14. ENGINE COOLANT

M1001003100711

CHANGE

Check the cooling system parts such as the radiator, heater
and oil cooler hoses, thermostat and their connections for leak-
age and damage.

WARNING

When removing the radiator cap, use care to avoid
contact with hot engine coolant or steam. Place a
shop towel over the radiator cap and turn the radiator
cap counterclockwise a little to let the pressure
escape through the vinyl tube. After relieving the
steam pressure, remove the radiator cap by slowly
turning it counterclockwise.

1. Drain the engine coolant from the radiator, heater core and

engine after unplugging the radiator drain plug and removing
the radiator cap.

2. Disconnect the water hose <M/T> or cooling water line hose

<CVT>, and drain the engine coolant in the water jacket.

3. Drain the water in the water jacket by unplugging the drain

plug of the cylinder block.

4. Remove the radiator condenser tank and drain the engine

coolant.

5. Connect the water hose <M/T> or cooling water line hose

<CVT>.

6. Replace the cylinder block drain plug gasket, and tighten the

drain plug to the specified torque.

Tightening torque: 39

± 3 N⋅m (29 ± 2 ft-lb)

7. Securely tighten the radiator drain plug.
8. Reinstall the radiator condenser tank.

CAUTION

Do not use alcohol or methanol anti-freeze or any engine
coolants mixed with alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The
use of an improper anti-freeze can cause corrosion of the
aluminum components.
9. Use special tool MB991871 to refill the engine coolant up to

the top of the radiator port.

Recommended antifreeze: DIA QUEEN SUPER

LONG LIFE COOLANT PREMIUM or equivalent*

*: similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-sili-

cate, non-amine, non-nitrate and non-borate cool-
ant with long life hybrid organic acid technology

Quantity: 7.5 dm

(7.9 quarts)

[includes 0.65 dm

3

(0.69 quarts) in the radiator con-

denser tank]

NOTE: For how to use special tool MB991871, refer to its
manufacturer’s instructions.

10.Tighten the radiator cap securely.
11.Remove the radiator condenser tank cap, and add the

engine coolant up to the "FULL" line.

12.Turn the A/C switch to OFF position to start the engine and

warm up until the radiator fan operates.
NOTE: This work is to open the thermostat fully.

13.Rev the engine several times and then stop it. Check that

there are no engine coolant leaks.

14.Remove the radiator cap with the engine cool, and then refill

the engine coolant up to the top of the radiator port.

15.Tighten the radiator cap securely.

CAUTION

Do not overfill the radiator condenser tank.
16.Remove the radiator condenser tank cap, and add the

engine coolant up to the "FULL" line.

15. COOLANT HOSES (RADIATOR HOSE,
HEATER HOSE) (INSPECT)

M1001009700186

Inspect the surface of radiator hoses and heater hoses for heat
and mechanical damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking,
tears, cuts, abrasions and excessive swelling indicate deterio-
ration of the rubber.

16. DISK BRAKE PADS, ROTORS (INSPECT FOR
WEAR)

M1001003200611

.

BRAKE PAD CHECK

CAUTION

If there is a significant difference in thickness between the
brake pads at right and left, check the sliding area and the
runout of the brake disk (Refer to

P.35A-24

).

1. Visually check the thickness of brake pad from the

inspection hole of the caliper body.

Standard value: 10.0 mm (0.39 inch)
Limit: 2.0 mm (0.08 inch)

2. If the brake pad thickness is less than the limit value,

replace the brake pad (Refer to

P.35A-21

).

.

BRAKE DISK THICKNESS CHECK

1. Using a micrometer, measure disk thickness at eight

positions, approximately 45 degrees apart and 10 mm (0.4
inch) in from the outer edge of the disk.

Standard value:

26.0 mm (1.02 inch) <Front>
10.0 mm (0.39 inch) <Rear>

Limit:

24.4 mm (0.96 inch) <Front>
8.4 mm (0.33 inch) <Rear>

NOTE: Thickness variation (at least 8 positions) should not
be more than 0.015 mm (0.0006 inch).

FRONT BRAKE DISK RUN-OUT CHECK AND
CORRECTION

Place a dial gauge approximately 5 mm (0.2 inch) from the
outer circumference of the brake disk, and measure the run-out
of the disk.

Limit:

0.06 mm (0.0024 inch) <Front>
0.08 mm (0.0032 inch) <Rear>

17. BRAKE HOSES (CHECK FOR
DETERIORATION OR LEAKS)

M1001003400499

Inspection of brake hoses should be included in all brake ser-
vice operations.
The hoses should be checked for:
1. Incorrect length, severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or

worn spots. (If the fabric casing of the hoses is exposed by
cracks or abrasion in the rubber hose cover, the hoses
should be replaced. Eventual deterioration of the hose and
possible bursting failure may occur).

2. Incorrect installation, twisting or interference with wheel, tire

or chassis.

18. BALL JOINT AND STEERING LINKAGE
SEALS (INSPECT FOR GREASE LEAKS AND
DAMAGE)

M1001003500504

1. These components, which are permanently lubricated at the

factory, do not require periodic lubrication. Damaged seals
and bellows should be replaced to prevent leakage or
grease contamination.

2. Inspect the dust cover and bellows for proper sealing,

leakage and damage, and replace them if defective.
