SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid dumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.
FFD-14
FRONT FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
15. Remove front final drive assembly with power tool.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Refer to FFD-13, "COMPONENTS" about each tightening torque.
When installing the side shaft, apply multi-purpose grease to contact surface of side shaft and side shaft
oil seal.
Tighten mounting bolts in the order as described below when
installing front final drive assembly: side of gear carrier (1),
upper side of gear carrier (2), part of carrier cover (3), lower part
of gear carrier (4).
CAUTION:
Align the mating faces of gear carrier and oil pan for instal-
lation.
When installing breather hoses (1) and tube (2), refer to the fig-
ure.
CAUTION:
Make sure there are no pinched or restricted areas on the
breather hose caused by bending or winding when install-
ing it.
–Make sure the paint mark facing up ( ).
–Securely install the hose until it seats the rounded portion of the
tube ( ).
–Install breather connector as shown in the figure.
–Seat the breather tube bracket end (A) to the machined face (B)
of gear carrier boss.
When oil leaks while removing final drive assembly, check oil
level after the installation. Refer to FFD-8, "
Checking Differential
Gear Oil" .
