FLYWHEEL DEFLECTION (M/T MODELS)

Measure the deflection of flywheel contact surface to clutch with
a dial indicator.

Measure the deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) dia.

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.
CAUTION:
When measuring, keep magnetic fields (such as dial indicator
stand) away from signal plate of the rear end of crankshaft.
MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS)
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble double mass flywheel.
Movement Amount of Thrust (Fore-and-Aft) Direction

Measure the movement amount of thrust (fore-and-aft) direction when 100 N (10.2 kg, 22 lb) force is
added at the portion of 125 mm (4.92 in) radius from the center of flywheel.

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.
Movement Amount in Radial (Rotation) Direction
Check the movement amount of radial (rotation) direction with the following procedure:
1. Install a bolt to clutch cover mounting hole, and place a torque wrench on the extended line of the flywheel
center line.

Tighten bolt at a force of 9.8 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 87 in-lb) to keep it from loosening.
2. Put a mating mark on circumferences of the two flywheel
masses without applying any load (Measurement standard
points).
3. Apply a force of 9.8 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 87 in-lb) in each direction,
and mark the movement amount on the mass on the transaxle
side.
4. Measure the dimensions of movement amounts “A” and “B” on
circumference of the flywheel on the transaxle side.

If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.Standard : 0.45 mm (0.0177 in) or less.

FRONT WHEEL HUB AND KNUCKLEPFP:40202
On-Vehicle InspectionEDS0005R
Inspect to check that there is no excessive play, cracking, wear, or
other damage to front axle.

Turn front wheels (left/right) and check the play.

Check that no nails or other foreign objects are embedded.

Retighten all axle nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS
With the vehicle raised, inspect the following.

Move wheel hub in the axial direction by hand. Check that there is no looseness of front wheel bearings.

Rotate wheel hub and check that there is no unusual noise or other irregular conditions. If there are any
irregular conditions, replace the wheel bearing.
Removal and InstallationEDS0005S
REMOVAL
1. Remove tyre. Remove brake hose lock plate from strut.
2. Remove brake caliper from steering knuckle. Hang it in a place where it will not interfere with work. Refer
to BR-27, "
FRONT DISC BRAKE" .
CAUTION:
Avoid depressing the brake pedal with brake caliper removed.
3. Remove wheel sensor from steering knuckle. Refer to BRC-116, "
WHEEL SENSORS" .
CAUTION:

4. Use a drift (SST) and a press to install wheel hub.
5. As shown in the figure, apply a load of 34,324 – 49,033 N
(3500 – 5,000 kg, 7718 – 11,025 lb). Rotate in forward and
reverse directions 10 times each to ensure a good fit.
6. At a rotation speed of 10±2 rpm, place a spring balance at the
point where strut is joined (upper-side bolt hole). Measure rotat-
ing torque. Refer to FA X - 1 9 , "
Wheel Bearing" .
NOTE:
If a load of 34,300 – 49,033 N (3,500 – 5,000 kg, 7718 – 11,025 lb) cannot be applied, carry out the fol-
lowing actions.

Assemble drive shaft and tighten wheel hub lock nuts to specified torque. Then rotate in forward and
reverse direction 10 times each to ensure a good fit.

At a rotation speed of 10±2 rpm, place a spring balance on hub bolt to measure torque. Rotating torque : 1.645 N·m (0.17 kg-m, 15 in-lb) or
less
Spring balance
reading: 10.6 N (1.1 kg, 2.4 lb) or less
