2007 KIA CARNIVAL Rear brake

BRAKES
The gear changing mechanism utilizes two multi- disc brakes.
LOW&REVERSE BRAKE AND SECOND BRAKE
The low&reverse brake(A) operates in 1st and reverse gears, when the vehicle is parked, and during manual
operation. It locks the low&reverse annulus gear and overdrive planetary carrier to the case.
The second(C) brake(B) operates in 2nd and 4th gears and locks the reverse sun gear(D) to the case.
The components comprising the low&reverse brake and second brake are as illustrated below.
As shown, the discs and plates of the two brakes are arranged on either side of the rear cushion plate(E), which is
itself secured to the case(F) by a snap ring.
OWC
To improve the shift feeling from 1st to 2nd gear, OWC was adopted on the low&reverse brake annulus gear. Instead
of hydraulic fixing by Low&reverse brake at the 1st gear, this mechanical fixing device was used. This structure is not
a new concept, because this OWC already has been installed on the previous models.

a.Substitute a known good set of wheels and tires.
b. Perform a road test.
c. If the vehicle still exhibits a shake or vibration, note the vehicle speed
and/or engine rpm which it occurs.
● Is the vibration felt ?
→ YES
Engine/transmission imbalance.
See the specification of TR group, EM group, FL group and EC group.
→ NO
Install the original tire/wheel assemblies one by one, Road testing at
each step until the damaged tire(s)/wheel(s) as necessary. Test the
system for normal operation.
Wheel /tire noise, vibration and harshness concerns are directly related to vehicle speed and are not generally affected
by acceleration, coasting or decelerating. Also, out - of- balance wheel and tires can vibrate at more than one speed. A
vibration that is affected by the engine rpm, or is eliminated by placing the transmission in Neutral is not related to the
tire and wheel. As a general rule, tire and wheel vibrations felt in the steering wheel are related to the front tire and
wheel assemblies. Vibrations felt in the seat or floor are related to the rear tire and wheel assemblies. This can initially
isolate a concern to the front or rear.
Careful attention must be paid to the tire and wheels. There are several symptoms that can be caused by damaged or
worn tire and wheels. Perform a careful visual inspection of the tires and wheel assemblies. Spin the tires slowly and
watch for signs of lateral or radial runout. Refer to the tire wear chart to determine the tire wear conditions and actions WHEEL AND TIRE DIAGNOSIS
