REAR SUSPENSION 2D – 3
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
DIAGNOSIS
EXCESSIVE FRICTION CHECK
Check excessive friction in the rear suspension as follows:
1. With the aid of a helper, lift up on the rear bumper
and raise the vehicle as high as possible. Slowly
release the bumper and allow the car to assume
normal trim height.
2. Measure the distance from the floor to the center of
the bumper.
3. Push down on the bumper, release slowly, and al-
low the car to assume normal trim height.4. Measure the distance from the floor to the center of
the bumper.
The difference between the two measurements should be
less than 12.7 mm (0.50 inch). If the difference exceeds
this limit, inspect the control arms for damage or wear.
STRUT DAMPENER
A strut dampener is basically a shock absorber. However,
strut dampeners are easier to extend and retract by hand
than are shock absorbers.
Struts Seem Weak
ChecksAction
Check the tire pressures.Adjust the tire pressures to the specifications on the tire
placard.
Check the load conditions under which the vehicle is nor-
mally driven.Consult with the owner to confirm the owner’s understand-
ing of normal load conditions.
Check the compression and rebound effectiveness of the
strut dampener.Quickly push down and then lift up on the corner of the
bumper nearest the strut dampener being tested.
Compare the compression and rebound with those of a
similar vehicle that has an acceptable ride quality.
Replace the strut dampener, if needed.
Struts Are Noisy
ChecksAction
Check the mountings for looseness or damage.Tighten the strut dampener. Replace the strut dampener,
if needed.
Check the compression and rebound effectiveness of the
strut dampener.Quickly push down and then lift up on the corner of the
bumper nearest the strut dampener being tested.
Compare the compression and rebound with those of a
similar vehicle that has an acceptable ride quality.
Replace the strut dampener, if needed.
Leaks
ChecksAction
Check for a slight trace of fluid.The strut dampener is OK.
Check the seal cover on the fully extended strut.Replace the strut dampener.
Check for an excessive amount of fluid on the strut damp-
ener.Replace the strut dampener.

Tools Required
DW260–090 Clutch B/E (snap ring play, installation
space) Measuring Fixture
Measuring Installation Space, Clutch B
(EB)
1. Put the dial gauge’s sensor on the clutch B adjust-
ing ring.
2. Feed compressed air to clutch E via control valves.
3. Set dial gauge to zero.
4. Lift measurement ring B by hand until it touches the
cup and read the measurement value.
5. Repeat measurement twice with the set turned by
120°.
6. Average measurement values M4, M5, M6. (mea-
surement value is MB)
S The minimum installation space EB is equal to
the height of the ring RB (specification value ;
11.99mm) plus measurement value MB
S CALCULATION
MB = (M4+M5+M6)/3
EB = RB + MB
S EXAMPLE
M4 = 2.36mm
M5 = 2.40mm
M6 = 2.38mm
So,MB = (2.36+2.40+2.38)/3 = 2.38mm
EB = 11.99+2.38 =14.37mm
Tools Required
DW260–090 Clutch B/E(snap ring play, installation space)
Measuring Fixture
Measuring Installation Space, Clutch E(EE)
1. Put the dial gauge’s sensor on the clutch E adjust-
ing ring.
2. Set dial gauge to zero.
3. Feed compressed air to clutch E via control valves.
4. Read off the measured value.
5. Repeat measurement twice with the set turned by
120°.
6. Average measurement values M7, M8, M9. (mea-
surement value is ME)
S The minimum installation space BE is equals
ring height RE (specification value : 20.98mm)
plus ME – minus snap ring play S.
S CALCULATION
ME = (M7+M8+M9)/3
EE = RE + ME–S
S EXAMPLE
M7 = 2.6mm
M8 = 2.55mm
M9 = 2.54mm
So,ME = (2.6+2.55+2.54)/3 = 2.56mm
EE = 20.98+2.56–0.25 = 23.29mm

CLUTCH RELEASE POINT
ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment Procedure
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Run the engine at idle speed.
3. While you move the shift lever into the reverse
position, depress the clutch pedal slowly and mea-
sure the distance between the point when gear
noise is not heard and the point the clutch pedal is
completely depressed. The distance should be 30
to 40 mm (1.2 to 1.6 inches).
4. If the distance is not within the specified value,
check the following:
S Clutch pedal height
S Clutch pedal play
S Air in the system
S Clutch cover and disc pressure plate
AIR BLEEDING
Bleed the hydraulic system to remove the air which en-
tered when the pipes were disconnected for repairs. The
clutch/brake fluid in the clutch/brake reservoir must be
maintained at the MIN level or higher during air bleeding.
1. Attach a vinyl hose to the bleeder plug. Place the
other end of the vinyl tube in a glass container half–
filled with brake fluid.
2. Slowly pump the clutch pedal several times.
3. While you press the clutch pedal, loosen the bleed-
er screw until the fluid starts to run out. Close the
bleeder screw.
4. Repeat Step 3 until there are no air bubbles in the
fluid.
5. Fill the reservoir with brake fluid up to the proper
level.
PRESSURE PLATE AND CLUTCH
DISC
Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the transaxle from the vehicle. Refer to
Section 5B, Five–Speed Manual Transaxle.
3. Remove the pressure plate bolts and the pressure
plate.
Important : Support the pressure plate when you remove
the last bolt.
