REAR FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY
4. Fit a dial gauge to the drive gear face to measure the backlash.
lIf outside the standard, change the thickness of the side bearing adjusting shims.
Side bearing adjusting shims
DRIVE GEAR BACK RUNOUT
1. Drain the oil.
2. Remove the rear cover.Refer toRFD-20, "
Removal of differen-
tial assembly".
3. Attach dummy cover set. Refer toRFD-15, "
HYPOID GEAR
BACKLASH".
4. Fit a dial gauge to the drive gear back face.
5. Rotate the drive gear to measure runout.
lIf outside the repair limit, check drive gear assembly condition;
foreign material may be caught between drive gear and differen-
tial case, or differential case or drive gear may be deformed, etc.
CAUTION:
Replace the drive gear and drive pinion gear as a set.
COMPANION FLANGE RUNOUT
1. Fit a dial gauge onto the companion flange face (inner side of
the propeller shaft mounting bolt holes).
2. Rotate the companion flange to check for runout.
3. Fit a test indicator to the inner side of the companion flange
(socket diameter).
4. Rotate the companion flange to check for runout.
5. If the runout value is outside the repair limit, follow the procedure
below to adjust.
a. Check for runout while changing the phase between companion flange and drive pinion gear by 90°step,
and search for the point where the runout is the minimum.
b. If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the phase has been changed, replace the companion
flange.
c. If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the companion flange has been replaced, possible cause
will be an assembly malfunction of the drive pinion gear and the electronically controlled coupling, mal-
functioning coupling bearing, or malfunctioning electronically controlled coupling.Backlash : 0.10 - 0.15 mm (0.0039 - 0.0059 in)
When the backlash is large:
Make the drive gear back adjusting shims thicker, and the drive gear front adjusting
shims thinner.
When the backlash is small:
Make the drive gear back adjusting shims thinner, and the drive gear front adjusting
shims thicker.

3. Check wheel bearing axial endplay.
4. Check strut operation.
5. Check each mounting point of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.
6. Check each link and arm for cracks, deformation, and other damage.
7. Check the vehicle posture.
CAMBER
Camber is preset at factory and cannot be adjusted.
lIf the camber is not within specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts.
TOE-IN
Measure toe-in using the following procedure.
lAlways perform following procedure on a flat surface.
lMake sure that no person is in front of the vehicle before push-
ing it.
1. Bounce rear of vehicle up and down to stabilize the posture.
2. Push the vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put a mark on base line of tread (rear side) of both tires at the
same height as hub center.this mark is a measuring points.

DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using “AIR BAG” warning lamp and/or CONSULT-II.
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system mal-
function through the operation of the “AIR BAG” warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the “AIR BAG” warning lamp and CONSULT-II are as follows:
NOTE:
Seat belt pre-tensioner malfunction is indicated by “AIR BAG” warning lamp.
HOW TO PERFORM TROUBLE DIAGNOSES FOR QUICK AND ACCURATE REPAIR
A good understanding of the malfunction conditions can make troubleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a malfunction. It is important to fully understand the symp-
toms or conditions for a customer complaint.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Operation procedure
1. After turning ignition switch OFF, connect CONSULT-II connec-
tor to data link connector on vehicle.
2. Start engine and drive at approx. 30 km/h(19MPH) for approx. 1
minute.
3. Stop vehicle. With engine at idle, touch "START", "ALL MODE
4WD", and "SELF-DIAG RESULTS" on CONSULT-II screen in
this order.
CAUTION:
"ALL MODE 4WD" may not be displayed on the system
selection screen in the following case: When "START" was
touched just after engine is started or ignition switch is
turned to ON. In this case, repeat procedure from step 1.
4. DTC RESULT is displayed. (If necessary, touch "PRINT" to print self-diagnosis result.)
lIf "NO DTC IS DETECTED FURTHER TESTING MAY BE REQUIRED" is displayed. check 4WD warn-
ing lamp.
5. Check the malfunctioning part indicated by the chart to repair or replace.
6. Start engine and drive at approx. 30km/h(19MPH) for approx. 1minule.
CAUTION:
lCheck again to make sure that there is NO FAILURE on other parts.
lIf wheel sensor [Short-Circuit] is detected, 4WD warning lamp does not turn off until following
conditions: Vehicle is driven at approx. 30km/h(19MPH) for approx. 1minute, even in normal
conditions.
7. Turn OFF ignition switch to prepare for erasing memory.
8. Start engine. Touch "START," "ALL MODE 4WD," "SELF-DIAG RESULTS," and "ERASE" on CONSULT-II
screen in this order to erase fault memory.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
WHILE DRIVING, 4WD WARNING LAMP FLASHES SLOWLY. (WHEN IT CONTINUES TO ILLU-
MINATE UNTIL ENGINE TURNS OFF.)
1. Check using the data monitor function of the CONSULT-II.
lPerform inspection with the data monitor function of the CONSULT-II.
lCheck if the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR is 8 mm (0.31 in) or more.
lStop the engine. Restart the engine and drive the vehicle at 20 km/h (12 MPH) or faster for approxi-
mately 200 seconds. Confirm the 4WD warning lamp flashes slowly.
(Check if the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR is 8 mm (0.31 in) or more.)
When the tire size is normal, the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR will change from 8 mm
(0.31 in) or more to 0 to 4 mm (0 to 0.16 in) (normal condition) after the vehicle is driven 20 km/h (12
MPH) or faster for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Tire inspection
lInspection of tire pressure
lWear condition
lCheck size of the front and rear tires. (No excessive difference should be observed.)
VEHICLE DOES NOT ENTER 4WD MODE EVEN THOUGH 4WD WARNING LAMP IS OFF.
1. Check using the data monitor function of the CONSULT-II.
Perform inspection by the data monitor function of the CONSULT-II.
–Check if the vehicle operation changes to 2WD, AUTO, and LOCK modes.
–Check current supplied to the 4WD solenoid valve in AUTO mode.
2. Check using the active test function of the CONSULT-II.
Using active test mode of CONSULT-II, supply current to the 4WD solenoid valve and check that the mon-
itor current becomes close to this supply current.
lThe 4WDcontrol unit is normal when the difference between 4WD solenoid valve current and the monitor
current is within±10%.
It is necessary to inspect the electronically controlled coupling assembly.
