NOTE:
Vibration while cruising may be caused by an unbalanced tire, improper tire inflation pressure, improper
wheel alignment, etc.
Symptom Possible cause Remedy

NOTE:
Vibration is caused by propeller
shaft during operation and is trans-
ferred to vehicle body. Generally
vibration increases in proportion to
vehicle speed.(1) Worn or damaged universal joint. Replace.
(2) Unbalanced propeller shaft due to bend or dent. Replace.
(3) Loose installation of propeller shaft. Retighten.
(4) Worn or damaged center bearing and damaged
center mounting rubber.Replace.
2. Tapping when starting and
noise while cruising, caused by
propeller shaft.(1) Worn or damaged universal joint. Replace.
(2) Worn spline of sleeve yoke. Replace.

ªT-typeº tire for temporary use is prepared as a
spare tire.
CAUTION:
IKeep the inflation pressure at 420 kPa (4.2

2, 60 psi) at all times.
IWhen the wear indicator appears on the
tread surface, replace the tire with a new one.
IDo not use a tire chain with the ªT-typeº tire.
Because of the smaller tire size, a tire chain will
not fit properly and will result in damage to the
vehicle and the tire.
IDo not drive at a speed greater than 80 km/h
(50 MPH).
IDrive as slowly as possible and avoid pass-
ing over bumps.
IReplace with a conventional tire as soon as
possible since this ªT-typeº tire is only for tem-
porary use.

5. Measure steering effort. Adjust or replace.
*1 If tires and/or rims are wider, the load to power steering system is the more. Accordingly, in a condition, for example
before fluid warms-up, relief valve may work before maximum turning angle. In this case, steering effort may be heavy.
When measured hydraulic pressure is normal, there is no abnormal thing.
*2 In cold weather, steering effort may be heavy due to increased flow resistance of cold fluid. After warming up engine,
turn steering wheel from stop to stop several times to warm up fluid. Then if steering effort reduces normally, there is no
abnormal thing.
*3 In cold weather or with insufficient warm-up of engine, steering effort may be heavy due to excessive drop of idling
when turning steering wheel. In this case, it is recommended to start the vehicle with increasing engine speed than usual.
Then if steering effort reduces normally, there is no abnormal thing.
