The
following explanations will help isolate the source of vibration.
Torque Sensitive
This

means that the condition can be impr
oved or made worse by accelerating, dece lerating, coasting, maintaining a steady
vehicle speed, or applying engine torque.
Ve
hicle Speed Sensitive
This means th
at the vibration al
ways occurs at the same vehicle speed and is not affected by engine torque, engine speed
or gear selection.
Engine Speed Sensit
ive
This means th
at the vibration
occurs at varying vehicle spee ds when a different gear is selected. It can sometimes be
isolated by increasing or decreasing engine speed with the tran smission in neutral or by stall testing with the transmission in
gear. If the condition is engine speed sensitive, the cause is probably not related to tires.
If the road test indicates that there is tire wine, but no shake or vibration, the noise originates with the contact between th e
tire and the road surface.
A thumping noise usually means that the tire is flat or has soft spots making a noise as they slap the roadway. Tire whine
can be distinguished from axle no ise, as tire whine remains the same over a range of speeds.

iagnosis and Testing
Principles of Operations
The brake system operates by transferring effort applied to th e brake pedal, by the driver to the brakes at each wheel.
The braking effort is distributed to each wheel, using a hydraulic system. The system is assisted using a vacuum brake
booster that reduces pedal effort for a given hydraulic pressure. The parking brake operates on the rear wheels and is
applied using a hand operated control.
I
nspection and Verification
•
NOTE: Prior to carrying out any diagno
sis, make sure that the brake system warning indicator is functional.
Visually examine the front and rear tire and wheel assemblies for damage such as un even wear patterns, tread worn out or
sidewall damage. Verify the tires are th e same size, type and, where possible, same manufacture. Replace the damaged
wheel or excessively worn tire. For a dditional information, refer toSection 204
-0
4 Wheels and Tires
.
W
heels and tires must be cleared of an
y foreign matter and tire pressures ad justed to the correct specification.
If the tires exhibit uneven wear or feathering, the cause must be corrected. Check the steering and suspension components
for damage or wear and, if ne cessary, check and adjust front wheel alignment. For additional information, refer toSection

Road Test


V
isual Inspection Chart
Carr

y out a road test to compare actual vehicle braking performance with the
performance standards expected by the
driver. The ability of the test driver to make valid compar isons and detect performance deficiencies will depend on
experience.
The driver should have a thorough knowledge of brake system operation and accepted general performance guidelines to
make good comparisons and de tect performance concerns.
An experienced brake technician will always establish a route that will be used for all br ake diagnosis road tests. The roads
selected will be reasonably smooth and level. Gravel or bump y roads are not suitable because the surface does not allow the
tires to grip the road equally. Crowned roads should be avoide d because of the large amount of weight shifted to the low set
of wheels on this type of road. Once th e route is established and consistently used, the road surface variable can be
eliminated from the test results.
Before a road test, obtain a complete description of the customer concerns or suspec ted condition. From the description, the
technician's experience will allow the te chnician to match possible causes with symptoms. Certain components will be
tagged as possible suspects while others wi ll be eliminated by the evidence. More importantly, the customer description can
reveal unsafe conditions which should be ch ecked or corrected before the road test. The description will also help form the
basic approach to the road test by narrowing the concern to specific components, vehicle speed or conditions.
Begin the road test with a general brake performance check. Keeping the description of the concern in mind, test the brakes
at different vehicle speeds using both ligh t and heavy pedal pressure. To determine if the concern is in the front or rear
braking system, use the brake pe dal and then use the parking brake control. If the condition (pull, vibration, pulsation)

curs only with the parking brake, th
e concern is in the rear brake system.
If the concern becomes evident during this check, verify it fits the description given before the road test. If the concern is
not evident, attempt to duplicate the condition using the information from the description.
If a concern exists, use the Symptom Chart in order to isolate it to a specific sub-system and condition description. From
this description, a list of possible sources can be used to further narrow the cause to a specific component or condition.

NOTE: The following steps must be carried out with assistance.
1. 1. With the wheels in the straight ahead po sition, gently turn the steering wheel to the left and the right to check for
free play.
2. 2. Free play should be between 0 and 6 mm (0 and 0.24 in) at the steering wheel rim. If the free play exceeds this
limit, either the ball joints are worn, the lower steering column joints are worn or the backlash of the steering gear
is excessive.
CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to adjust the stee ring gear yoke. Failure to follow this instruction will result in the steering
gear warranty to become invalid.
3. 3. The backlash of the steering gear cannot be adjusted, in stall a new steering gear. For additional information,
REFER to Section 211

4. 4. Grasp the steering wheel

check for column bearing wear, steering wheel or steering column. For additional information,

Power Steering Fluid Condition Check
1.
1. R

2. 2. Check the power steering fluid system level.
3. 3. Observe the color and the odor. The color under normal circumstances should be dark reddish, not brown or
black.
4. 4. Allow the fluid to drip onto a faci al tissue and examine the stain.
5. 5. If evidence of solid material is foun d, the power steering fluid system should be drained for further inspection.
6. 6. If fluid contamination or steering co mponent failure is confirmed by the se diment in the power steering fluid
system, REFER to Steering Fault Diagnosis by Symptom Charts in this section.
