2004 DAEWOO NUBIRA engine overheat

ZF 4 HP 16 AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE 5A1 – 49
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
Functional Check Procedure
Inspect
1. Install a tachometer or scan tool.
2. Operate the vehicle unit proper operating tempera-
ture is reached.
3. Drive the vehicle at 80 to 88km/h (50 to 55 mph)
with light throttle(road load).
4. Maintaining throttle position, lightly touch the brake
pedal and check for release of the TCC and a slight
increase in engine speed(rpm).
5. Release the brake slowly accelerate and check for
a reapply of the Lock up clutch and a slight de-
crease in engine speed(rpm).
Torque Converter Evaluation
Torque Converter Stator
The torque converter stator roller clutch can have one of
two different type malfunctions :
A. Stator assembly freewheels in both directions.
B. Stator assembly remains Locked up at all times.
Condition A – Poor Acceleration Low
Speed
The car tends to have poor acceleration from a stand still.
At speeds above 50 to 55km/h(30 to 35mph), the car may
act normal. If poor acceleration is noted, it should first be
determined that the exhaust system is not blocked, and
the transaxle is in 1st(First) gear when starting out.
If the engine freely accelerates to high rpm in N(Neutral),
it can be assumed that the engine and exhaust system are
normal. Checking for poor performance in ”Drive” and ”Re-
verse” will help determine if the stator is freewheeling at all
times.
Condition B – Poor Acceleration High
Speed
Engine rpm and car speed limited or restricted at high
speeds. Performance when accelerating from a standstill
is normal. Engine may overheat. Visual examination of the
converter may reveal a blue color from overheating.
If the converter has been removed, the stator roller clutch
can be checked by inserting two fingers into the splined in-
ner race of the roller clutch and trying to turn freely clock-
wise, but not turn or be very difficult to turn counter clock-
wise.
Noise
Torque converter whine is usually noticed when the ve-
hicle is stopped and the transaxle is in ”Drive” or ”Re-
verse”. The noise will increase when engine rpm is in-
creased. The noise will stop when the vehicle is moving or
when the torque converter clutch is applied because both
halves of the converter are turning at the same speed.
Perform a stall test to make sure the noise is actually com-
ing from the converter :1. Place foot on brake.
2. Put gear selector in ”Drive”.
3. Depress accelerator to approximately 1200rpm for
no more than six seconds.
Notice : If the accelerator is depressed for more than six
seconds, damage to the transaxle may occur.
A torque converter noise will increase under this load.
Important : This noise should not be confused with pump
whine noise which is usually noticeable in P (Park), N
(Neutral) and all other gear ranges. Pump whine will vary
with pressure ranges.
The torque converter should be replaced under any of the
following conditions:
S External leaks in the hub weld area.
S Converter hub is scored or damaged.
S Converter pilot is broken, damaged or fits poorly
into crankshaft.
S Steel particles are found after flushing the cooler
and cooler lines.
S Pump is damaged or steel particles are found in the
converter.
S Vehicle has TCC shudder and/or no TCC apply.
Replace only after all hydraulic and electrical diag-
noses have been made.(Lock up clutch material
may be glazed.)
S Converter has an imbalance which cannot be cor–
rected. (Refer To Converter Vibration Test Proce-
dure.)
S Converter is contaminated with engine coolant con-
taining antifreeze.
S Internal failure of stator roller clutch.
S Excess end play.
S Heavy clutch debris due to overheating (blue con-
verter).
S Steel particles or clutch lining material found in fluid
filter or on magnet when no internal parts in unit are
worn or damaged(indicates that lining material
came from converter).
The torque converter should not be replace if :
S The oil has an odor, is discolored, and there is no
evidence of metal or clutch facing particles.
S The threads in one or more of the converter bolt
holes are damaged.
–correct with thread insert.
S Transaxle failure did not display evidence of dam-
age or worn internal parts, steel particles or clutch
plate lining material in unit and inside the fluid filter.
S Vehicle has been exposed to high mileage(only).
The exception may be where the Lock up clutch
damper plate lining has seen excess wear by ve-
hicles operated in heavy and/or constant traffic,
such as taxi, delivery or police use.
Lock–Up Clutch Shudder Diagnosis
The key to diagnosing lock–up clutch(TCC) shudder is to
note when it happens and under what conditions.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
CIGAR LIGHTER
The cigar lighter is located in the front portion of the floor
console. To use the lighter, push it in completely. When the
lighter is hot, it will release itself from contact with the heat-
ing element. The lighter and the heating element can be
damaged if the lighter is not allowed to release itself fully
from the heating element.
ASHTRAY
The ashtray is located below the audio system. To access
the ashtray, pull it out from the center console. The ashtray
lamp will go on when the parking lamps or the headlamps
are turned on.
INSTRUMENT PANEL VENTS
The center and the side vents in the instrument panel can
be adjusted up and down and from side to side. The side
vents can also be aimed toward the side windows in order
to defog them.
GLOVE BOX
The glove box can be opened by pulling up on the latch
handle. The glove box must be removed in order to gain
access to the passenger’s side airbag module.
DIGTAL CLOCK
The digital clock is located in the instrument panel, above
the audio system. The clock is capable of a 12–hour or a
24–hour display.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
The instrument cluster is located above the steering col-
umn and in the instrument cluster trim panel. The instru-
ment cluster contains the instruments that provide the
driver with vehicle performance information. The instru-
ment cluster contains a speedometer, an odometer, a trip
odometer, a temperature gauge, a fuel gauge, and several
indicator lamps. For replacement of the indicator lamp
bulbs contained in the instrument cluster, refer to ”Instru-
ment Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications” and”Instru-
ment Cluster Indicator Lamps” in this section.
SPEEDOMETER/ODOMETER/TRIP
ODOMETER
The speedometer measures the speed of the vehicle in
km/h (mph in some countries). It consists of an instrument
cluster gauge connected to the vehicle speed sensor
(VSS) on the transaxle output shaft.The odometer measures in kilometers (miles in some
countries) the total distance the vehicle has traveled since
it was manufactured. It consists of an instrument cluster
gauge connected to the VSS on the transaxle output shaft.
The trip odometer measures the distance the vehicle has
traveled since the odometer was last reset. It consists of
an instrument cluster gauge connected to the VSS on the
transaxle output shaft. The trip odometer can be reset to
zero at any time so that the driver can record the distance
traveled from any starting point.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge consists of an instrument cluster gauge
connected to a sending unit in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank
only when the ignition switch is turned to ON or ACC.
When the ignition is turned to LOCK or START, the pointer
may come to rest at any position.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The temperature gauge consists of an instrument cluster
gauge connected to a temperature sensor that is in con-
tact with the circulating engine coolant.
The temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the
coolant. Prolonged driving or idling in very hot weather
may cause the pointer to move beyond the center of the
gauge. The engine is overheating if the pointer moves into
the red zone at the upper limit of the gauge.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR
LAMPS
The instrument cluster contains indicator lamps that indi-
cate the functioning of certain systems or the existence of
potential problems with the operation of the vehicle. The
indicator lamps are replaceable. For replacement of the in-
dicator lamps contained in the instrument cluster, refer to
”Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps Specifications”
and”Instrument Cluster Indicator Lamps” in this section.
CHIME MODULE
The chime module is located above the instrument panel
fuse block and will sound in order to bring attention to one
or more of the following conditions:
S The lamps are on, the door is ajar, and the ignition
switch is not in ACC, ON, or START.
S The seat belt is unbuckled when the ignition switch
is in ON or START.
S The door is open when the ignition switch is in ON
or START.
S The key is left in the ignition switch when the igni-
tion is in LOCK and the door is open.
