8. If the measured value exceeds the standard value, replace
the hydraulic unit.
9. Connect the hydraulic unit and the hydraulic unit hose
assembly, and connect the torque transfer differential and
hydraulic unit hose assembly, tighten the flare nut in
specified torque.
Tightening torque: 34±5 N·m (Thread is not lubricated)
26±4 N·m (Thread is lubricated)
10. Supply the specified fluid up to the MAX level of the
oil reservoir, and bleed.
Specified fluid: ATF-SP III
Quantity: 1 L
WHEEL BEARING AXIAL PLAY CHECK
1. Remove the brake caliper and brake disc.
2. Check the bearing’s axial play.
Place a dial gauge against the hub surface; then move
the hub in the axial direction and check whether or not
there is axial play.
Limit: 0.05 mm
3. If the axial play exceeds the limit, the castle nut should
be tightened to the specified torque 225±25 N·m and
check the axial play again.
4. Replace the rear hub assembly if an adjustment cannot
be made to within the limit.
WHEEL BEARING ROTARY-SLIDING
RESISTANCE CHECK
1. Remove the brake caliper and brake disc.
2. After turning the hub a few times to seat the bearing,
wind a rope around the hub bolt and turn the hub by
pulling at a 90_angle with a spring balance. Measure
to determine whether or not the rotary-sliding resistance
of the rear hub is at the limit value.
Limit: 22 N or less

BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM -On-vehicle Service35A-14
BRAKE DISC THICKNESS CHECK
Caution: Brembo disc brake
Take care not to contact the parts or tools to the caliper
because the paint of caliper will be scratched. And if
there is brake fluid on the caliper, wipe out quickly.
1. Using a micrometer, measure disc thickness at eight
positions, approximately 45°apart and 10 mm in from
the outer edge of the disc.
Brake disc thickness
Standard value: 24.0 mm , 20.0 mm
Limit: 22.4 mm , 18.4 mm
Brake disc thickness
Standard value:32.0 mm , 22.0 mm
Limit: 29.8 mm , 20.4 mm
Thickness variation (at least 8 positions)
The difference between any thickness measurements
should not be more than 0.015 mm.
2. If the disc is beyond the limits for thickness, remove it
and install a new one. If thickness variation exceeds the
specification, replace the brake disc or grind it with
on-the-car type brake lathe (“MAD, DL-8700PF” or
equivalent).
Caution
(1) After a new brake disc is installed, always grind
the brake disc with on-the-car type brake lathe.If
this step is not carried out, the brake disc run-out
exceeds the specified value, resulting in judder.
(2) When the on-the-car type lathe is used, first install
M12 flat washer on the stud bolt in the brake disc
side according to the figure, and then install the
adapter. If the adapter is installed with M12 flat
washer not seated, the brake disc rotor may be
deformed, resulting in inaccurate grinding.
(3) Grind the brake disc with all wheel nuts diagonally
and equally tightened to the specified torque 100
N·m. When all numbers of wheel nuts are not used,
or the tightening torque is excessive or not equal,
the brake disc rotor or drum may be deformed,
resulting in judder.
BRAKE DISC RUN-OUT CHECK AND
CORRECTION
Caution: Brembo disc brake
Take care not to contact the parts or tools to the caliper
because the paint of caliper will be scratched. And if
there is brake fluid on the caliper, wipe out quickly.
1. Remove the brake assembly, and then hold it with wire.
2. Temporarily install the disc with the hub nut.

3. Place a dial gauge approximately 5 mm from the outer
circumference of the brake disc, and measure the run-out
of the disc.
Limit: 0.03 mm or less
4. If the brake disc run-out exceeds the limit, correct it as
follows:
(1) Chalk phase marks on the wheel stud and the brake
disc, which run-out is excessive.
(2) Remove the brake disc. Then place a dial gauge
as shown, and measure the wheel bearing axial play
by pushing and pulling the wheel hub.
Limit: 0.06 mm , 0.05 mm
(3) If the wheel bearing axial play exceeds the limit,
disassemble the hub and knuckle assembly to check
each part.
(4) If the wheel bearing axial play does not exceed the
limit, dephase the brake disc and secure it. Then
recheck the brake disc run-out.
5. If the run-out cannot be corrected by changing the phase
of the brake disc, replace the brake disc or grind it with
the on-the-car type brake lathe ( “MAD, DL-8700PF” or
equivalent).
Caution
(1) After a new brake disc is installed, always grind
the brake disc with on-the-car type brake lathe.
If this step is not carried out, the brake disc run-out
exceeds the specified value, resulting in judder.
(2) When the on-the-car type lathe is used, first install
M12 flat washer on the stud bolt in the brake disc
side according to the figure, and then install the
adapter. If the adapter is installed with M12 flat
washer not seated, the brake disc rotor may be
deformed, resulting in inaccurate grinding.
(3) Grind the brake disc with all wheel nuts diagonally
and equally tightened to the specified torque 100
N·m. When all numbers of wheel nuts are not used,
or the tightening torque is excessive or not equal,
the brake disc rotor or drum may be deformed,
resulting in judder.

PARKING BRAKES -On-Vehicle Service36-3
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE CHECK
AND ADJUSTMENT
1. Pull the parking brake lever with a force of approx. 200
N and count the number of notches.
Standard value: 5 - 7 notches
2. If the parking brake lever stroke is not the standard value,
adjust as described below.
(1) Remove the floor console assembly. (Refer to
GROUP52A)
(2) Loosen the adjusting nut to move it to the cable rod
end so that the cable will be free.
(3) Depress the brake pedal repeatedly until the lever
has no change in its stroke.
NOTE
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly adjusts shoe
clearance correctly.
(4) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking brake lever
stroke to the standard value. After adjusting, check
that there is no space between the adjusting nut and
the parking brake lever. Check that the adjusting nut is
secured with the nut holder.
Caution
If the parking brake lever stroke is below the
standard value and the braking is too firm, the
rear brakes may drag.
(5) After adjusting the parking brake lever stroke, jack
up the rear end of the vehicle, and then release the
parking brake and turn the rear wheels to check that
the rear brakes are not dragging.
PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CHECK
1. Remove the floor console assembly. (Refer to
GROUP52A)
2. Remove the front seat assembly(RH). (Refer to
GROUP52A)
3. Check for continuity between the parking brake switch
terminal and the switch mounting bolt.
