BRAKE FLUID
PERIODICITY OF THE BREAK FLUID CHANGE
The manufacturing conception of the brakes equipping the Dacia vehicles, especially
the di sks brake type (F 54 inner empty pistons, low qua ntity of fluid in t he c ylinders,
sliding calipers avoiding existence of a fl uid reserve in the less cooled area of t he wheel)
enable t he m aximum re jection of fluid vapori zation ri sk, even in c ase of intensive using of
brakes (mountain are a). The current bra ke fluids are subject in all cases to a slight degradation during the fi rst
months of use by a slight humidity absorpt ion seri es (see the Vehicle Warra nty and
Maintenance Booklet, for brake fluid change)
LEVEL COMPLETION
The wear of brakes pads and shoes generate a gradually diminution of brake fluid level
in its reservoi r. It is useless t o compensate t his diminution, because the level will be re -
stored in the moment of next changing the brake pads and shoes. Obviously, in the mean-
time, the level of brake fl uid in re servoir must not go down bellow the minimal mark.
HOMOLOGATED BRAKE FLUIDS
The mixture i n t he bra king circuit of two non compatible brake fluids may leads to loss
important risks mainly due to gasket damage
In order t o avoid such risks, it is obligatory t o use bra ke fluids checked and approved by
our laboratories and which are accordi ng to Norm SAEJ 1703, DOT 4.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE FRONT AXLE ANGLES ON THE ROAD
BEHAVIOR (VEHICLE COMPORTMENT) AND ON TYRES WEAR
CAMBER ANGLE 0
0 +/- 30’
It is formed by the wheel plane with the vertical that crosses the wheel axis.
A difference higher that 1° between the two angles leads to :
- the deviation from the trajectory that must be adjusted by means of the steering wheel.
- abnormal wear of the tires and bearings.
The angle is not adjustable.
THE BALL JOINT ANGLE 12
045’ +/- 30’
It is formed in transversal plane between the axe connecting the attachment point of the
shock absorber with the ball joint center and the vert ical passing through the wheel axis.
The ba ll joint angle i s genera ting a ne gative offset, allowing the maintaining of the vehicle
route when the braking is unequal distributed. The angle is not adjustable.
THE CASTER ANGLE 2
030’
It is formed in longitudinal plane, between the axis connecting the attachment point of the shock
absorber with the suspension ball joint center and the vertical axis passing through the wheel axis. A difference higher than 1° between the two angles leads to : - the deviation from the trajectory that must be adjusted by means of the steering wheel.
- a normal wear of the tires.
The angle is not adjustable.
STEERING BOX POSITIONING
The steering box must be at a certain height from the attachment points of the steering auxiliary
connecting rod ball joints. The position of the steering box (choking) is influencing the variation
of the parallelism. The steering box is mounted in the position for which the variation is minimal.
The modification of t he para llelism between left side and right side leads to: - the deviation of the vehicle, in one sense, upon accelera ting;
- the deviation of the vehicle in the opposite side upon braking.
- the deviation of the tra jectory on the hilly ground;
- the premature wear of the tires.
The horizontally of the steering box is ensured by the producer.
PARALLELISM
( TOE-IN OR ANGULAR SPREAD ANGLE )
It is measured in horizontal plane as a differen ce between the front and rear part of the same axle wheels.
The wheels are divergent. The value of the opening is between 0 – 2 mm (1 +/- 1 m m).
ATTENTION:
A too much opening causes the wear of the tires on the inner pa rt of the camelback.
A too much closing causes the wear of the tires on the exterior part of the camelback.
The para llelism is adjustable by rotating the tie bar of the steering connecting rod.

CHARACTERISTICS
The front axle is composed of two joint half axles with independents wheels, designed for the
suspension type Mc.Pherson.
The joints of front half axle arm are done by means of an elastic bear ing (chassis side) and
by means of a suspension ball joint (wheel side)
The transmission of the motion to the wheels is done by means of two planetary axles, not
equal, with homocinetic tripod joints.
The wheel hub is assembled in the steering knuckle by means of a preset and sealed
bearing. The brake disks are aerated.
