3. DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL (DMF)
The dual mass flywheel (DMF) is of having a mass divided into two halves.
While one mass is connected to the engine crankshaft, which is affected by the mass moment of 
inertia of the engine, the other mass is affected by one of the transmission.
The divided dual masses are connected to the coil spring and damping system internally.
The DMF has the following benefits: ▶
Reducing fuel consumption by lowering engine speed
Reducing rattling noise and vehicle vibration in all driving ranges
Reducing synchronization wear
Facilitating gear change
Protecting power train parts by preventing excessive load from being delivered -

Oil Level Check ▶ 
Check the fluid level on a level ground with the 
engine turned off. The fluid level should be 
between the MIN and MAX marks on the 
reservoir cap gauge.
Place the vehicle on a level ground and start 
the engine and let it run at idle speed.
Turn the steering wheel several times so that 
the oil temperature reaches to normal 
operating level (75~85˚C).
Place the steering wheel at straight ahead 
direction.
Check the oil level in the power steering oil 
reservoir. Adjust the oil level between MAX 
and MIN. A.

D.
Oil Change ▶ 
If the difference between two measurements 
is below 5 mm and the level is between MAX 
and MIN level, it's normal. If it is over 5 mm, 
bleed air from the system.
Open the power fluid reservoir cap and drain 
the fluid completely with oil suction device. 
To make it easy, turn the steering wheel to its 
both ends several times.
Fill up the specified fluid into fluid reservoir 
and bleed air from the steering system. A.

Air Bleeding ▶ 
The air bleeding should be done after servicing the 
power steering system and when the difference 
between two measurements (cooled and normal 
temperature) is prominent.
Normal AbnormalLift up the vehicle very carefully.
Turn the steering wheel to its both ends 
several times and add the oil up to MAX line 
in the steering oil reservoir.
Periodically crank the starting motor and turn 
the steering wheel to its both ends without 
any interruption.
Check the oil level again. If the oil level is 
fluctuated, repeat the procedures from step 3 
to step 5.
Start the engine.
Turn the steering wheel to its both ends until 
any bubble can be found in the steering oil 
reservoir.
Perform the test drive and check the steering 
wheel for normal operation and noise.
If the oil level abruptly goes up, bleed the air 
from the system again. A.

If the air bleeding is not properly performed, 
the life span of the power steering pump may 
be shortened. -

Oil Pump Pressure Check ▶ 
Check the oil pump pressure to locate any defect 
in oil pump.
Before checking the pressure, check the oil 
level and belt tension. Prepare the empty 
container to collect the spilled oil during the 
service.
Unscrew the pressure line fitting in power 
steering pump.
Install the pressure gauge between the 
power steering pump and the power steering 
oil pressure line.
Place the shift lever to neutral position. Apply 
the parking brake.
Open the valve in pressure gauge. Start the 
engine and let it run at idle speed.
Turn the steering wheel several times so that 
the oil temperature reaches to normal 
operating level. A.

Fully close the valve in pressure gauge and 
measure the oil pressure. F.
To prevent internal damage, do not close the 
gauge valve over 10 seconds.
Keep the oil temperature at proper range. -

 If the pump pressure is in specified range, the 
pump is normal. If not, replace the power
