Steering gear box assembly
The steering gear box assembly consists of power cylinder and control valve. The power cylinder has a
cylinder, piston and piston rod. The control valve directs the oil to one end face of the piston to enhance
the steering force. There is a safety check valve which lets the driver steer manually when there is a
malfunction in the hydraulic circuit.
8. STEERING SYSTEM LAYOUT
1) HPS (Hydraulic Power Steering)
The hydraulic pump is a vane
type pump and consists of the
flow control valve and pressure
relief valve.The oil reservoir sends the oil to
the power steering pump and
receives the oil from the power
steering gear.There is a shock absorber which
is folded in the axial direction
when the vehicle is crashed and
a ignition switch assembly on
the column shaft.
The lower shaft minimizes the
torque change using a CV joint
which has constant angular
speed.

4) Basic Inspection
(1) Horn operation
Listen for the horn sound when pressing the horn pad on the steering wheel. -
(2) Brake operation
Check if there is any abnormal noise, unusually long braking distance, or uneven braking force. If the
brake warning lamp does not go out even after starting the engien or are flashing during driving,
have the brake system checked immediately.
Check the brake pipes and hoses for connection, oil leak, crack or interference after changing the
position of tires. When replacing the tires, check the brake disc for surface condition and wear.
Check the parking brake cable and brake operation. Shorten the checking interval if the parking
brake is used frequently. -
-
-
(3) Exhaust system
Be aware to any changes in sound or smell from the exhaust system. These may be caused by leak or
overheat. Have the exhaust system checked and repaired immediately.
Inspect the exhaust system including catalytic converter. Inspect all the components and body frame
near the exhaust system. -
-
(4) Tires
Unusual vibration of the steering wheel and seats or pulling to one side on the straight and level roads
may indicates the uneven tire inflation pressure or poor wheel balance. -
(5) Steering and suspension system
Inspect the front and rear suspension and the steering system for damage, looseness or missing
parts, signs of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering line and the hoses for
connection, leak, crack and chafing. Inspect the drive axle boot and seals for damage, tear or leak.
Replace or repair the system if necessary. -
(6) Engine oil
Check the oil level when the engine is still warm and add the specified engine oil if necessary. -
(7) Coolant
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir, coolant conditions (contamination, foreign material),
and hoses for damage and leak. Replace or add the Ssangyong genuine coolant, if needed. -
(8) Engine drive belt
Check all drive belts on the engine for wear, crack and looseness. Retighten or replace the belt, if
needed. -

4. LIMP HOME MODE
When the transaxle is defective ▶
In the event of a system fault, the TCU also provides for failure mode effect control (FMEC) to maintain
maximum functional operation of the transaxle.
In the event of a total loss of control or electrical power, the basic transaxle functions (Park, Reverse,
Neutral and Drive) are retained. The 4th and reverse gear ratios with the torque converter clutch in the
unlocked state are the retained gear states the hydraulic system supports without any electrical
assistance.
The TCU communicates with other vehicle electronic control modules by the controller area network
(CAN). If a major fault develops, the transaxle may automatically operate in a "limp home" (failure)
mode to enable the vehicle to be driven to an authorized dealer for repair.
The TCU also provides for transaxle diagnostics, which meet the requirements of OBD II legislation,
monitoring all components which may effect vehicle emissions. 1.

When the transaxle overheats ▶
Limp home mode may also be engaged if the battery charge falls below 8V.
If the transaxle overheats, the shift patterns will automatically change to enable improved transaxle
cooling.

Towing the automatic transaxle equipped vehicle ▶
Flat-bed equipment is the best method of moving a disabled vehicle to avoid any damages.
For AWD vehicle: The vehicle must be towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with
all the wheels off the ground.
For 2WD vehicles: It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the rear wheels on the ground without
dollies and the front wheels off the ground. When being towed by a commercial towtruck and wheel
dollies are not available, the front of the vehicle should be lifted, not the rear. -

3) Shift Map Selection
The driver can manually select between normal (S) and winter modes (W) via the mode switch.
Depending on the transaxle temperature, uphill and downhill grades and altitude, shift maps will be
selected by the TCU to suit the driving conditions. The following maps are available.
Standard (Normal) Mode ▶
Normal Mode is selected when the lever is in the D position with the mode switch in the normal (S)
position and the transaxle is within normal temperature ranges. Shift schedule points are optimised for
fuel efficiency and general driving conditions.
Uphill and Downhill Mode ▶
In this mode, depending on the load of the vehicle, adaptive shift maps are selected to progressively
adjust the shift points and torque converter lock points.
Altitude Mode ▶
Shift points are automatically adjusted at higher altitudes to compensate for changes in engine torque
where the torque produced by the engine is greatly reduced by the effects of reduced barometric
pressure and temperature.
Winter (W) Mode ▶
When winter mode is selected, starting in second gear is facilitated and the WINTER mode indicator
light is switched ON. To prevent wheel spin on slippery surfaces, the transmission will not allow first gear
unless manually overridden.
Warm up Schedule ▶

converter lock-up is increased to prevent heat generation by the torque converter.
Activation of the hot mode inhibits other transmission performance features including uphill and downhill
compensation and altitude compensation. Some degradation in shift feel may be experienced as the
torque converter is not unlocked during shifting.
Cruise Control Mode ▶
When cruise control is activated the engine ECU may request the transaxle to downshift under trailing
throttle conditions to increase engine braking.
Above 110℃the electrical radiator fans are switch ON
Above 130℃the engine torque will be reduced and the W light on the instrument cluster will flash
Above 200℃the transaxle will neutralise until the fluid tem
perature falls below 200°C as a final
protection.

1. OVERVIEW
The hydraulic clutch transmits the force required to operate the clutch pedal to the concentric slave
cylinder fitted to the clutch housing as a hydraulic pressure.
(The hydraulic pressure is transmitted in the following order: Clutch pedal - Clutch master cylinder -
Clutch pipe - Clutch damper - Clutch pipe and hose - Concentric slave cylinder - Pressure plate -
Flywheel.)
If a driver depress the clutch pedal, the hydraulic pressure is generated in the master cylinder. It is
transmitted to the concentric slave cylinder through the pipe, resulting in the cylinder being forced out. At
this time, the clutch disc is forced against the cylinder by pushing the cover. This, in turn, remove the
flywheel from the pressure plate. As a consequence, the power from the engine will be cut off and the
gear change can be carried out.

3. DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL (DMF)
The dual mass flywheel (DMF) is of having a mass divided into two halves.
While one mass is connected to the engine crankshaft, which is affected by the mass moment of inertia
of the engine, the other mass is affected by one of the transmission.
The divided dual masses are connected to the coil spring and damping system internally.
The DMF has the following benefits: ▶
Reducing fuel consumption by lowering engine speed
Reducing rattling noise and vehicle vibration in all driving ranges
Reducing synchronization wear
Facilitating gear change
Protecting power train parts by preventing excessive load from being delivered -

2. TORQUE STEER
Torque steer is a condition in which a vehicle pulls to either side because of an inequality of traction
between the left and right driving wheels when a large torque is applied to the front wheel of a FWD or
4WD.
Especially for a FWD vehicle, this mechanical condition can cause the steering effect because of the
output torque (rotational force) produced by the gyroscope.
This rotational force is due to the difference in distance between the left/right front wheels and the
transaxle which leads to the change of the shaft bending angle.
To prevent this, the intermediate shaft, called Intermediate shaft, is employed on each side so that the
bending angle and the length are kept constant.
A gyroscope is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, based on the principles of angular
momentum. In essence, a mechanical gyroscope is a spinning wheel or disk whose axle is free to
take any orientation. Although this orientation does not remain fixed, it changes in response to an
external torque much less and in a different direction than it would without the large angular
momentum associated with the disk's high rate of spin and moment of inertia. Since external torque
is minimized by mounting the device in gimbals, its orientation remains nearly fixed, regardless of
any motion of the platform on which it is mounted.

1. OVERVIEW
The AWD system in this vehicle is the electronic 4WD system and controls the traction to rear wheels
according to the driving conditions.
1) Driving Mode
(1) AUTO mode (Normal driving mode)
Normally the vehicle is in 2WD mode.
Automatically change to this mode when the vehicle needs higher traction.
(2) LOCK mode (when pressing 4WD LOCK switch)
This mode provides the highest traction. Use
this mode when driving on unpaved, rugged,
steep, sandy, wet or slippery roads.
In 4WD LOCK mode, if the rear wheel speed
exceeds 40 km/h, 4WD LOCK mode is
canceled and 4WD AUTO mode is activated
(Indicator OFF). If the speed is decreased
below 35 km/h, 4WD LOCK mode is resumed
(Indicator ON again). -
