* Vehicles equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system must be inspected for correct operation
using the diagnostic tool.
To maximize tire performance, inspect the tires for
signs of incorrect inflation and uneven wear which
may indicate a need for balancing, rotation or
suspension alignment. Tires should also be
checked frequently for cuts, stone bruises,
abrasions, blisters and for objects that may have
become embedded in the tread. More frequent
inspections are recommended when rapid or ( extreme temperature changes occur or when road
surfaces are rough or occasionally littered with
foreign material.
As a further visible check of tire condition, tread
wear indicators are molded into the bottom of the
tread grooves. When these indicator bands become
visible, new tires must be installed.
Tire Wear Diagnosis
Uneven wear is usually caused by either excessive
camber or excessive toe on tires.
Sometimes incorrect toe settings or worn struts will
cause severe 'cupping' or 'scalloped' tire wear on
non-driven wheels.
Severely incorrect toe settings will also cause other unusual wear patterns.
Tire Vibration Diagnosis
A tire vibration diagnostic procedure always begins
with a road test. The road test and customer
interview (if available) will provide much of the
information needed to find the source of a vibration. During
the road test, drive the vehicle on a road
that is smooth and free of undulations. If vibration
is apparent, note and record the following:
- the speed at which the vibration occurs.
- what type of vibration occurs in each speed
range.
- mechanical or audible
- how the vibration is affected by changes in the
following:
- engine torque
- vehicle speed
- engine speed
- type of vibration - sensitivity:
- torque sensitive
- vehicle speed sensitive
- engine speed sensitive
The following explanations help isolate the source
of the vibration.
Torque Sensitive
This means that the condition can be improved or
made worse by accelerating, decelerating,
coasting, maintaining a steady vehicle speed or
applying engine torque.
Vehicle Speed Sensitive
This means that the vibration always occurs at the
same vehicle speed and is not affected by engine
torque, engine speed or the transmission gear
selected.

Brake System - General Information
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
evidence of a brake concern. Check for the brake
warning indicator illumination and the fluid level in
the master cylinder reservoir.
Normal Conditions
The following conditions are considered normal
and are not indications that the brake master
cylinder is in need of service.
- Modern brake systems are not designed to
produce as hard a pedal effort as in the past.
Complaints of light pedal efforts should be
compared to pedal efforts of another vehicle, of
the same model and year.
- During normal operation of the brake the fluid
level in the reservoir will rise during brake
application and fall during release. The net fluid
level
(i.e., after brake application and release)
will remain unchanged.
- A trace of brake fluid will exists on the brake
booster shell below the master cylinder
mounting flange. This results from the normal
lubricating action of the master cylinder bore
end seal.
- The fluid level will fall with brake shoe and lining
wear.
Abnormal Conditions
N0TE:Prior to performing any diagnosis, make
sure the brake system warning indicator is
functional.
Changes in brake pedal feel or travel are indicators
that something could be wrong with the braking system. The diagnostic procedure and techniques
use brake pedal feel, warning indicator illumination
and low brake fluid level as indicators in diagnosing
braking system concerns. The following conditions
are considered abnormal and indicate that the
brake master cylinder is in need of service.
- The brake pedal effort is excessive. This may
be caused by a bind or obstruction in the pedal
.
or linkage, clogged fluid control valve or ( ' insufficient booster vacuum.
- The rear brakes lock up during light pedal force.
This may be caused by incorrect tire pressures,
grease or fluid on the brake shoes and linings,
damaged brake shoes and linings, incorrectly
adjusted parking brake, or damaged or
contaminated brake pressure control valves.
- The brake pedal effort is erratic. This condition
could be caused by a brake booster malfunction,
extreme caliper piston knock back or incorrectly
installed brake shoes and linings.
- The brake warning indicator is ON. This may
be caused by low fluid level, ignition wire routing
too close to the fluid level indicator assembly,
or float assembly damage.
Bypass Condition Test
1. Check the fluid in brake master cylinder. Fill the
brake master cylinder reservoir if low or empty.
2. Observe the fluid level in the brake master
cylinder reservoir. If after several brake
applications, the fluid level remains the same,
measure the wheel turning torque required to
rotate the wheels with the brakes applied as
follows:
Place the transaxle in NEUTRAL and raise and
support the vehicle. REFER to: (1 00-02 Jacking
and Lifting)
Jacking (Description and Operation),
Lifting (Description and Operation).
Apply the brakes with a minimum of 445 N (100
Ib) and hold for approximately 15 seconds. With
the brakes still applied, exert a torque on the front
wheels of 10.1 Nm (75
1b.R). If either wheel rotates,
install a new brake master cylinder. REFER to:
(206-06 Hydraulic Brake Actuation)
- The brake pedal goes down fast. This could be Brake Master Cylinder - RHD (Removal and
caused by an external or internal leak. Installation),
- The brake
pedal eases down slowly. This could Brake Master Cylinder - LHD
(Removal and
be caused by an external or internal leak. Installation).
- The
brake pedal is low and or feels spongy. This
condition may be caused by no fluid in the brake
Non-Pressure Leaks master cylinder reservoir, reservoir cap vent
holes clogged or air in the hydraulic system.
Any empty brake master cylinder reservoir
condition may be caused by two types of
non-pressure external leaks.

Clutch Controls
DESCRIPTION
AND OPERATION
Because of this separate chamber, the braking
system remains operational if a leak occurs in the
hydraulic clutch system.
Function
Pressure is created in the master cylinder when
the clutch pedal is operated.
The hydraulic fluid in the master cylinder is put
under pressure and fed through the pressure pipe
to the slave cylinder.
The displaced hydraulic fluid moves the piston in
the slave cylinder and this in turn slides the release
bearing axially.
The release bearing pushes the bearing inner ring
against the tongues of the diaphragm spring.
The spring induced grip between the clutch disc
and the flywheel is broken.
When the clutch pedal is released the diaphragm
spring presses the piston in the slave cylinder back
to its starting position. The spring induced grip
between the clutch disc and the flywheel is created
again.
A spring in the slave cylinder ensures preload on
the release bearing.
The release bearing is always touching the
pressure plate because of this preload. The extra
travel caused by clutch lining wear is compensated
for by the preload.
There is a choke assembly in the slave cylinder
which helps to increase smoothness when pulling
away.
Because of the choke assembly, the pressure drop
of the fluid leaving the slave cylinder and returning
to the reservoir is delayed.
Because of this, the clutch closing time is delayed
when the clutch pedal is released suddenly, and
a soft and comfortable clutch engagement is
achieved.
Choking does not occur during clutch
disengagement.
A CAUTI0N:Vehicles with an automated shift
manual (ASM) transmission have
a slave
cylinder without
a choke assembly. The
slave cylinders must not be exchanged for
one another.
N0TE:The clutch pedal travel cannot be adjusted.
The release bearing is an interference fit in the
slave cylinder and cannot be renewed separately.
