Steering
Check
1.Check/tighten steering unit and steering rod
ball joint fixings.
2.Check condition of ball joints and dust covers.
3.Check steering rack bellows for any signs of
leakage.
Road Test
There are two purposes for conducting a road test.
Firstly, to ensure the work completed within the
dealership meets the standards required as laid
down by dealership processes. Secondly, for a
skilled technician to assess the general condition of
the vehicle and report any conditions that the
customer should be made aware of.
CAUTION: Two wheel dynamometer tests must
not be carried out. Four wheel dynamometer
tests must be restricted to 3 mph (5 kph).
Engine Start
1.Check for correct operation of starter switch.
Ensure the engine starts in a correct manner.
Leave the engine running.
Starter Inhibitor Switch – (Automatic only)
1.Select 'D' gear lever position.
2.Check that engine will not start.
3.Select 'R' gear lever position and repeat start
check.
4.Check that engine will start in 'P' and 'N'
positions.
Selector Cable – (Automatic only)
1.Check for correct setting of gear selector cable.
Engine Performance and Throttle Operation
1.Start engine and check that it starts easily.
2.Check that 'oil pressure' and 'no charge'
warning lamps extinguish.
3.Check that throttle pedal movement is free and
unrestricted.
4.Check that engine is responsive to throttle
movement.
Clutch and Gear Selection –
(Manual only, normal driving conditions)
1.Check that clutch engages smoothly without
judder, slipping or noise.
2.Check for abnormal transmission noise.
3.Check for smooth quiet gear changes and that
gear selected engages easily.

MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE 10-29
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.
