INTAKE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM
1. Throttle Body

The adoption of the ETCS-i has realized excellent throttle control.

The ISC system and cruise control system are controlled comprehensively by the ETCS-i.

The ETCS-i, which drives the throttle valve through a DC motor that is controlled by the ECM, thus doing
away with a throttle link to connect the accelerator pedal to the throttle valve, has been adopted.

The throttle control motor is provided with a return spring that closes the throttle valve.

An opener spring is provided on the throttle position sensor side. This spring opens the throttle valve slight-
ly when the engine is stopped to prevent the throttle valve from sticking and to improve the engine's restart-
ability.

A warm coolant passage is provided below the throttle body to prevent the throttle valve from freezing
during cold temperatures.
2. Intake Manifold

Because it is not necessary to improve the in-
take air efficiency through inertial intake due to
the adoption of the Atkinson cycle, the length
of the intake pipe of the intake manifold has
been shortened, and furthermore, the intake
pipes for cylinders #1 and #2, as well as for #3
and #4, have been integrated midstream to
achieve a large-scale weight reduction.
In addition, the throttle body has been oriented
downflow in the center of the surge tank to
achieve a uniform intake air distribution.

A vacuum port has been provided for the Toyo-
ta HC adsorber and catalyst system.

6. Reduction Unit
The reduction unit consists of the silent chain, counter gears and final gears.
A silent chain with a small pitch width has been adopted to ensure quiet operation, and the overall length has
been reduced in contrast to the gear-driven mechanism.
The counter gears and final gears teeth have been processed through high-precision housing and their tooth
flanks have been optimized to ensure extremely quiet operation.
The final gears have been optimally allocated to reduce the distance between the engine's center shaft and
the differential shaft, thus resulting in a transmission with a compact package.

DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
For the differential unit, a 2-pinion type that is similar to the differential unit of the conventional transaxle
has been adopted.

Trailing Arm and Axle Beam

Trailing arms that are lightweight, highly rigid, hollow inside, and a gently curved axle beam with a rear-
open U-shaped cross section have been adopted.

A toe control links integrated axle beam has been adopted. The toe control link consists of the No.1, No.2,
and No.3 trailing arm bushings, and it rotates within the horizontal plane of the vehicle, around the No.3
bushing that serves as the axial center.

The rolling regidity has been optimized through the adoption of the stabilizer bar.
Toe-Correct Function
The longitudinal and lateral forces that are created in the vehicle during cornering causes the toe control
links in the trailing arms to become deformed.
On a right turn, the right trailing arm moves forward and the left trailing arm moves rearward, creating a
tendency for the left wheel to toe out.
In this situation, the toe control links that are installed in the trailing arms are designed to utilize the lateral
force, which is applied to the toe control links during cornering, to correct the left trailing arm towards the
toe-in direction.
As a result, excellent stability and controllability are realized.

5) Detecting the Vehicle Position
The navigation ECU calculates the position based on the principle of a 3-point measurement.
The GPS satellites are equipped with high-precision clocks. Thus, the satellites are able to transmit con-
tinuous orbit signals and radiowave transmission time signals.
The navigation ECU also contains a clock, which can understand the radiowave time signals that are re-
ceived from the satellites.
As a result, the length of time that is taken by the radiowaves to arrive from the satellites to the antenna
can be determined. Thus, the lengths of time that elapse for the radiowaves of the 4 satellites to reach
the antenna are measured. Each of these lengths of time are multiplied by the luminous flux (the rate of
transmission of luminous energy: approximately 300,000 km per second), the results of which are the
distances from the satellites to the antenna. Because the positions of the GPS satellites are known by their
signals, the receiving point (vehicle position) can be rendered as the point in which the 4 spheres (of
which the centers are the respective satellites) converge.
However, due to the differences that exist between the clocks of the satellite and the ECU, the 4 spheres
do not converge at a single point. Therefore, the ECU uses another satellite to calculate the point at which
the 4 spheres converge at a single point and corrects its internal clock. As a result, the ECU determines
the vehicle position and adjusts its internal clock to the clocks of the satellites.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT BRAKE LINE PIPES AND HOSES
HINT:
Check in a well lighted area. Check the entire circumference
and length of the brake hoses using a mirror as required. Turn
the front wheels fully right or left before checking the front brake.
(a) Check all brake lines and hoses for:

Damage

Wear

Deformation

Cracks

Corrosion

Leaks

Bends

Twists
(b) Check all clamps for tightness and connections for leak-
age.
(c) Check that the hoses and lines are clear of sharp edges,
moving parts and the exhaust system.
(d) Check that the lines installed in grommets pass through
the center of the grommets.
2. INSPECT FRONT BRAKE PADS AND DISCS
(See page BR±29 )
HINT:
If a squealing or scraping noise comes from the brake during,
check the pad wear indicator to see if it is contacting the disc
rotor. If so, the disc pad should be replaced.
3. INSPECT BRAKE LININGS AND DRUMS
(See page BR±35)
