On Board Diagnosis LogicUBS00QKV
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise. When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction
is indicated.
This self-diagnosis has the one trip detection logic.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant. Refer to CO-8, "
Changing Engine
Coolant" . Also, replace the engine oil. Refer to LU-6, "Changing Engine Oil" .
1. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to
use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-12, "
Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio" .
2. After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
Overall Function CheckUBS00QKW
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the cooling fan. During this check, a DTC might not be con-
firmed.
WA RN ING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pres-
sure fluid escaping from the reservoir tank or the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up
pressure to escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Check the coolant level in the reservoir tank and radiator.
Allow engine to cool before checking coolant level.
If the coolant level in the reservoir tank and/or radiator is below
the proper range, skip the following steps and go to EC-450,
"PROCEDURE FOR MODELS WITH A/C" or EC-454, "PRO-
CEDURE FOR MODELS WITHOUT A/C" .
2. Confirm whether customer filled the coolant or not. If customer
filled the coolant, skip the following steps and go to EC-450,
"PROCEDURE FOR MODELS WITH A/C" or EC-454, "PRO-
CEDURE FOR MODELS WITHOUT A/C" .
3. Turn ignition switch ON.

10. Install camshaft sprocket (EXH) (2).
NOTE:
Secure the hexagonal part (A) of camshaft (EXH) using wrench
to tighten bolt.
11. Install timing chain and related parts. Refer to EM-37, "
TIMING CHAIN" .
12. Inspect and adjust valve clearance. Refer to EM-55, "
Valve Clearance" .
13. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak.
Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to GI-46, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants" .
Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in the guide may
generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop after
hydraulic pressure rises.
Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil
and engine coolant.
Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
Inspection of Camshaft Sprocket (INT) Oil Groove
CAUTION:
Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011 is detected in self-diagnostic results of CONSULT-II
and it is directed according to inspection procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-47, "
ON BOARD
DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM" .
Check when engine is cold so as to prevent burns from the splashing engine oil.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-5, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Perform the following procedure so as to prevent the engine from being unintentionally started while
checking.

If the engine speed is out of the specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check engine
speed again with normal battery gravity.
If compression pressure is below minimum value, check valve clearances and parts associated with
combustion chamber (Valve, valve seat, piston, piston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head
gasket). After the checking, measure the compression pressure again.
If some cylinder has low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug hole
of the cylinder to re-check it for compression.
–If the added engine oil improves the compression, piston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check
piston rings and replace if necessary.
–If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, valves may be mal-
functioning. Check valves for damage. Replace valve or valve seat accordingly.
If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low compression pressure and their compression remains
low even after the addition of engine oil, cylinder head gasket is leaking. In such a case, replace cylin-
der head gasket.
9. After inspection is completed, install removed parts.
10. Start the engine, and confirm that the engine runs smoothly.
11. Perform trouble diagnosis. If DTC appears, erase it. Refer to EC-83, "
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" .

LIFTING POINTPFP:00000
Special Service Tools EAS001ZY
CAUTION:
Every time the vehicle is lifted up, maintain the complete vehicle curb condition.
Since the vehicle's center of gravity changes when removing main parts on the front side (engine,
transmission, suspension etc.), support a jack up point on the rear side garage jack with a mission
jack or equivalent.
Since the vehicle's center of gravity changes when removing main parts on the rear side (rear axle,
suspension, etc.), support a jack up point on the front side garage jack with a mission jack or
equivalent.
Be careful not to smash or do not do anything that would affect piping parts.
Garage Jack and Safety Stand and 2-Pole LiftEAS001ZZ
WAR NIN G:
Park the vehicle on a level surface when using the jack. Make sure to avoid damaging pipes,
tubes, etc. under the vehicle.
Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands when
you have to get under the vehicle.
Place wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheels on the ground.
When lifting the vehicle, open the lift arms as wide as possible and ensure that the front and rear
of the vehicle are well balanced.
When setting the lift arm, do not allow the arm to contact the brake tubes, brake cable, fuel lines
and sill spoiler.
