and rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear,
discs for run out and wear, and
calipers for fluid leakage.

Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks, dete-
rioration, or damage. Start the
engine and listen carefully for any
exhaust gas leakage. Tighten con-
nections or replace parts as neces-
sary.
Suspension mounting bolts
Check the suspension connections
for looseness or damage. Retighten
to the specified torque.
Steering gear box, linkage &

With the vehicle stopped and engine
off, check for excessive free-play in
the steering wheel.

age. Check the dust boots and ball
joints for deterioration, cracks, or
damage. Replace any damaged
parts.

Taking care of leather seats
Vacuum the seat periodically to
remove dust and sand on the seat.
It will prevent abrasion or damage of
the leather and maintain its quality.
Wipe the natural leather seat cover often with dry or soft cloth.
Sufficient use of a leather protec- tive may prevent abrasion of the
cover and helps maintain the color.

nations do not smear.
