General Items

  1. Explanation scope of repair procedures
    1. The repair procedures are divided into the following three main types of procedures: [Diagnosis], [Removal/Installation, Replacement, Disassembly/Assembly and Inspection/Adjustment], and [Final Inspection].
    2. Although a description of the following elemental procedures has been omitted from this information, they should be performed with the actual procedures.
      1. Jacking and lifting procedures
      2. Cleaning of removed parts as necessary
      3. Visual inspection
  2. Preparation items
    1. The preparation items that should be prepared before starting the procedures, such as SSTs, general tools and lubricant are listed in the preparation items information. However, preparation items that are considered to be of general use for repair procedures (such as tool stands, jacks and rigid racks) are omitted.
  3. Procedures
    1. The exploded view shows the corresponding information and titles as necessary.
    2. The exploded view includes descriptions of non-reusable parts, grease application locations, pre-coated bolts and tightening torques.

    3. Tightening torque, lubrication locations and non-reusable parts are described as the essential points of the procedures.
      CAUTION: If the above items can only be indicated in an illustration, an exploded view with these essentials is included. In such cases, all information such as torque and lubrication is included within the illustration.
    4. Procedures only describe essential items, with the location and contents of procedures included in an illustration, as well as detailed procedures, standard values, or precautions explained using text.
    5. In some cases, a single illustration is common to various similar models. For that reason, the actual vehicle may differ in their exact details.

    Sample

    Illustration: Target part and work

    1. Engine rear oil seal: seal installation
      1. Clean the contact surface of the crankshaft oil seal.
      2. Apply slight engine oil to the lip of a new engine rear oil seal.
      3. Using SST, strike in the new engine rear oil seal so that it is flush with the end surface of the engine rear oil seal retainer.

    SST 18671AA020, 18657AA030

    CAUTION:
    • Do not strike in the engine rear oil seal obliquely.
    • Do not deform the engine rear oil seal.
    • Do not strike in the engine rear oil seal excessively.
    NOTE: At striking in, the protrusion length of the engine rear oil seal is allowed 0 to -0.5 mm from the end surface of the engine rear oil seal retainer.

  4. How to read the repair standard values
    1. Standard values and limits are printed in bold text.
  5. Definitions of terms
    Standard value Indicates the tolerance range during inspection and adjustment.
    Limit Indicates the maximum or minimum value that cannot be surpassed during inspection and adjustment.
    Reference value If the measurement method for determining the standard value is quite difficult, this indicates a standard value for an easy measurement method when there is no possibility that a malfunction will occur.
    <Warning> Used to indicate that there is a danger of injury to the personnel performing the procedures or other personnel, and indicate that there is a danger of injury or accident if the instructions are not followed.
    <Caution> Used to indicate special precautions that must be taken regarding items and procedures that must be performed because failure to perform them will result in damage to the vehicle or parts.
    <Note> Used to indicate supplemental explanations separate from the current text in order to make procedures easier to perform/understand.
  6. SI units
    1. The units used in this information are SI units (International System of Units), and are as described in the following format of meters and yards/pounds.

      (Ex.)

      Standard value: T=28N.m {286kgf.cm} {20.7ft.lbf}
