ENGINE UNIT
(Piston pin clearance) = (Piston pin hole diameter) – (Piston pin
diameter)
• If clearance exceeds specification, replace either or both the pis-
ton/piston pin assembly and the connecting rod assembly with ref-
erence to the specification of each part.
• Use the piston selection table to replace piston/piston pin assem-
bly. Refer to EM-101, "
How to Select Piston and Bearing".
• Use the connecting rod bearing selection table to replace connect- ing rod. Refer to EM-101, "
How to Select Piston and Bearing".
NOTE:
The connecting rod small end grade and piston pin hole (piston
pin) grade are provided only for the parts installed at the plant. For
service parts, no grades can be selected (only 0 grade is avail-
able).
• Follow "Connecting Rod Bushing Oil Clearance (Small End)" for the values for each grade at the plant.
PISTON RING SIDE CLEARANCE
• Measure side clearance of the piston ring and piston ring grooveusing suitable tool.
• If out of specification, replac e piston and/or piston ring assembly.
PISTON RING END GAP
• Check if the diameter of the cyli nder bore is within specification.
Refer to EM-108, "
Standard and Limit".
• Insert the piston ring into the middle of the cylinder using the pis- ton, and measure the gap.
• If out of specification, replace piston ring. Standard : 0.002 - 0.006 mm (0.0001 - 0.0002 in)

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (IPDM E/R)
Diagnosis DescriptionINFOID:0000000004215511
AUTO ACTIVE TEST
Description
In auto active test mode, the IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems to check their operation.
• Oil pressure low/coolant pressure high warning indicator
• Oil pressure gauge
• Rear window defogger
• Front wipers
• Tail, license and parking lamps
• Front fog lamps
• Headlamps (Hi, Lo)
• A/C compressor (magnetic clutch)
• Cooling fan
Operation Procedure
1. Close the hood and front door RH, and lift the wiper arms from the windshield (to prevent windshield dam-
age due to wiper operation).
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield before hand.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press the front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. Af ter that the horn sounds once and the auto active test
starts.
5. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
• If auto active test mode cannot be actua ted, check door switch system. Refer to DLK-71, "
Descrip-
tion".
• Do not start the engine.
Inspection in Auto Active Test Mode
When auto active test mode is actuated, the following 7 steps are repeated 3 times.
Operation

Operation
1 Rear window defogger 10 seconds
2 Front wipers LO for 5 seconds → HI for 5 seconds

NOTE:
• For details, refer to the regulations in your area.
• If vehicle front body has been repaired and /or the headlamp assembly has been replaced, check headlamp
aiming.
HEADLAMP AIMING
NOTE:
• Before performing aiming adjustment, check the following:
- Ensure all tires are inflated to correct pressure.
- Place vehicle and screen on level surface.
- Ensure there is no load in vehicle other than the driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position). Coolant and engine oil filled to correct level, and fuel tank full.
- Confirm spare tire, jack and tools are properly stowed.
- Aim each headlamp individually and ensure other headlamp beam pattern is blocked from screen.
- Use adjusting screw to perform aiming adjustment

Service NoticeINFOID:0000000003776097
• When removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding on the vehicle body to prevent scratches.
• Handle trim, molding, instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to soil or
damage them.
• Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.
• When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.
• When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, members, etc.), be sure to take rust preven-
tion measures.

REMOVAL
1. Remove wheel and tire using power tool.
2. Remove engine under cover using power tool.
3. Remove wheel sensor harness from mount on knuckle. CAUTION:
Do not pull on wheel sensor harness.
4. Without disassembling the hydraulic lines, remove brake caliper using power tool. Reposition it aside with wire. Refer to BR-31, "Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper and Rotor"
.
NOTE:
Avoid depressing brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
5. Remove coil spring and shock absorber assembly using power tool. Refer to FSU-14, "Removal and
Installation" .
6. Separate upper link ball joint stud from steering knuckle using Tool.
 Support lower link with jack.
7. Remove cotter pin, then remove drive shaft nut.
8. Remove drive shaft bolts from front final drive.
9. Remove drive shaft from wheel hub and bearing assembly. CAUTION:
 When removing drive shaft, do not apply an excessiveangle to drive shaft joint. Also be careful not to exces-
sively extend slide joint.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
 Move joint up, down, left, right, and in axial directi on. Check for any rough movement or significant loose-
ness.
 Check boot for cracks or other damage, and for grease leakage.
 If damaged, disassemble drive shaft to verify damage, and repair or replace as necessary.
