INFORMATION VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN)
The Vehicle Identification Number and the
recommended maximum vehicle weights are stamped
on a plate riveted to the brake pedal box in the engine
compartment. The VIN is also stamped on a plate
visible through the LH side of the windscreen, see
J6088.
A.Type approval
B.Identification
C.Maximum permitted laden weight for vehicle
D.Maximum vehicle and trailer weight
E.Maximum road weight-front axle
F.Maximum road weight-rear axle
The number is also stamped on the RH side of the
chassis to the rear of the front lashing eye, see J6089.
The Vehicle Identification Number identifies the
manufacturer, model range, wheel base, body type,
engine, steering, transmission, model year and place
of manufacture. The following example shows the
coding process.

Manual.
5.Check condition of synchromesh unit, springs
and cones for distortion and wear. Also check
dog teeth for damage and cone mating surface
on gear for signs of overheating.
6.Check condition of all gearbox components,
ensure clearances and adjustments are correct
on reassembly.
Symptom - Noise from gearbox in neutral, which
changes tone or becomes worse when clutch is
depressed,
See CLUTCH, Fault diagnosis, Clutch
Noise - Mechanical Faults
.
Symptom - Noise from gearbox in neutral, which
disappears when clutch is depressed.
1.Check lubricant specification and level, if low do
not top up at this stage.
