4. PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
ItemsSymptom
StartingWon’t startThe starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
Fires up and diesThere is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.
Hard startingEngine starts after cranking a while.
Idling
stabilityRough idle
HuntingEngine speed doesn’t remain constant and changes at idle.
Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
pointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body, etc.
This is called rough idle or hunting.
Incorrect idle speedThe engine doesn’t idle at the usual correct speed.
Engine stall
(Die out)The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is released, regardless of whether
the vehicles is moving or not.
Engine stall
(Pass out)The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed or while it is being
used.
DrivingHesitation, Sag“Hesitation” is the delay in response of the vehicle speed (engine speed) that
occurs when the accelerator is depressed in order to accelerate from the speed
at which the vehicle is now traveling, or a temporary drop in vehicle speed
(engine speed) during such acceleration. Serious hesitation is called “sag”.
(Refer to Figure 1.)
Poor accelerationPoor acceleration is inability to obtain an acceleration corresponding to the
degree of throttle opening, even though acceleration is smooth, or the inability
to reach maximum speed.
StumbleEngine speed increase is delayed when the accelerator pedal is initially
depressed for acceleration. (Refer to Figure 2.)
ShockThe feeling of a comparatively large impact or vibration when the engine is
accelerated or decelerated.
SurgeThis is repeated forward or rearward surging during constant speed travel or
during variable speed travel.
KnockingA sharp sound like a hammer striking the cylinder walls during driving and which
adversely affects driving.
StoppingRun on
(“Dieseling”)The condition in which the engine continues to run after the ignition switch is
turned to OFF. Also called “Dieseling”.

TROUBLESHOOTING
1. BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING CONDITIONS
Before starting the troubleshooting procedure, make sure that the following items have been checked
okay.
The correct steering wheel has been properly installed in the neutral position of the steering column
shaft.
Tire and wheel sizes are correct with correct specifications. Inflation pressure, balance, and wear
conditions are okay.
Wheel alignment is correct.
The engine, suspension, and other parts have not been remodeled so as to affect the AYC system.
2. DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
READING THE DIAGNOSIS CODE
Read the diagnosis code using AYC warning lamp.

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 (10C to 30C) to allow the
accumulator internal pressure to drop.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature is less than 10C 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 kgfm}
(6) Perform steps (2) through (5) for the right bleeder screw.
Note, however, that the steering wheel should be turned
counterclockwise.
