Self-locking nuts
Self-locking nuts, i.e. nylon insert or deferred thread
nuts can be re-used providing resistance can be felt
when the locking portion of the nut passes over the
thread of the bolt or stud.
Where self-locking nuts have been removed, it is
advisable to replace them with new ones of the same
type.
Flexible Pipes and Hoses
General
When removing and installing flexible hydraulic pipes
and hoses, ensure that the following practices are
observed to ensure component serviceability.
lBefore removing any brake or power steering
hose, clean end fittings and area surrounding
them as thoroughly as possible.
lObtain appropriate plugs or caps before
detaching hose end fittings, so that the ports can
be immediately covered to prevent the ingress
of dirt.
lClean hose externally and blow through with
airline. Examine carefully for cracks, separation
of plies, security of end fittings and external
damage. Reject any faulty hoses.
lWhen refitting a hose, ensure that no
unnecessary bends are introduced, and that
hose is not twisted before or during tightening of
union nuts.
lFit a cap to seal a hydraulic union and a plug to
its socket after removal to prevent ingress of
dirt.
lAbsolute cleanliness must be observed with
hydraulic components at all times.
lAfter any work on hydraulic systems, carefully
inspect for leaks underneath the vehicle while a
second operator applies maximum brake
pressure to the brakes (engine running) and
operates the steering.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Hose clips
Markings (4) are usually provided on the hose to
indicate the correct clip position. If no markings are
provided, position the clip directly behind the
retaining lip at the end of the stub as shown. Worm
drive clips should be oriented with the crimped side
of the drive housing (5) facing towards the end of the
hose, or the hose may become pinched between the
clip and the stub pipe retaining lip. Worm drive clips
should be tightened to 3 Nm (2 lbf.ft) unless
otherwise stated. Ensure that hose clips do not foul
adjacent components.
Heat protection
Always ensure that heatshields and protective
sheathing are in good condition. Replace if damage
is evident. Particular care must be taken when
routing hoses close to hot engine components, such
as the exhaust manifold and the Exhaust Gas
Recirculation (EGR) pipe. Hoses will relax and
deflect slightly when hot; ensure this movement is
taken into account when routing and securing hoses.
Rolling Road Testing
General
IMPORTANT: Use a four wheel rolling road for
brake testing if possible.
WARNING: Do not attempt to test ABS function
on a rolling road.
Four wheel rolling road
Provided that front and rear rollers are rotating at
identical speeds and that normal workshop safety
standards are applied, there is no speed restriction
during testing except any that may apply to the tyres.
Before testing a vehicle with anti-lock brakes on a
four wheel rolling road, disconnect the ABS
modulator. The ABS function will not work, the ABS
warning light will illuminate. Normal braking will be
available.
Two wheel rolling road
Up to 03MY
ABS will not function on a two wheel rolling road. The
ABS light will illuminate during testing. Normal
braking will be available.
If brake testing on a two wheel rolling road is
necessary, the following precautions should be
taken:
lPropeller shaft to the rear axle is removed.
lNeutral selected in gearbox.
When checking brakes, run engine at idle speed to
maintain servo vacuum.
From 03MY
The differential lock must be engaged for two wheel
rolling road testing. It will also be necessary to
disconnect the propeller shaft from the transfer box
output shaft driving the axle whose wheels are NOT
on the rolling road. Additionally, the ETC system
must be deactivated by either removing the 10 amp
fuse (Number 28, labelled ABS in the main fuse box)
or disconnecting the ABS modulator pump. This
must be done with the ignition OFF ; a fault in the
ABS system may still be recorded.
WARNING; VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED
ON A ROLLING ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS
ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.

Electrical Precautions
General
The following guidelines are intended to ensure the
safety of the operator while preventing damage to the
electrical and electronic components fitted to the
vehicle. Where necessary, specific precautions are
detailed in the individual procedures of this manual.
Equipment
Prior to commencing any test procedure on the
vehicle ensure that the relevant test equipment is
working correctly and any harness or connectors are
in good condition. It is particularly important to check
the condition of the lead and plugs of mains operated
equipment.
Polarity
Never reverse connect the vehicle battery and
always ensure the correct polarity when connecting
test equipment.
High voltage circuits
Whenever disconnecting live ht circuits always use
insulated pliers and never allow the open end of the
ht lead to contact other components, particularly
ECU's. Exercise caution when measuring the voltage
on the coil terminals while the engine is running, high
voltage spikes can occur on these terminals.
Connectors and harnesses
The engine compartment of a vehicle is a particularly
hostile environment for electrical components and
connectors:
lAlways ensure electrically related items are dry
and oil free before disconnecting and
connecting test equipment.
lEnsure disconnected multiplugs and sensors
are protected from being contaminated with oil,
coolant or other solutions. Contamination could
impair performance or result in catastrophic
failure.
lNever force connectors apart using tools to
prise apart or by pulling on the wiring harness.
lAlways ensure locking tabs are disengaged
before disconnection, and match orientation to
enable correct reconnection.
lEnsure that any protection (covers, insulation
etc.) is replaced if disturbed.Having confirmed a component to be faulty:
lSwitch off the ignition and disconnect the
battery.
lRemove the component and support the
disconnected harness.
lWhen replacing the component keep oily hands
away from electrical connection areas and push
connectors home until any locking tabs fully
engage.
Battery disconnection
Before disconnecting the battery, disable the alarm
system and switch off all electrical equipment. If the
radio is to be serviced, ensure the security code has
been deactivated.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to electrical
components, always disconnect the battery
when working on the vehicle's electrical system.
The ground lead must be disconnected first and
reconnected last.
CAUTION: Always ensure that battery leads are
routed correctly and are not close to any
potential chafing points.
Battery charging
Only recharge the battery with it removed from the
vehicle. Always ensure any battery charging area is
well ventilated and that every precaution is taken to
avoid naked flames and sparks.
Ignition system safety precautions
The vehicle's ignition system produces high voltage
and the following precautions should be observed
before carrying out any work on the system.
WARNING: Before commencing work on an
ignition system, ensure all high tension
terminals, adapters and diagnostic equipment
are adequately insulated and shielded to prevent
accidental personal contacts and minimise the
risk of shock. Wearers of surgically implanted
pacemaker devices should not be in close
proximity of ignition circuits or diagnostic
equipment.
Disciplines
Switch off the ignition prior to making any connection
or disconnection in the system to prevent electrical
surges caused by disconnecting 'live' connections
damaging electronic components.
Ensure hands and work surfaces are clean and free
of grease, swarf, etc. Grease collects dirt which can
cause electrical tracking (short-circuits) or high-
resistance contacts.
When handling printed circuit boards, treat with care
and hold by the edges only; note that some electronic
components are susceptible to body static.

GENERAL INFORMATION
03-25
lComponents must not remain uncapped for
longer than 15 minutes. In the event of a delay,
the caps must be fitted.
lWhen disconnecting, immediately cap all air
conditioning pipes to prevent ingress of dirt and
moisture into the system.
lThe receiver/drier contains desiccant which
absorbs moisture. It must be positively sealed at
all times. A receiver/drier that has been left
uncapped must not be used, fit a new unit.
lThe receiver/drier should be the last component
connected to the system to ensure optimum
dehydration and maximum moisture protection
of the system.
lWhenever the refrigerant system is opened, the
receiver/drier must be renewed immediately
before evacuating and recharging the system.
lUse alcohol and a clean lint-free cloth to clean
dirty connections.
lEnsure that all new parts fitted are marked for
use with R134a.
When a major repair has been completed, a leak test
should be conducted; refer to the Air Conditioning
section of this manual for the correct procedure.
Refrigerant oil
Refrigerant oil easily absorbs water and must not
be stored for long periods. Do not pour unused
refrigerant oil back into the container. Always
use an approved refrigerant oil.

+ CAPACITIES, FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS, Lubrication.
When replacing components in the A/C system,
drain the refrigerant oil from the component being
replaced into a graduated container. On assembly,
add the quantity of refrigerant oil drained to the new
component.
Compressor
A new compressor is sealed and pressurised with
Nitrogen gas. When fitting a new compressor, slowly
release the sealing cap; gas pressure should be
heard to vent as the seal is broken.
CAUTION: A new compressor should always be
sealed and could be pressurised with nitrogen
gas. To avoid possible oil loss, release the
sealing cap(s) slowly. Do not remove the cap(s)
until immediately prior to connecting the air
conditioning pipes to the compressor.Rapid refrigerant discharge
If the air conditioning system is involved in accident
damage and the system is punctured, the refrigerant
will discharge rapidly. The rapid discharge of
refrigerant will also result in the loss of most of the oil
from the system. The compressor must be removed
and all the remaining oil in the compressor drained
and refilled as instructed in the air conditioning
section of this manual.
Precautions for refrigerant recovery, recycling
and recharging
When the air conditioning system is recharged, any
existing refrigerant is first recovered from the system
and recycled. The system is then charged with the
required weight of refrigerant and volume of
refrigerant oil.
WARNING: Refrigerant must always be recycled
before re-use to ensure that the purity of the
refrigerant is high enough for safe use in the air
conditioning system.
Recycling should always be carried out with
equipment which is design certified by
Underwriter Laboratory Inc. for compliance with
SAE J1991. Other equipment may not recycle
refrigerant to the required level of purity.
A R134a Refrigerant Recovery Recycling
Recharging Station must not be used with any
other type of refrigerant.
Refrigerant R134a from domestic and
commercial sources must not be used in motor
vehicle air conditioning systems.
CAUTION: The system must be evacuated
immediately before recharging commences.
Delay between evacuation and recharging is not
permitted.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Air Conditioning Compressor
Replacement
A new compressor is supplied filled with a full charge
(X cm3) of refrigerant oil.

+ CAPACITIES, FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS, Capacities.A calculated quantity of
oil must be drained from the new compressor before
fitting. To calculate the quantity of oil to be drained:
1Remove the drain plug from the old
compressor.
2Invert the compressor and gravity drain the oil
into a calibrated measuring cylinder. Rotate the
compressor clutch to ensure the compressor is
completely drained.
3Note the quantity of oil drained (Y cm
3).
4Calculate the quantity of oil to be drained from
the new compressor using the following
formula:
X cm
3 — (Y cm3 + 20 cm3) = Q cm3
5Remove the drain plug from the new
compressor and drain Q cm3 of oil. Fit and
tighten the compressor drain plug.
Body Repairs
General
Body shells are of welded construction and bolted to
a chassis frame. Front and rear sections of the shell
are designed as 'energy absorbing' zones. This
means they are designed to deform progressively
when subjected to impact in order to minimise the
likelihood of injury to vehicle occupants.
It is essential that design dimensions and strength
are restored in accident rectification. It is important
that neither structural weakness nor excessive local
stiffness are introduced into the vehicle during body
repair.
Repairs usually involve a combination of operations
ranging from straightening procedures to renewal of
individual panels or panel assemblies. The repairer
will determine the repair method and this decision will
take into account a balance of economics between
labour and material costs and the availability of repair
facilities in both equipment and skills. It may also
involve considerations of the vehicles' downtime,
replacement vehicle availability and repair turn-
around time.
It is expected that a repairer will select the best and
most economic repair method possible, making use
of the facilities available. The instructions given are
intended to assist a skilled body repairer by
expanding approved procedures for panel
replacement. The objective is to restore the vehicle
to a safe running condition by carrying out a repair
which is as close as is feasible to original standard.
The results should not advertise to the experienced
eye that the vehicle has been damaged, although the
repair might not be identical in all respects to the
original factory build. Commercial bodyshop repair
facilities cannot always duplicate methods of
construction used during production.
Operations covered in this Manual do not include
reference to testing the vehicle after repair. It is
essential that work is inspected and suspension
geometry checked after completion. Where
necessary a road test of the vehicle should be carried
out, particularly where safety-related items are
concerned.
Where major units have been disconnected or
removed it is necessary to ensure that fluid levels are
checked and topped up where necessary. It is also
necessary to ensure that the repaired vehicle is in a
roadworthy condition in respect of tyre pressures,
lights, washer fluid etc.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 12-1-21
Crankshaft
1Front end to crankshaft sprocket
2Oil supply cross-drillings
3Main journals
4Big-end journals
5Rear end to flywheel
The crankshaft is constructed from cast iron and is surface-hardened. The areas between the crankshaft journals and
the adjoining webs and balance weights are compressed using the cold roll process to form journal fillets.
Cross-drillings in the crankshaft between adjoining main and big-end bearings are used to divert lubrication oil to the
big-end bearings.
A torsional vibration damper is attached to the crankshaft pulley by three bolts.
The crankshaft is carried in six main bearings, with end-float being controlled by thrust washers positioned on both
sides of No. 3 main bearing.
Main bearings
There are six main bearings used to carry the crankshaft. Each of the bearing caps are of cast iron construction and
are attached to the cylinder block by two bolts.
The bearing shells are of the split cylindrical type. The upper half bearing shells are grooved to facilitate the supply of
lubrication oil to the bearings and fit into a recess in the underside of the cylinder block. The lower half bearing shells
are smooth and fit into the bearing caps.
Steel-backed thrust washers are included at each side of No. 3 main bearing to control crankshaft end-float. One side
of each of the thrust washers is grooved, the grooved side of each of the thrust washers is fitted facing outward from
No. 3 main bearing.
Cylinder head components
The cylinder head components are described below:
Cylinder head
The cylinder head is of aluminium construction. It is not possible to reface the cylinder head if it becomes worn or
damaged. An alloy camshaft carrier is bolted directly to the upper surface of the cylinder head. Two dowels are
included in the cylinder head upper face for correct location of the camshaft carrier.
The EU3 cylinder head has a single internal fuel rail for delivering fuel to the injectors and an external fuel pipe for
returning spill fuel back to the fuel connector block. Therefore, pre EU3 and EU3 model cylinder heads are not
interchangeable.
CAUTION: The cylinder head incorporates drillings for the fuel injection system, any contamination which
enters these drillings could cause engine running problems or injector failure. It is therefore, essential that
absolute cleanliness is maintained when carrying out work on the cylinder head.

1Fuel connector block assembly
2Outlet stub pipe
3Stub pipe – to fuel cooler
4Fuel temperature sensor
5Fuel pressure regulator
6Spill fuel return connection (EU3 models only)
A cast and machined alloy fuel connector block assembly is located at the rear RH side of the cylinder head, attached
by three flanged bolts. A metal gasket is used to seal the faces between the fuel connector block and the cylinder
head, which must be replaced every time the fuel connector block is removed.
CAUTION: The cylinder head incorporates drillings for the fuel injection system, any contamination which
enters these drillings could cause engine running problems or injector failure. It is therefore, essential that
absolute cleanliness is maintained when carrying out work on the cylinder head.
CAUTION: The valve heads, tips of the injectors and glow plugs protrude below the face of the cylinder head
and will be damaged if the cylinder head is stored face down.
Camshaft carrier
The cast aluminium alloy camshaft carrier is bolted to the cylinder head by thirteen screws. The camshaft carrier and
cylinder head assembly is attached to the cylinder block by twelve cylinder head retaining bolts which pass through
the camshaft carrier and the cylinder head to secure the assembly to the cylinder block.
The carrier is machined together with the cylinder head to form a matched pair for carrying the camshaft.
Non-return valve
A non-return valve is located at the front, bottom LH side of the cylinder head. The non-return valve prevents oil from
draining from the lash adjusters and is an integral component within the cylinder head and is non-serviceable.
