CHECK/TOP UP COOLING SYSTEM
1. To prevent corrosion of aluminium alloy engine
parts it is imperative that cooling system is filled
with a solution of water and phosphate free
anti-freeze, winter or summer. Never fill or top up
with plain water.
WARNING: Do not remove filler cap when
engine is hot because cooling system is
pressurised and personal scalding could
result.
2. When removing filler cap, turn cap slowly
anti-clockwise, pause and allow all pressure to
escape.
3. Continue to turn until cap is removed.
4. When engine is cold expansion tank coolant
should be level with top of indicator post, visible
inside tank through filler hole.
5. If necessary, top up cooling system with
premixed coolant. Use soft water whenever
possible, if local water supply is hard, rainwater
should be used.
6. When replacing filler cap it is important that it is
tightened down fully. Failure to tighten filler cap
properly may result in water loss, with possible
damage to engine.
The cooling system should be drained and flushed at
2 year intervals or at onset of second winter. Refer to
Coolant Requirements.

CHECK/ADJUST ENGINE IDLE SPEED - Tdi
For idle speed.
See ENGINE TUNING DATA,
Information, Engine - 300Tdi
CHECK/ADJUST STEERING BOX
Check steering box for fluid leaks.
Check that there is no backlash in steering box in
straight ahead position. Adjust steering box if
necessary.
See STEERING, Adjustment, Power
Steering Box
CLEAN BATTERY CONNECTIONS
Remove battery terminals, clean and coat with
petroleum jelly.
A low maintenance battery is installed in vehicle.
Dependent upon climate conditions electrolyte levels
should be checked as follows:
Temperate climates, every three years.
Hot climates, every year.
RENEW CAMSHAFT DRIVE BELT - Tdi
Renew camshaft drive belt.
See ENGINE, Repair,
Camshaft Drive Belt and Gears
The engine timing gears are driven by a flexible
rubber belt which must be renewed at intervals
determined by the severity of operating conditions.
In reasonable, temperate climate operation, renew the
belt every 120,000 km (72,000 miles) or every six
years whichever occurs earlier.
In adverse operating conditions such as work in dusty
atmospheres, high ambient temperatures and desert
and tropical zones, renew the belt every 60,000 km
(36,000 miles) or every three years whichever occurs
earlier.
CAUTION: If the drive belt is not renewed
at the correct interval, it could fail,
resulting in serious damage.

EXTERNALLY CHECK INTERCOOLER FOR
OBSTRUCTION - Tdi
Clear any trapped dirt or flies from veins of intercooler
CLEAN INTERCOOLER ELEMENT - Tdi
Remove
1. Remove intercooler element.
2. Flush intercooler with ICI ’GENKLENE’ or
’D-SOLVE’ propriety cleaner, following the
manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Dry the intercooler completely ensuring that no
liquid remains in the element.
Refit
4. Refit intercooler element.
CHECK TURBO CHARGER BOOST PRESSURE -
Tdi
For boost pressure.
See ENGINE TUNING DATA,
Information, Turbocharger
1. Disconnect, from turbocharger, hose to actuator.
Insert into a suitable "T" piece.
2. Connect a short length of suitable hose to
turbocharger and connect other end to "T" piece.
3. Connect a further length of hose to third leg of
the "T" piece and other end to a pressure gauge
capable of reading in excess of 61 cm Hg. The
pressure gauge hose must be capable of
reaching passenger compartment so that gauge
may be observed.
4. To check maximum boost pressure, drive
vehicle normally but in such a manner that full
throttle can be maintained whilst climbing a hill
with engine speed held steady between 2,500
and 3,000 rev/min.
