Front Drive Halfshafts
Inspection and Verification
NOTE:New front wheel drive halfshafts should not
be installed unless disassembly and inspection
reveals unusual wear.
1. Inspect front wheel driveshaft joint boots for evidence of cracks, tears or splits.
NOTE: While inspecting the front wheel driveshaft
CV joint boots, watch for indentations (dimples) in
the boot convolutions. If an indentation is observed,
it must be removed.
2. Inspect the underbody for any indication of grease splatter in the vicinity of the front wheel
driveshaft CV joint boots outboard and inboard
locations, which is an indication of front wheel
driveshaft CV joint boot and/or front wheel
driveshaft CV joint boot clamp damage. 3. Inspect for inboard CV joint stub shaft pilot
bearing housing seal leakage at the front wheel
driveshaft CV joint.
4. Make sure front axle wheel hub retainer is the correct prevailing torque type.
5. The silicone front wheel driveshaft CV joint boot will sweat during operation, causing a light film
of grease to show on the outside of the front
wheel driveshaft CV joint boot. This condition
is normal.
NOTE: Halfshafts are not balanced and do not
contribute to rotational vibration.
6. If the concerns remain after the inspection, determine the symptoms and go to the Symptom
Chart. For additional Noise, Vibration and
Harshness (NVH). REFER to Section 100-04
[Noise, Vibration and Harshness] .

too close to the fluid level indicator assembly,
or float assembly damage.
Bypass Condition Test
1. Check the fluid in the brake master cylinderreservoir. Fill the brake master cylinder reservoir
if low or empty.
2. Observe the fluid level in the brake master cylinder reservoir. If after several brake
applications, the fluid level remains the same,
measure the wheel turning torque required to
rotate the wheels with the brakes applied as
follows:
Place the transaxle in the NEUTRAL position.
Raise and support the vehicle. REFER to: (100-02
Jacking and Lifting) Jacking (Description and Operation),
Lifting (Description and Operation).
Apply the brakes with a minimum of 445 N (100
lb) and hold for approximately 15 seconds. With
the brakes still applied, exert a torque on the front
wheels of 10.1 Nm (75 lb ft). If either wheel rotates,
install a new brake master cylinder.
REFER to: Brake Master Cylinder - 2.5L Duratec
(147kW/200PS) - VI5 (206-06 Hydraulic Brake
Actuation, Removal and Installation).
Non-Pressure Leaks
Any empty brake master cylinder reservoir
condition may be caused by two types of
non-pressure external leaks.
Type 1: An external leak may occur at the brake
master cylinder reservoir cap because of incorrect
positioning of the gasket and cap. Reposition the
cap and gasket.
Type 2: An external leak may occur at the brake
master cylinder reservoir mounting seals. Service
such a leak by installing new seals.

Testing the brakes on a roller dynamometer
- 4X4 vehicles only
On 4X4 vehicles a brake test on a roller
dynamometer must only be performed under the
following conditions.
• The brake test must not exceed a duration of 1 minute.
• Ignition key in position 0.
• The roller speed must not exceed 5 km/h.
ABS/ESP module or hydraulic control
unit (HCU)
E96821

23
The ABS/ESP module or the hydraulic control unit
(HCU) is mounted on the left-hand side of the
bulkhead. Diagnosis is performed with the aid of
a diagnostic tester.
The following components can be replaced
separately or as a unit:
• Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU)
• ABS/ESP module
• Mounting Bracket
The following must be taken into account when
removing/installing or renewing the ABS/ESP
module or the hydraulic control unit (HCU):
• Only hydraulic control units (HCU) which are pre-filled with brake fluid are available for
service operations.
• After replacing the HCU it is not necessary to bleed the system via the diagnostic tester.
• After replacing the brake fluid it is also only necessary to perform standard bleeding.
• The blanking caps/plugs must not be removed until the brake tubes are ready to be connected. • If accidentally dropped or knocked install a new
hydraulic control unit (HCU) and module
assembly.
• When the ABS/ESP module is removed/installed or replaced, it is necessary to reconfigure the
ABS/ESP module with the aid of the diagnostic
tester once all of the installation work has been
performed.
Refer to: Module Configuration (418-01 Module
Configuration, General Procedures).
Combined yaw rate sensor and lateral
acceleration sensor / longitudinal
acceleration sensor
E96822
The sensor is attached to the floor crossmember
at the front right. For vehicles with 4x4 drive, a
longitudinal acceleration sensor is also integrated
in the same housing.
The following must be taken into account when
removing/installing or replacing the combined yaw
rate sensor and lateral/longitudinal acceleration
sensor:
• Ensure the correct installation position of the yaw rate sensor and lateral/longitudinal
acceleration sensor.

Engine – System Operation and Component Description
System Operation
The variable camshaft timing occurs
electro-hydraulically and individually for both
camshafts.
The camshaft adjusters work according to the vane
cell principle and have an adjustment range of 52°
crank angle on the intake side and 47° crank angle
on the exhaust side. On starting the engine and
during idling, both camshafts are mechanically
locked in their starting positions. The exhaust
camshaft is in the early position and the intake
camshaft is in the late position. The camshaftadjuster on the exhaust side has a torsion spring
which compensates the camshaft drive torque.
This ensures that the assembly can return to the
starting position under all operating conditions and
when the engine is turned off.
Internal exhaust gas recirculation can be realized
through continuous adjustment of the timings. This
results in better fuel consumption and more
favorable combustion temperatures which produce
less pollutants. This means that pollutant level IV
can be adhered to with a 3-way catalytic converter.
The variable timings also make it possible to
optimize performance with wide open throttle.
