WARNING!
The normal operating temperature of the exhaust system is very high. Therefore, never work around or attempt
to service any part of the exhaust system until it has cooled. Special care should be taken when working near
the catalytic converter. The temperature of the converter rises to a high level after a short period of engine oper-
ating time.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Raise and support the vehicle.
3. Remove the catalytic converter mounting nuts (1)and gaskets.
(Tighten: Catalytic converter mounting nuts to 50
N·m)
4. Remove the catalytic converter.
5. Clean the ends of the pipes to ensure proper mat- ing of all parts. Discard broken or worn isolators,
rusted or overused clamps, supports, and attaching
parts.
6. Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Do not remove the strut rod nut while the strut assembly is installed in the vehicle, or before the coil spring is
compressed with a spring compressor. The spring is held under high pressure and must be compressed before
the strut rod nut can be removed.
CAUTION:
At no time when servicing a vehicle can a sheet metal screw, bolt, or other metal fastener be
installed in the shock tower to replace the original plastic clamp. It may come in contact with the
strut or coil spring.
CAUTION:
The wheel bearing will be damaged if the vehicle is rolled with the axle shaft hub nut loose.
Operation
The front suspension utilizes a MacPherson strut system. This suspension system incorporates a strut assembly that
takes the place of the upper arm and ball joint. The strut performs the function of a shock absorber and is encom-
passed by a coil spring.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Front Coil Spring
Description
A coil-over front strut assembly supports each front coil spring. The top of the strut assembly mounts to the strut
tower.
Operation
Coil springs are designed to store energy and subsequently release it and to absorb shock and maintain a force
between contacting surfaces. Coil springs are rated for specific vehicle applications.
NOTE :
Each component is serviced by removing the strut assembly from the vehicle and disassembling it. Coil springs are
rated separately for each corner or side of the vehicle depending on optional equipment and type of vehicle service.
If a coil spring requires replacement, be sure that it is replaced with a spring meeting the correct load rating for the
vehicle and its specific options.
Removal & Installation
CAUTION:
At no time when servicing a vehicle can a sheet metal screw, bolt or other metal fastener be
installed into the strut tower to take the place of an original plastic clamp. Also, do not drill holes
into the front strut tower for the installation of any metal fasteners into the strut tower area indi-
cated.
1. Raise and support the vehicle.
2. Remove the front strut assembly (See Front Strut Removal & Installation in Section 10 Suspension).
WARNING!
Do not remove the strut rod nut before the coil spring is properly compressed. The coil spring is held under
pressure. The coil spring must be compressed, removing spring tension from the upper mount and bearing,
before the strut rod nut is removed.
3. Position the strut assembly in the strut coil springcompressor following the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions and set the lower and upper hooks of the
compressor on the coil spring.
4. Compress the coil spring until all coil spring tension is removed from the upper mount and bearing.
5. Once the spring is sufficiently compressed, install the strut nut wrench on the strut rod nut.
6. Install a deep socket on the end of the strut rod.

Removal & Installation
WARNING!
Before removing the sub-frame assembly, properly support the engine and transaxle assembly.
1. Raise and support the vehicle.
2. Remove the wheel mounting nuts and the wheel assembly. (Tighten: Wheel mounting nuts to 110 N·m)
3. Support the engine using an engine support fixture or suitable jack.
4. Remove the engine undercover and splash shields.
5. Remove the intermediate shaft lock bolt (1) that connects to the steering gear.

Front Strut
Disassemble
NOTE :
The strut assembly must be removed from the vehicle for it to be disassembled and assembled. For the disassembly
and assembly of the strut assembly, use a strut spring compressor, or the equivalent, to compress the coil spring.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions closely.1. Remove the front strut assembly (See Front Strut Removal & Installation in Section 10 Suspension).
2. If both struts are being serviced at the same time, mark both the coil springs and strut assemblies according to which side of the vehicle the strut is being removed from.
WARNING!
Do not remove the strut rod nut before the coil spring is properly compressed. The coil spring is held under
pressure. The coil spring must be compressed, removing spring tension from the upper mount and bearing,
before the strut rod nut is removed.
3. If the spring compressor fixture is unable to attachto a workbench, attach the spring compressor to a
bench vise.
4. Position the strut assembly in the strut coil spring compressor following the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions and set the lower and upper hooks of the
compressor on the coil spring.
5. Loosen the spring compressor, then attach the clamps between the top and bottom of the spring.
6. Compress the coil spring until all coil spring tension is removed from the upper mount and bearing.
CAUTION:
Never use impact or high speed tools to remove the strut rod nut. Damage to the strut internal
bearings can occur.

Only frame contact or wheel lift hoisting equipment can be used on this vehicle. It cannot be hoisted using
equipment designed to lift a vehicle by the rear axle. If this type of hoisting equipment is used, damage to rear
suspension components will occur.
CAUTION:
If a rear suspension component becomes bent, damaged or fails, no attempt should be made to
straighten or repair it. Always replace it with a new component.
Operation
The rear suspension utilizes an independent multi-link arm design. This suspension system allows the wheels to
react to road imperfections independent of each other. This independent action offers improved isolation from the
effects of jounce and rebound.
