E. Cautions
Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF. -
Use only specified engine oil (Low Ash Oil) ▶
The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine
performance and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF. -
Issue with normal engine oil ▶
Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated
by the DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this
ashes will block the filter. -
Benefit for specified engine oil ▶
Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature. -
-
-
Problems when using unspecified engine oil ▶
The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the
filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent
regeneration of DPF. -
-
These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil
and heating oil, etc. *

4. DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURE
1) Oil Leak Diagnosis
Most fluid oil leaks are easily located and repaired by visually finding the leak and replacing or
repairing the necessary parts. On some occasions a fluid leak may be difficult to locate or repair.
The following procedures may help you in locating and repairing most leaks.
Finding the Leak ▶
Identify the fluid. Determine whether it is engine oil, automatic transmission fluid, power
steering fluid, etc.
Identify where the fluid is leaking from. -
-
After running the vehicle at normal operating temperature, park the vehicle over a large
sheet of paper.
Wait a few minutes.
You should be able to find the approximate location of the leak by the drippings on the
paper. ·
·
·
Visually check around the suspected component.
Check around all the gasket mating surfaces for leaks. A mirror is useful for finding leaks
in areas that are hard to reach.
If the leak still cannot be found, it may be necessary to clean the suspected area with a
degreaser, steam or spray solvent. -
-
Clean the area well.
Dry the area.
Operate the vehicle for several miles at normal operating temperature and varying
speeds.
After operating the vehicle, visually check the suspected component.
If you still cannot locate the leak, try using the powder or black light and dye method. ·
·
·
·
·
Clean the suspected area.
Apply an aerosol-type powder (such as foot powder) to the suspected area.
Operate the vehicle under normal operating conditoins.
Visually inspect the suspected component. You should be able to trace the leak path over
the white powder surface to the source. -

- Powder Method ▶

Leakage Test ▶
Warm the engine up to normal operating temperature.
Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Remove the spark plugs.
Check the coolant level by opening the coolant reservoir cap and replenish if insufficient.
Open the engine oil filler cap.
Connect the tester to air pressure line and adjust the scale of tester.
Install the connecting hose to spark plug hole.
Position the piston of No.1 cylinder at TDC by rotating the crankshaft.
Connect the connecting hose to tester and measure the leakage volume after blowing up
5 bar of compressed air. -
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
Measure the leakage volume in the completely opening condition of throttle valve by pulling
the acceleration cable. -
Perform the pressure test according to the firing order. -
Firing Order: 1 - 3 - 4 - 2 -
Compare the leakage pressure with the specifications. -

6) Alternator
Alternators are equipped with internal regulators.
Unlike three-wire generators, the alternator may be used with only two connections: battery
positive and an "D+" terminal to the charge indicator lamp.
As with other charging systems, the charge indicator lamp lights when the ignition switch is turned
to RUN, and goes out when the engine is running.
If the charge idicator is on with the engine running, a charging system defect is indicated. This
indicator light will glow at full brilliance for several kinds of defects as well as when the system
voltage is too high or too low.
The regulator voltage setting varies with temperature and limits the system voltage by controlling
rotor field current.
Achieve correct average field current for proper system voltage control by varying the on-off time.
At high speeds, the on-time may be 10 percent and the off-time 90 percent.
At low speeds, with high electrical loads, the on-time may be 90 percent and the off-time 10
percent.
7) Charging System
Generators use a new type of regulator that incorporates a diode trio.
A Delta stator, a rectifier bridge, and a rotor with slip rings and brushes are electrically similar
to earlier generators.
A conventional pulley and fan are used.
There is no test hole.
8) Starter
Wound field starter motors have pole pieces, arranged around the armature, which are energized
by wound field coils.
Enclosed shift lever cranking motors have the shift lever mechanism and the solenoid plunger
enclosed in the drive housing, protecting them from exposure to dirt, icy conditions, and
splashes.
In the basic circuit, solenoid windings are energized when the switch is closed.
The resulting plunger and shift lever movement causes the pinion to engage the engine flywheel
ring gear.
The solenoid main contacts close. Cranking then takes place.
When the engine starts, pinion overrun protects the armature from excessive speed until the
switch is opened, at which time the return spring causes the pinion to disengage.
To prevent excessive overrun, the switch should be released immediately after the engine starts.

4. LIMP HOME MODE
In case of transmission malfunction ▶
If a serious fault occurs in the automatic transmission, the TCU enters the limp home
mode to secure safe driving and protect the automatic transmission.
As power is no longer supplied to the solenoid, the current basic function (P, R, N, D) is
maintained and the 4th gear can be maintained only by the operation of the hydraulic
system without electrical operation.
The ECU communicates with other electric modules with CAN. If a serious fault occurs, the
transmission automatically enters the limp home mode for service.
The TCU monitors all factors which can affect to the performance of the transmission and
diagnose the system according to OBD II regulation. 1.
2.
3.
4.
In case of overheated transmission ▶
The TCU enters the limp home mode when the batter voltage drops below 8 V.
If the transmission is overheated, the shift pattern is changed to the hot mode to cool the
transmission more efficiently.
While the transmission is overheated, the selector lever symbol and engine temperature
warning lamp on the instrument cluster blink until the transmission is cooled down to the
normal operation temperature. If the transmission is excessively overheated, the gear
cannot be shifted but remains in the neutral position. 1.

3.
Towing the vehicle with A/T ▶
The best way to transport the vehicle is to load it to a truck and transport it, especially if the
vehicle is 4WD.
If towing the vehicle with the propeller shaft connected, the transmission or oil pump of
transfer case may malfunction, resulting in internal damage due to poor lubrication. -
