INSTALLATION SERVICE POINT
"AACASTLE NUT INSTALLATION
1. Be sure to install the castle nut washer in the specified
direction.
2. Using the special tool, tighten the castle nut.
Caution
Before securely tightening the castle nuts, make sure
there is no load on the wheel bearings. Otherwise
wheel bearing will be damaged.
INSPECTION
INSPECTION OF WHELL BEARING ROTATION STARTING
TORQUE
1. Tighten special tools in hub and knuckle assembly to
the specified torque.
2. Measure the wheel bearing rotation starting torque with
special tools.
Limit: 1.03 N·m or less
3. Wheel bearing rotation starting torque must be under
the limit value and there should be no roughness when
rotating the hub.
WHEEL BEARING AXLE PLAY CHECK
1. Secure knuckle in a vice to measure axle play in wheel
bearing.
Limit: 0.06 mm
2. If the limit value of wheel bearing axle plya cannot be
obtained when tightened to the specified torque (245
±29 N·m), check mounting bolt for hub and knuckle
assembly. If no defects are found, replace hub assembly.

6. Remove the cap of the left bleeder screw on the torque
transfer differential and connect a vinyl hose.
7. Gradually turn the steering wheel clockwise from the
straight-ahead position. At this time, loosen the left bleeder
screw and check that fluid is discharged with air.
8. After air has been completely discharged, tighten bleeder
screw and turn the steering wheel in the straight-ahead
position.
Caution
While the system is being bled of air, add fluid as
necessary to ensure that it is left in the oil reservoir
during the entire procedure.
9. Repeat steps 6 and 7 two to three times until no air
bubbles are recognized in the fluid that comes out. Then,
tighten the bleeder screw to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 9±1 N·m
10. Perform steps 5 through 8 for the right bleeder screw.
Note, however, that the steering wheel should be turned
conterclockwise.
11. When removing the hydraulic unit, bleed the fluid line
in ACD side. (Refer to GROUP 22 – On-vehicle Service.)
12. After the system has been completely bled of air, check
for the fluid level. (Refer to P. 27B-19.)
Caution
If the system is not completely bled of air, the hydraulic
unit could generate noise, degrading pump durability.
AYC OPERATION CHECK
1. Lift up the vehicles.
2. Set the MUT-IIto the 16-pin diagnosis connector.
Caution
Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
3. Start the engine.
4. Set the gear to the 2nd gear or above, operate MUT-II,
and check from the service data (Item No.09) that the
wheel speed is within 10 km/h to 20 km/h.
NOTE
(1) Set the steering wheel to the neutral position.
(2) When turning the steering wheel, AYC operates
continually (operation sound from the torque transfer
differential), but it is not system fault. In this case,
set the steering wheel to the neutral position, and
perform the following operations in order to stop the
ACD.
DRelease the clutch.
DSet the gear to ”Neutral”.
DStop the engine.
