2.10 Lower Engine Noise, Regardless of
Engine Speed
NOTE
A cold piston knock which disappears in
approximately 1.5 minutes from start up should
be considered acceptable. A cold engine knock
usually disappears when t he specific cylinder’s
secondary ignition circuit is grounded out during
diagnosis.
A light rattle/tapping noise may indicate a valve train/upper engine concern, while a low rumble/knocking may indicate a
crankshaft, piston or lower engine concern.

2.20 Accessory Drive Belt Diagnosis
Tension Check
NOTE
An accessory drive belt that squeaks when the
engine is started or st opped is considered normal
and has no effect on drive belt durability.
1 Start the engine and switch off the air-conditioning system . Allow engine to run until normal operating temperature
has been reached.
2 Turn the engine off and inspect the markings on the drive belt tensioner to confi rm the drive belt tension is
within the operating limits.

3 If the markings on the drive belt tensioner were outside the acceptable operat ing limits, replace the
accessory drive belt, refer to 3.5 Accessory Drive
Belt .

NOTE
The operating limits for acceptable drive belt
tension are when the driv e belt tensioner pointer
(1) is aligned between the outer edge of the
minimum and maximum tension marks (2).
