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 with 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)

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.

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. -

3. GUIDELINES ON ENGINE SERVICE
G20DF engine is for FF (Front Engine Front Drive) type vehicle. Therefore, there are some deferent
maintenance and repair works compared to the engine for FR (Front Engine Rear Drive) type vehicle.
For safe and correct works, you must observe the working procedures and instructions in this manual.
And, use the designated tools as follow:
: Power train mounting stand / Engine hanger / Engine stand / Heavy duty engine jack.
Cautions before service works
G20DF engine is FF (Front Engine Front Drive) type engine, and the engine and transmission are
integrated in a same module. Remember that there are many differences compared to
conventional engine in FR (Front Engine Rear Drive) type SUV vehicle.
To remove the engine, use the dedicated equipments such as engine jack, transmission jack,
engine stand and engine crane (1 ton).
To prevent the engine from abruptly starting during service in engine compartment, never allow
anybody to stay in the vehicle.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to electric
systems.
Make sure to clean the working area and to prepare the necessary tools before service works.
Always place the ignition switch to OFF position if not required. Otherwise, there could be
unexpected damage to electric devices or personal injuries due to short-circuit..
To prevent the foreign material from entering into the fuel injection system, completely seal the
inlets of HP pump, fuel hoses and high pressure pipes.
Do not remove the engine while supporting the oil pan with a jack. -

CAN scan(This message goes off when all the CAN signal inputs
are normal)
ESCLLCD display shows this message when ESCL (Electric
Steering Column Lock) system is defective. There is
no specific ESCL warning light on the instrument
cluster.
This problem could be temporary. Turn the ignition off
and then on again to check if this message will be
disappeared.
This message helps the driver to predict the driving
direction since the tire alignment is displayed on the
instrument cluster.
The images on the left show that the tires are
aligned to the left. When the tires are aligned to the
right, the image is symmetrical vertically.
Tire alignment is displayed between level 0 and
level 5 depending on the alignment degree when
the ignition switch is turned to "ON" position from
"OFF" position with the shift lever in "P" or "N"
position. While the images up to level 2 comes on
for 5 seconds, the images from level 3 stay on.
