DRIVE BELT
DRIVE BELT : CheckingINFOID:0000000005714309
• Inspection should be done only when engine is cold or over 30minutes after the engine is stopped.
• Visually check belts for wear, damage, and cracks on inside and edges.
• Turn crankshaft pulley two times clockwise, and make sure tension on all pulleys is equal before doing the test.
• When measuring deflection, apply 98 N (10 kg, 22 lb) at the ( ) marked point.
• Measure the belt tension and frequency with acous tic tension gauge at the ( ) marked point.
CAUTION:
• When the tension and frequency are measured, the acoustic tension gauge should be used.
• When checking immediately after installation, first ad just it to the specified value. Then, after turning
crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified value to avoid variation in deflection
between pulleys.
DRIVE BELT : Tension AdjustmentINFOID:0000000005714310
CAUTION:
• When belt is replaced with new one, adjust belt tension to the value for “New belt”, because new belt will not fully seat in the pulley groove.
• When tension of the belt being used exceeds “Limit”, adjust it to the value for “After adjusted”.
• When installing a belt, make sure it is correctly engaged with the pulley groove.
• Never allow oil or engine coolant to get on the belt.
• Never twist or bend the belt strongly.
1. Loosen the idler pulley lock nut (A) from the tightening position with the specified torque by 45 degrees.

STEERING WHEEL
STEERING WHEEL
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000005396934
CHECKING CONDITION OF INSTALLATION
• Check installation conditions of steering gear assembly, front suspension assembly, axle and steering col-
umn assembly.
• Check if movement exists when steering wheel is mo ved up and down, to the left and right and to the axial
direction.
• Check steering gear assembly mounting bolts and nuts for looseness. Refer to PS-12, "
Removal and Instal-
lation".
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL PLAY
• Turn steering wheel so that front wheels come to the straight-ahead position. Start engine and lightly turn
steering wheel to the left and right until front wheels start to move. Measure steering wheel movement on the
outer circumference.
• When the measurement value is outside the standard val ue, check backlash for each joint of steering col-
umn assembly and installation condition of steering gear assembly.
CHECKING NEUTRAL POSITION STEERING WHEEL
• Make sure that steering gear assembly, steering column assembly and steering wheel are installed in the correct position.
• Perform neutral position inspection after wheel alignment. Refer to SRS-2, "
Precaution for Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER"".
• Set vehicle to the straight-ahead position and c onfirm steering wheel is in the neutral position.
• Loosen outer socket lock nut and turn inner socket to left and right equally to make fine adjustments if steer-
ing wheel is not in the neutral position.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level and dry surface, set parking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Check steering wheel turning force when steering wheel has
been turned 360 ° from neutral position using Tool as shown.
4. If steering wheel turning force is out of the specification, refer to STC-27, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
CHECKING FRONT WHEEL TURNING ANGLE
Steering wheel axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)
Steering wheel play : 0 - 35 mm (0 - 1.38 in)
Tool number : — (J-44372)
Steering wheel
turning force : Less than 36 N (3.7 kg-f, 8.2 lb-f)

SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area c an often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sun visor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headliner and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
OVERHEAD CONSOLE (FRONT AND REAR)
Overhead console noises are often caused by the c onsole panel clips not being engaged correctly. Most of
these incidents are repaired by pushing up on the c onsole at the clip locations until the clips engage.
In addition look for:
1. Loose harness or harness connectors.
2. Front console map/reading lamp lens loose.
3. Loose screws at console attachment points.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the pos ition the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of thes e incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component installed on the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the \
vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.

• Fully close the glass lid before removal, then do not operate sunroof motor assembly after removal.
• When removing sunroof unit assembly, use shop cl oths to protect the seats and trim from damage.
• Always work with a helper.
NOTE:
For easy installation, mark each point before removal.

tion".
CAUTION:
Do not pull on wheel sensor harness.
3. Set jack under rear suspension beam.
4. Remove shock absorber lower side bolt. Refer to RSU-9,
"Removal and Installation".
5. Gradually lower the jack, and then remove coil spring and rear spring rubber seat (upper and lower).
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Check coil spring and spring rubber seat for deformation, cracks, and damage, and replace it if a malfunction
is detected.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• For tightening torque, refer to RSU-8, "
Component".
• Tighten wheel nuts to specification. Refer to WT-7, "
Adjustment".
• When installing spring, be sure to securely install the spring end position aligned to flush of rear spring rubber seat (lower) as
shown.
