3-2 TORQUE TRANSFER MECHANISM
(1) Remove the drain plug to discharge the gear oil.
(2) Fit the drain plug and tighten it to the specified torque.
(3) Remove the filler plug and add the specified gear oil
up to the bottom end of the filler plug hole.
Specified gear oil:
MITSUBISHI GENUINE DIA QUEEN SUPER AYC
FLUID
Quantity used: 0.70
0
0.05dm3{0.700
0.05}
(4) Fit the filler plug and tighten it to the specified torque.
4. FLUID LEVEL CHECK
(1) Remove the maintenance lid located in the luggage
compartment.
(2) If the vehicle has been run, leave it for 5 min. or more
in an ordinary temperature (10
C to 30
C) to allow the
accumulator internal pressure to drop.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature is less than 10
C or less,
allow more time to leave the vehicle to stand idle.
(3) Check that the fluid level in the oil reservoir is in the
range between MAX and MIN.
(4) If the fluid level is lower than MIN, add the specified
fluid.
Specified fluid: MITSUBISHI DIA QUEEN ATF-SPII
(5) Reinstall the maintenance lid.
5. BLEEDING
(1) Lift up the vehicle.
(2) Remove the cap of the left bleeder screw on the torque
transfer differential and connect a vinyl hose.
(3) Gradually turn the steering wheel clockwise from the
straight-ahead position. At this time, loosen the left bleeder
screw and check that fluid is discharged with air.
(4) After air has been completely discharged, tighten the
bleeder screw.
Caution
While the system is being bled of air, add fluid as
necessary to ensure that it is left in the oil reservoir
during the entire procedure.
(5) Repeat steps (3) and (4) two to three times until no air
bubbles are recognized in the fluid that comes out. Then,
tighten the bleeder screw to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 9 Nm {0.9 kgf
m}
(6) Perform steps (2) through (5) for the right bleeder screw.
Note, however, that the steering wheel should be turned
counterclockwise.

(7) After the system has been completely bled of air, check
for the fluid level.
Caution
If the system is not completely bled of air, the hydraulic
unit could generate noise, degrading pump durability.
6. DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER OIL SEAL
REPLACEMENT
6-1 DIFFERENTIAL
(1) Remove the drive shaft. (Refer to p. 27-36.)
(2) Remove the oil seal from the differential carrier.
(3) Using the special tool, drive a new oil seal all the way
into position.
(4) Coat the oil seal lips and the drive shaft surface in contact
with the oil seal with multi-purpose grease.
(5) Replace the drive shaft circlip with a new one and mount
the drive shaft to the differential carrier. (Refer to P.27-36.)
(6) Check for correct wheel alignment. (Refer to GROUP
34 – On-vehicle Service.)

(1) Remove the drive shaft. (Refer to p. 27-36.)
(2) Remove the oil seal from the differential carrier.
(3) Using the special tool, drive a new oil seal all the way
into position.
(4) Coat the oil seal lips and the drive shaft surface in contact
with the oil seal with the specified grease.
Specified grease: Vaseline

7. SPEED SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE
MEASUREMENT ABS>
(1) Lift up the vehicle and release the parking brake.
(2) Disconnect the AYC-ECU harness connector and take
measurements on the harness side connector.
Caution
Insert the probe from the harness side with the double
lock of the connector unlocked. Inserting it to the
terminal side could result in poor contact.
(3) Turn the wheel to be tested at about 1/2 to one
revolution/sec. and check for the output voltage using
a circuit tester (AC mV range) or oscilloscope.
Terminal nos.
Front LHFront RHRear LHRear RH

Output voltage:
When circuit tester is used: 70 mV or more
When oscilloscope is used: 200 mVp-p or more
(4) If the output voltage is lower than the above value, it
is probably attributable to the following faults. Check or
replace the speed sensor as necessary.
Excessive clearance between the pole piece and rotor
of the speed sensor
Defective speed sensor
Waveform Check Using Oscilloscope
Check the harness and connector of the speed sensor for
connection. Then, use an oscilloscope to check for output
voltage waveform of each speed sensor as follows.
Start the engine and monitor the sensor by turning the wheel;
for a driving wheel, let it turn by shifting into the 1st gear
and for a driven wheel turn it manually at a constant speed.
NOTE
(1) Waveform may be observed by actually running the
vehicle.
(2) The output voltage is low when the wheel speed remains
low and builds up as the wheel speed increases.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINT
ADRIVE SHAFT NUT INSTALLATION
(1) Install the washer on the drive shaft in the direction shown
on the left.
(2) Using the special tool, tighten the drive shaft nut to the
specified torque.
Caution
Before torquing the drive shaft nut to specification,
do not apply vehicle weight to the wheel bearing.
(3) If, at this time, the split pin holes are not aligned, tighten
the nut further (within 255 Nm {26.0 kgf
m}), insert the
split pin in the first matching holes, and bend it securely.
INSPECTION
1. REAR WHEEL BEARING ROTATION STARTING
TORQUE
(1) Install the special tool to the rear hub assembly and tighten
it to the specified torque.
(2) Using the special tool, measure the wheel bearing rotation
starting torque.
Limit: 1.0 Nm {10.5 kgf
cm}
(3) The wheel bearing starting torque should be within the
limit and the hub should be free of binding or rough motion
when turned.
2. WHEEL BEARING AXIAL PLAY CHECK
(1) Check the wheel bearing for axial play.
Limit: 0.05 mm
(2) If the specified torquing range (196 to 255 Nm {20.0
to 26.0 kgf
m}) does not bring the wheel bearing axial
play into the limit, replace the rear hub assembly.
