MAINTENANCE
10-26 MAINTENANCE
KV6 – Petrol engines
Check
1.Check security of all fuel hoses, paying
particular attention to those running under the
vehicle. Check all hoses and pipes are correctly
routed and secured. Check for signs of leakage
or damage.
Brake Hoses and Pipes
Check
1.Visually check condition of all brake hoses.
Look for any sign of damage or chafing. Check
for any signs of fluid leakage.
2.Check brake pipes for signs of leakage or
corrosion. Pay particular attention to pipe
unions and joints. Ensure all pipes and hoses
are correctly routed and secured.
Check Exhaust System
Check
1.Visually check condition of exhaust system for
signs of damage. Extra care should be taken to
ensure the catalyst is in good condition and
shows no signs of damage. Check condition of
exhaust heat shields.
2.Check exhaust system is firmly secured and
check condition of exhaust mounting rubbers,
clamps and brackets.

Gear Change and Parking Pawl Engagement –
(Automatic only, normal driving conditions)
1.Select 'R' and check for smooth take up.
2.Select 'D' and check for smooth up-changes of
ratio from rest.
3.Slow down vehicle and check for smooth down-
changes of ratio.
4.Stop vehicle on a slope.
5.Select 'P' and release handbrake.
6.Check that vehicle does not move and that
selector does not slip out of 'P'.
7.Carry out a similar check with vehicle facing in
the opposite direction.
Steering
1.With vehicle stationary, turn steering from lock
to lock. Check for smooth operation and ensure
there is no undue noise from the power steering
pump or drive belt.
Suspension
1.Check for noise, irregularity in ride (e.g.
dampers) and wheel imbalance.
Foot brake
1.Check for pedal effort, travel, braking
efficiency, pulling and binding.
Handbrake
1.Apply handbrake firmly, check travel and
ratchet hold and release.
Instruments
1.Check for correct operation of all instruments
and warning devices where practical.
Body
1.Check for abnormal body noise.
Seat Belts
1.Check for operation of inertia reels.Road Test
1.Drive vehicle on a short road test. Check all
vehicle systems for correct operation. Pay
particular attention to:
lEngine noise
lGearbox noise
lSuspension noise
lBody noise
lBraking system operation
lGear selection
lEngine performance
2.Where possible, check for correct operation of
Hill Descent Control (HDC) system. This should
not be carried out if excessive journey time is
required.
3.After road test, carry out a final inspection of the
vehicle on vehicle ramps.
4.Check all underbonnet fluid levels and top-up if
necessary.
