PERIODIC MAINTENANCE SERVICES
3) Check the pedal stroke.
While the engine is idling, depress the brake pedal
with a 500 N (51 kgf, 112 lb) load and measure the
distance between the brake pedal and steering
wheel. With the brake pedal released, measure the
distance between pedal and steering wheel again.
The difference between the two measured values
must be less than specified value. If the measured
value is more than specification, there is possibility
of entering air in hydraulic unit.
Brake pedal stroke A:
115 mm (4.5 in)/ 500 N (51 kgf, 112 kg) or less
4) Check to see if air is in the hydraulic brake line
by the feel of pedal operation. If air appears to exist
in the line, bleed it from the system.
5) Check for even operation of all brakes, using a
brake tester or by driving the vehicle for a short dis-
tance on a straight road.
3. BRAKE SERVO SYSTEM
1) With the engine off, depress the brake pedal
several times applying the same pedal force. Make
sure the travel distance should not change.
2) With the brake pedal depressed, start the en-
gine. Make sure the pedal should move slightly to-
ward the floor.
3) With the brake pedal depressed, stop the engine
and keep the pedal depressed for 30 seconds.
Make sure the pedal height should not change.
4) A check valve is incorporated into the vacuum
hose part. Disconnect the vacuum hose to inspect
function of check valve.
Make sure air flows from the booster end to engine
end but does not flow in the opposite direction in
the check valve.
5) Check the vacuum hose for cracks or other dam-
age.
NOTE:
When installing the vacuum hose on the engine
and brake booster, do not use soapy water or lubri-
cating oil on their connections.
6) Check the vacuum hose to make sure it is tightly
secured.

Suspension
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE SERVICES
4. WHEEL ALIGNMENT OF FRONT SUS-
PENSION
1) Check the alignment of front suspension to en-
sure that following items conform to standard val-
ues.
•Toe-in
•Camber
•Caster
•Steering angle
2) When the caster angle does not conform to ref-
erence obviously, visually inspect the following
components and replace deformed parts.
•Suspension components [Strut assembly, cross-
member, front arm, etc.]
•Parts connecting suspension and body
3) When the toe-in and camber are out of standard
value, adjust them so that they conform to standard
value.
4) When the right-and-left turning angles of tire are
out of standard, adjust to standard value.
5. WHEEL ALIGNMENT OF REAR SUS-
PENSION
1) Check the alignment of rear suspension to en-
sure that following items are within standard val-
ues.
•Toe-in
•Camber
•Thrust angle
2) When the camber angle does not conform to
standard value, visually inspect the following com-
ponents. If the deformation is observed, replace the
damaged parts.
•Suspension components [Shock absorber, rear
upper arm, front lateral link, rear lateral link, rear
trailing link, sub frame]
•Parts connecting suspension and body
3) When the toe-in and thrust angle are out of stan-
dard value, adjust them so that they conform to
standard value.
6. OIL LEAKAGE OF STRUT AND SHOCK
ABSORBER
Visually inspect the front strut and rear shock ab-
sorber for oil leakage. Replace the front strut and
rear shock absorber if oil leaks excessively.
7. TIGHTNESS OF BOLTS AND NUTS
Check the bolts and nuts for looseness. Retighten
the bolts and nuts to specified torque. If the self-
locking nuts and bolts are removed, replace them
with new ones.
•Front suspension
•Rear suspension
8. DAMAGE TO SUSPENSION PARTS
Check the following parts and the fastening portion
of the vehicle body for deformation or excessive
rusting which impairs the suspension. If necessary,
replace the damaged parts with new ones. If minor
rust formation, pitting, etc. are noted, remove the
rust and take rust prevention measure.
•Front suspension
•Front arm
•Crossmember
•Strut
•Rear suspension
•Upper arm
•Front lateral link
•Rear lateral link
•Rear trailing link
•Rear sub frame
•Shock absorber
•In the area where salt is sprayed to melt snow on
a road in winter, check suspension parts for dam-
age caused by rust every 12 months after lapse of
60 months. Take rust prevention measures as re-
quired.
