WARNING
In order to eliminate any risk of damaging the
rotary switch under the steering wheel, observe
the recommendations below:
!Before the steering column and the steering
rack are uncoupled, the steering wheel MUST
be immobilised with the wheels straight for the
duration of the operation using a "steering
wheel locking tool".
!If there is any doubt regarding the correct
alignment of the rotary switch, the steering
wheel must be removed so that the alignment
procedure described in the "AIRBAG" section
can be applied.
REMINDER: in this case, only qualified
personnel who have received training may carry
out the operation.

– the earth strap on the bulkhead,
– the mountings of the air conditioning hoses (if
fitted) on the compressor and the condenser.
NOTE: it is essential to insert plugs in the pipes and on
the compressor to prevent the moisture entering the
circuit.
Remove the upper radiator mountings and attach the
cooling system to the engine.
Fit the engine retaining tool Mot. 1453 ensuring that
the strap is correctly positioned.
Remove the suspended engine mounting cover.Insert a wooden block between the gearbox and the
sub-frame.
Remove the nut (1), then tap it with a copper hammer
to release the suspended engine mounting stud.
Fit tool Mot. 1159 as shown below.

Fit tool Mot. 1040-01 under the engine sub-frame.
Lower the lift until the tool touches the ground.
Remove the sub-frame mounting bolts and take out
the engine and transmission assembly by lifting the
body.
When starting to lift the body, ensure that the catalytic
converter is removed and extract the radiator from its
upper mountings (then place it on the sub-frame).
NOTE: for any operation requiring the engine, gearbox
and sub-frame assembly to be separated, take care to
mark the position of tool Mot. 1159 on the sub-frame.REFITTING
The alignment of the sub-frame with the body will be
made easier by positioning two threaded rods
Mot. 1233-01 in the two front mountings of the sub-
frame on the body.
When lowering the body onto the engine - gearbox
assembly, ensure that the catalytic converter is
refitted.
Tighten the sub-frame mounting bolts to a torque of:
– 6.2 daN.m at the front,
–10.5 daN.m at the rear.
See section 19 "Suspended engine mounting" for
the tightening torques for the engine and gearbox
assembly mountings.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Refit the heat shields correctly.
Apply Loctite FRENBLOC to the caliper mounting
bolts and tighten them to the recommended torque.
Press the brake pedal several times to bring the
pistons into contact with the brake pads.
Fill:
– the engine and gearbox with oil (if necessary),
– the cooling circuit and bleed it (see section 19
"Filling - bleeding").
Fill the refrigerant circuit using the filling equipment (if
fitted).

– the low pressure pump connector,
– the bolts (1) and (2),
– the alternator mounting bolts and remove the
alternator, then remove the bolts (3).
Loosen the exhaust pipe clamp mounting.
Remove:
– the catalytic converter mountings on the pre-catalytic
converter,
– the pre-catalytic converter stay (1),
– the mounting (6),
– the oil supply pipe at (7) and remove towards the
bulkhead,
– the pre-catalytic converter mountings to the turbo,
– the catalytic converter removing the engine towards
the cooling system,
– the oil return pipe (8),– the bolt (9) and loosen the other mounting bolts on
the lower timing cover without removing them,
– cylinder head bolts.
Release the cylinder head by setting aside the lower
part of the camshaft housing, without causing the
cylinder head to turn, since this is centred by the two
dowels.

REFITTING (special notes)
Fit the cylinder head gasket. This is centred by two
dowels.
Bring the pistons to mid-stroke position to prevent
them from coming into contact with the valves as the
cylinder head is tightened.
Centre the cylinder head on the dowels.
Lubricate the threads and under the heads of the
mounting bolts.
Tighten the cylinder head using an angular tightening
wrench (see section '07 "Tightening the cylinder
head").
Tightening procedure for the automatic tensioner
mounting
Offer up the three touching bolts then apply a torque of
2.5 daN.m respecting the order shown below.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Refit the timing belt, (see procedure described in
section 11 "Timing belt").
Fill and bleed the cooling circuit, (see section 19
"Filling and Bleeding").
To reprime the diesel circuit, consult section 13, "Fuel
filter".

Coolant temperature management
CCTM
This system allows the engine cooling fan to be
controlled by the injection computer. It consists of a
single coolant temperature sensor serving injection,
the engine cooling fan, the temperature indicator and
the instrument panel temperature warning light.OPERATION
The injection computer controls, as a function of the
coolant temperature:
– the injection system,
– the engine cooling fan relays:
!the fan is kept at a low speed if the coolant
temperature exceeds 99 ˚C and stops when the
temperature drops below 96 ˚C,
!the fan is kept at a high speed if the coolant
temperature exceeds 102 ˚C and stops when the
temperature drops below 99 ˚C,
!the fan can be controlled by the air conditioning.
For vehicles without air conditioning, only the low
speed engine cooling fan is operational.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT
(shared with the injection fault warning light)
The warning light is controlled by the computer.
It is illuminated when the temperature exceeds 120 ˚C.
16179R1
244 Coolant temperature sensor (injection and
coolant temperature indication on the
instrument panel).
Three track sensor, two tracks for coolant
temperature information and one track for
indication on the instrument panel.

Filling and bleeding

119 COOLING SYSTEM
Filling and bleeding
There is no heater matrix water control valve.
Water flow is continuous in the heater matrix, which
contributes to the cooling of the engine.
FILLING
It is essential to open the bleed screw on the
cylinder head coolant pipe housing outlet.
Fill the circuit through the expansion bottle opening.
Close the bleed screw as soon as the fluid runs out in
a continuous jet.
Start the engine (2500 rpm).
Adjust the level by overflow for a period of about
4 minutes.
Tighten the expansion bottle cap.
BLEEDING
Let the engine run for 20 minutes at 2500 rpm, until
the engine cooling fan operates (time required for
automatic degassing).
Check the liquid level is at the "Maximum" marker.
DO NOT OPEN THE BLEED SCREW(S) WITH THE
ENGINE RUNNING.
REFIT THE EXPANSION BOTTLE CAP WHILE THE
ENGINE IS WARM.
