Road/roller test
WARNING: Roller test must be restricted to 3
mph (5 km/h). If 2 wheel rolling road is to be used,
disconnect propeller shaft from the transfer box
output shaft driving the axle which is NOT on the
rolling road.Testing
1. 2 wheel rolling road: Engage differential lock
using a 10 mm open ended spanner on flats
machined on differential lock selector
shaft.Switch on ignition and check that the
differential lock, electronic brake
distribution and hill descent warning lamps
are illuminated.
2.Check for correct operation of starter switch,
ensure engine starts correctly; leave the engine
running.
3.Check for correct operation of starter switch,
ensure engine starts correctly; leave the engine
running.
4.With vehicle stationary, turn steering from lock
to lock. Check for smooth operation and ensure
there is no undue noise from power steering
pump or drive belt.
5.Depress clutch and select all gears in turn,
check for smooth, notch free engagement.
6. Check all vehicle systems for correct
operation.
7.Check for unusual engine, gearbox and
suspension noises.
8.Check braking system operation.
9.Check for smooth gear engagement.
10.Check engine performance.
11.Check operation of all instruments and warning
devices where practicable.

MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES 10-29
12.Where possible, check for correct operation of
hill descent control (HDC) mechanism. This
should not be carried out if excessive journey
time is required.
13.After road/roller test, carry out a final inspection
of vehicle, with vehicle on a ramp.
14.Check all fluid levels and top-up if necessary.
15. 2 wheel rolling road: Ensure differential lock is
disengaged and propeller shaft is connected on
completion of test. Switch on ignition and
check that differential lock, electronic brake
distribution and hill descent warning lamps
are extinguished.

ENGINE - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 12-1-19
Oil Pressure switch
The oil pressure switch is located in a port on the outlet side of the oil cooler housing. It detects when a safe operating
pressure has been reached during engine starting and initiates the illumination of a warning light in the instrument
pack if the pressure drops below a given value.
Crankshaft, sump and oil pump components
The crankshaft, sump and oil pump components are described below:
Sump
The sump is a wet-type, of aluminium construction and is sealed to the engine block by means of a rubber gasket and
twenty fixing bolts. The four bolts at the gearbox end of the sump are longer than the other sixteen bolts.
The sump gasket incorporates compression limiters (integrated metal sleeves) at the bolt holes, which are included
to prevent distortion of the gasket when the sump to cylinder block bolts are being tightened.
The oil drain plug is fitted at the bottom of the oil sump reservoir. An oil return drain pipe is also attached to the oil
sump which returns oil from the centrifugal filter.
Stiffener Plate
The stiffener plate assembly provides lower engine block rigidity and utilises dowels to align it to the bottom of the
cylinder block. A rotary oil pump is integral with the stiffener plate and an oil pick-up and strainer assembly is fitted
to the underside of the stiffener plate. The stiffener and oil pump assembly is secured to the cylinder block by 22 bolts.

ENGINE - TD5
12-1-32 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
When the engine temperature is below 74° C, the thermostat in the full-flow filter housing is closed and a proportion
of the oil flow to the main oil gallery is diverted to the oil cooler to supply an oil feed to the turbocharger bearings. Oil
passes through the oil cooler to the front gallery in the oil cooler housing where there is a tapping to connect the feed
pipe to the turbocharger. Oil used by the turbocharger bearings is returned to the sump through an oil drain pipe which
connects to a port in the LH side of the cylinder block.
The remainder of the oil flow leaving the full-flow filter outlet is passed into the cylinder block via a port at the rear of
oil cooler rear gallery.
When the oil temperature rises above 74
° C the thermostat in the full-flow filter adaptor housing begins to open to
allow a proportion of the oil from the full-flow filter to pass through the oil cooler before it reaches the main oil gallery
in the cylinder block. In this instance, oil supply to the turbocharger bearings is fed directly from the full-flow filter
without first passing through the oil cooler. Between 74
° C and 88° C the thermostat valve plunger opens by about
9mm to allow proportionally more oil to flow through the oil cooler before being passed to the cylinder block main oil
delivery gallery. Above 88
°C the thermostat valve continues to open by about 1mm for every 10° C increase in
temperature until the valve is fully open, when all the oil flow to the cylinder block is forced to pass to the cylinder block
via the oil cooler.
An oil pressure switch is located in a port in the rear gallery of the oil cooler housing to sense the oil pressure level
before flow enters the main oil gallery in the engine block. A warning lamp in the instrument cluster is switched on if
the oil pressure is detected as being too low.

+ INSTRUMENTS, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
Drillings from the cylinder block main oil gallery direct oil to the crankshaft main bearings and cross drillings in the
crankshaft direct oil to the big-end bearings. An additional five drillings in the cylinder block supply oil at reduced
pressure to the oil squirt jets for piston cooling and gudgeon pin lubrication.
Oil supply from the cylinder block is then passed to the cylinder head galleries through a non-return valve which is
included as an integral item in the lower face of the cylinder head.
