ILLUMINATION OPERATION BY LIGHTING SWITCH
When the lighting switch is in 1ST position, BCM detects the LIGHTING SWITCH 1ST POSITION (ON) by
BCM combination switch reading function. And then, BCM sends position light request signal (ON) through
CAN communication and MR output signal.
When receiving position light request signal (ON), IPDM E/R turns ON tail lamp relay in IPDM E/R. And then
supplies power

through IPDM E/R terminal 22

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within
the range shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE

Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.

If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following area.

Oil pan

Oil pan drain plug

Oil pressure switch

Oil filter

Intake valve timing control cover and intake valve timing control solenoid valve

Front cover

Mating surface between cylinder block and lower cylinder block

Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head

Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover

Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Engine oil pressure check should be in “ Parking position”.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove splash guard (RH).
3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch, and
remove oil pressure switch using deep socket (commercial ser-
vice tool).

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

PERIODIC MAINTENANCEPFP:00026
Periodic MaintenanceBLS0008Z
The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric con-
ditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent mainte-
nance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.

QR and VQ ENGINE
Abbreviations: I = Inspect and correct or replace as necessary, R = Replace
[ ] = At the specified distance only
NOTE:

(1) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, check valve clearance.

(2) Replace the drive belt if found damaged or if the auto tensioner reading (for QR20DE engine) reaches the maximum
limit.

(3) First replace at 100,000 km (60,000 miles)/60 months, then every 60,000 km (36,000 miles)/48 months. Perform “I”
(Checking the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture ratio if necessary) at the middle of replacement interval.

(4) Fuel filter is maintenance-free. For service procedures, refer to FL section.

(5) Perform only according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Conditions” for models without Euro-OBD system.

Maintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving
Conditions”. MAINTENANCE OPERATIONMAINTENANCE INTERVAL Reference page

ENGINE MAINTENANCE (QR20DE)

8. Warm up until opening thermostat and water control valve. Standard for warming-up time is approximately
10 minutes at 3,000 rpm.

Make sure thermostat opening condition by touching radiator hose (lower) to see a flow of warm water.
CAUTION:
Watch water temperature gauge so as not to overheat engine.
9. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C (122°F).

Cool down using fan to reduce the time.

If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
10. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
11. Repeat steps 3 through 9 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no longer
drops.
12. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.
13. Warm up engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running engine from idle up to 3,000
rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between “COOL” and “WARM”.

Sound may be noticeable at heater unit.
14. Repeat step 13 three times.
15. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating step 3 through 9 until engine coolant level no
longer drops.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Install reservoir tank if removed, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-81, "
CYLINDER
BLOCK" .
2. Remove air duct assembly. Refer to EM-17, "
AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .
3. Disconnect heater hose (left side of vehicle) at the position in
the figure.

Enhance heater hose as high as possible.
4. Fill radiator and reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.

When engine coolant overflows disconnected heater hose, connect heater hose, and continue filling the
engine coolant.
5. Install air duct assembly. Refer to EM-17, "
AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .
6. Run engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
7. Rev engine two or three times under no-load.
8. Stop engine and wait until it cools down.
9. Drain water from the system. Refer to MA-16, "
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT" .
10. Repeat steps 1 through 9 until clear water begins to drain from radiator.
Checking Cooling SystemBLS00093
WARNING:

Do not remove radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from radiator.Radiator drain plug:
