M6LF1 manual transmission
M6LF1 manual transmission is a model modified from the
one that used in other vehicle so that it can be applied to FF
(Front engine-Front wheel driving) type vehicle, and has an
axle in one piece. The engine torque and gear ratio of this
transmission have been optimized to maximize driving
performance. It provides 6 speeds for forward travel and 1
reverse travel.

The 2WD vehicle with manual transmission is a front wheel drive type vehicle that doesn't have PTU,
propeller shaft, E-coupling and rear axle which are applied to 4WD vehicle. Its under structure is very
simple.

Stabilizer bar assembly
The stabilizer bar assembly is not activated if the left/right
wheels move up/down simultaneously, but if both wheels
move up/down differently it is activated with frame to
minimize the tilting of the body.
5. FRONT SUSPENSION COMPONENT LAYOUT
Front suspension supports the vehicle weight and absorber the vibration from tires. And, in this type of
suspension, the steering linkage tie rod is mounted on the knuckle. The Macpherson Strut suspension
is an independent suspension which has a spring on the strut with a built-in shock absorber. The lower
arm is installed on sub frame and large strut damper is installed on the knuckle to support the tire.
Lower arm assembly
The lower arm assembly connects the frame and
knuckle. It supports the load transferred to the tire
knuckle, relieves the impact from the vehicle and ground
conditions, and ensures driving stability.

Coil spring
Coil spring is installed between
the coil spring link and body
frame. It relieves the vibrations
and impacts from wheels to
vehicle body.
Lower arm assembly
The lower arm is installed between knuckle and rear
sub frame and relieves the load to coil spring from
wheel. In other word, it controls the longitudinal load.

H. Parking brake
M/T A/T
The parking brake is the mechanical device to
hold the vehicle. When pulling up the lever, the
parking brake cable between the lever and the
rear drum brake trailing shoe pulls the parking
brake lining to contact to drum.
E. Rear brake assembly
The disc brake for 4WD vehicle has the same
structure with the one for 2WD vehicle, but the
appearance and knuckle shape is different from
each other.

The wheel speed sensor for 4WD has the same
structure and mounting location with the one for
2WD vehicle. But the rear side wheel speed
sensor for 2WD vehicle has different sensor
appearance and mounting status because the
knuckle shape is different from the 4WD vehicle.

Steering gear box assembly
The steering gear box assembly consists of power cylinder and control valve. The power cylinder has a
cylinder, piston and piston rod. The control valve directs the oil to one end face of the piston to enhance
the steering force. There is a safety check valve which lets the driver steer manually when there is a
malfunction in the hydraulic circuit.
8. STEERING SYSTEM LAYOUT
1) HPS (Hydraulic Power Steering)
The hydraulic pump is a vane
type pump and consists of the
flow control valve and pressure
relief valve.The oil reservoir sends the oil to
the power steering pump and
receives the oil from the power
steering gear.There is a shock absorber which
is folded in the axial direction
when the vehicle is crashed and
a ignition switch assembly on
the column shaft.
The lower shaft minimizes the
torque change using a CV joint
which has constant angular
speed.

ECU
The ECU controls the electric
power steering system
depending on the driving
conditions, based on the
signals from the torque and
angle sensor.
2) EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Fuse
The vehicle with EPS has
EPS fuse (80A) mounted to
the positive (+) terminal of the
battery, and this fuse supplies
power to the EPS unit
directly..
Steering gear box assembly
When the driver turns the steering wheel, a torque is generated and the torque sensor and the steering
angle sensor in the EPS system detect the rotation of the steering column to run the electric motor. At
this time, the worm gear connected to the motor drives the helical gear mounted to the steering column
to generate the assist torque for the steering column. This allows the driver to operate the steering
wheel easier.

The column shaft assembly consists
of BLAC motor, ECU, torque and

steering (EPS) system uses the
electric motor to assist the steering
force. It functions independently
regardless of whether the engine is
running or not, unlike the existing
hydraulic power steering.
The lower shafts functions in the
same way as the hydraulic type.

3) General Instructions
Before lifting up the vehicle with a lift, correctly support the lifting points.
When using a jack, park the vehicle on a level ground and place the wheel chocks under the tires.
Position the jack under the frame and lift up the vehicle and then support with chassis stand before
service work.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to electric
systems.
If you have to work on vehicle, cover the seats and floor with protection covers to avoid any
damage and contamination.
Brake fluid and anti-freeze can damage the painted surface of body. So carefully handle them
during service work.
To improve the efficiency of service work, use only recommended and specified tools.
Use only Ssangyong genuine spare parts.
Never reuse the cotter pin, gasket, O-ring, oil seal, lock washer and self-locking nut. Replace them
with new ones. If reused, normal functions cannot be maintained.
Store the disassembled parts as a set based on disassembly order and unit.
Pay particular attention not to miss or mix the fasteners.
If necessary, especially for inspection, clean the removed parts completely.
Apply the oil or grease on the running and sliding surfeces before installation. Use the specified
sealant and gasket to prevent leakage if necessary.
Tighten the fasteners to the specified tightening torque.
As a final stage of service work, check if the serviced system is working properly and the problem
has been eliminated clearly. (1)

2) Equipment
Korando is FF (Front Engine Front Drive) type vehicle, and engine and powertrain system are
integrated into a module. Therefore, 2-post lift and general equipment are necessary when working
on the engine and transmission.
Major equipment: Engine and transmission jack, Engine stand, Engine crane, Transmission jack,
Engine hanger -

4) Basic Inspection
(1) Horn operation
Listen for the horn sound when pressing the horn pad on the steering wheel. -
(2) Brake operation
Check if there is any abnormal noise, unusually long braking distance, or uneven braking force. If the
brake warning lamp does not go out even after starting the engien or are flashing during driving,
have the brake system checked immediately.
Check the brake pipes and hoses for connection, oil leak, crack or interference after changing the
position of tires. When replacing the tires, check the brake disc for surface condition and wear.
Check the parking brake cable and brake operation. Shorten the checking interval if the parking
brake is used frequently. -
-
-
(3) Exhaust system
Be aware to any changes in sound or smell from the exhaust system. These may be caused by leak or
overheat. Have the exhaust system checked and repaired immediately.
Inspect the exhaust system including catalytic converter. Inspect all the components and body frame
near the exhaust system. -
-
(4) Tires
Unusual vibration of the steering wheel and seats or pulling to one side on the straight and level roads
may indicates the uneven tire inflation pressure or poor wheel balance. -
(5) Steering and suspension system
Inspect the front and rear suspension and the steering system for damage, looseness or missing
parts, signs of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering line and the hoses for
connection, leak, crack and chafing. Inspect the drive axle boot and seals for damage, tear or leak.
Replace or repair the system if necessary. -
(6) Engine oil
Check the oil level when the engine is still warm and add the specified engine oil if necessary. -
(7) Coolant
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir, coolant conditions (contamination, foreign material),
and hoses for damage and leak. Replace or add the Ssangyong genuine coolant, if needed. -
(8) Engine drive belt
Check all drive belts on the engine for wear, crack and looseness. Retighten or replace the belt, if
needed. -
