually inspect for proper installation. Check for chafing,
cracks, deterioration and evidence of leaking. Replace any deteri-
orated or damaged parts immediately. A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Explanation of Maintenance Items

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE LOGS22Engine Valves
Inspect for excessive lifter noise and engine vibration and adjust if
necessary. A qualified technician should perform this operation.
Exhaust Pipes and Mountings
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for
cracks, deterioration and damage. Start the engine and listen
carefully for any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections or
replace parts as necessary.

Re- tighten the seat mounting bolts and front/rear suspension
member retaining bolts to specified torque.
Propeller Shaft
Lubricate the propeller shaft spiders and slide yokes with
lithium- base chassis grease and the double cardan joint with
molybdenum- disulfide lithium- base chassis grease, and re-
torque the flange bolts. Only a qualified technician should
re- torque the flange bolts.
