Principles of Operation
The steering wheel rotational movement is
transferred to the steering gear through the steering
column shaft. The steering gear converts this
rotational movement, through the action of the rack
and pinion gear into lateral movement. This
movement in turn is transferred to the wheel
knuckles through the tie-rods and tie-rod ends.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure is supplied to the
steering gear by the power steering pump. As the
steering wheel is rotated, the hydraulic fluid is
allowed to pass through the steering gear valve to
one side of a double acting piston, dependent on
which direction the steering wheel is rotated. The
fluid moves the piston, which forms part of the
steering gear, giving power assistance to the effort
required to rotate the steering wheel.
Vehicles with petrol engines, due to the extra load
on the engine imposed by the power steering
pump, have a power steering pressure (PSP)
switch. The switch, which is normally closed, sends a signal
to the powertrain control module (PCM)
during low speed parking manoeuvres. The PCM
responds by maintaining the engine idle speed.
lnspection and Verification
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical
or electrical damage.

303-00-5 Engine System - General Information 303-00-5
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Symptom
Oil consumption
Possible Sources Action
Use of the wrong type of
engine oil.
Faulty positive crankcase vent-
ilation (PCV) system.
- Hoses or ventilation or
breather valves are blocked.
This causes excessive
pressure in the crankcase
which causes more oil to
enter the combustion
chamber.
- PCV oil separator is faulty
and engine oil can enter the
combustion chamber
through the intake manifold.
Turbocharger seals (diesel
engine only).
DETERMINE the last type of
engine oil used and compare
with the specification. Change
the engine oil to the specifica-
tion.
CHECK if the PCV system is
operating correctly and repair
as necessary. REFER to:

Engine - Oil Leaks
NOTE: Before installing new gaskets or seals, make
sure that the fault is clearly established.
If the oil leak cannot be identified clearly by a visual
inspection, carry out an ultraviolet
(UV) test:
Ultraviolet (UV) Testing
1. Clean the engine and transmission with a
suitable cleaning fluid.
2. Pour the UV-test fluid in accordance with the
quantity specified by the manufacturer through
the oil filler neck into the engine and install the
oil filler cap.
A WARN1NG:Vehicles with manual transaxle,
shift the transaxle into Neutral. Failure to
follow this instruction may result in
personal injury.
3. Start the engine and let it run for about five
minutes. 4.
Switch off the engine.
N0TE:lf no leak can be found, road test the vehicle
under various loads and check the engine for leaks
again.
5. Check the engine for oil leaks using a suitable
UV lamp.
'
6. Rectify any leaks found and check the engine
for oil leaks.
Measure the compression pressure
N0TE:The powertrain control module (PCM)
receives an error message when the fuel pump
relay is removed or electrical components are
disconnected. This error message must be deleted
from the fault memory using WDS after completing
the compression test.
(' ,
'I N0TE:Valve clearance must be set correctly before
performing a compression test. Make sure the
engine is at the normal operating temperature.
