A waste gated turbocharger controls the boost to 2.2 bar. The compressed
air is cooled by the charge intercooler which is mounted upstream of the
turbocharger. The cooled air enters the inlet manifold’s plenum and it
enters the Cast iron cylinder head through the inlet valves having a 45-
degree angle. A boost pressure sensor is incorporated in the system to
measure the air boost.

To reduce the amount of NOx coming through the tail pipe the EGR
system adds exhaust gases into the fresh air that is going into the
combustion chamber. Since the exhaust gas is already burnt hence when
mixed with fresh air acts an inert gas. Thus when the exhaust gas mixed
with fresh air enters the combustion chamber, it performs a dual role.
The first role it does is that it reduces the amount of oxygen available for
combustion. The second role that it acts is as a heat absorbent/heat sink.
The net effect is that it reduces the combustion temperatures. This
results in lower amount of NOx being generated.

the air flow. Based on the above parameters the ECU operates a switch
that in turn controls the amount of vacuum going to the EGR valve. The
amount of vacuum applied controls the lift of the EGR valve.
EGR Valve
After cleaning the valve blow air from the bottom side of the valve and
check for any leakages.
EGR Cooler
EGR cooler is used in the Euro IV engine to cool the exhaust gases being
supplied to the engine.
EGR Pipe
Remove the EGR pipe and check for gas leakage, damages etc. Clean the
gasket seating area from any carbon deposits, burrs etc. Spray WD 40 rust
cleaning spray on the nut.
To check the pipe for any leakages, close one end of flange and from
other end blow air at 2 bars. Dip the pipe in water and observe if any
leakage is observed. If any leaks are observed then the pipe has to be
replaced. Do not attempt to weld/ seal the leakage joint
The solenoid switch does not require any maintenance. For any damage
replace the component.
Does not require any maintenance. However please check and confirm
that that the line from the modulator to air cleaner is clean and the hole
at the air cleaner hose end is not choked.

Certain amount of oil will be carried from the oil separator to the Air inlet
hose, which is normal. However if it is excessive please look for all the
causes mentioned in the high blow bye.
An external gear type pump sucks the oil through the strainer. The oil
pump is driven by the gear, which is mounted, on the crankshaft.
The oil pump delivers pressurized oil to the supply bore in the block. This

outer side of the element. The filtered oil goes through the centre of the
oil filter and is connected to the main oil gallery.
The main oil gallery runs to the front of the block where it is delivered to
the timing cover. From therein it takes a small loop in the timing cover
and again comes to the front of the block. Goes to another oil gallery. Oil
from this gallery supplies oil to the piston cooling jets
Oil from the main oil gallery goes to the crankshaft main journal and
camshaft, while from the rear end it is supplied to the alternator’s
vacuum pump. The oil supply for the turbocharger is from the oil filter
bracket.
The oil routed from the main oil gallery lubricates the timing gears and
the idler gear bush. Part of this oil gets sprayed from idler shaft hole. The
camshaft gear and the thrust plate are lubricated by engine oil routed
from the first camshaft bushing through the camshaft hole.
The oil from the First camshaft bush goes to the top of the cylinder and
enters an oil gallery, which extend up to 110 m from the front. Oil from
this gallery comes to the base of the first rocker shaft-mounting bracket.
The oil then enters the rocker shaft. Oil enters the rocker bushing at
through two holes facing the bottom half. At the same time it sprays from
the oil hole at the side of the rocker to lubricate the valve stem and the
surfaces over which the valve cap slides. The oil then returns to the sump
through the push rod holes in the cylinder head.
In both the oil cooler and oil filter, bypass valves are provided which
operate if the differential pressure exceeds 0.8 bar.

To reduce the amount of NOx coming through the tail pipe the EGR system
adds exhaust gases into the fresh air that is going into the combustion
chamber. Since the exhaust gas is already burnt hence when mixed with
fresh air acts an inert gas. Thus when the exhaust gas mixed with fresh air
enters the combustion chamber, it performs a dual role. The first role it does
is that it reduces the amount of oxygen available for combustion. The second
role that it acts is as a heat absorbent/heat sink.
The net effect is that it reduces the combustion temperatures. This results in
lower amount of NOx being generated.

is used as feedback signal to the ECU
EGR Valve –
Remove the EGR valve and check it valve-sticking, deposition of carbon etc.
If excess carbon deposits and sticky valve noticed then it should be cleaned
with a suitable solvent, so that the correct valve seat is ensured.
After cleaning the valve blow air from the bottom side of the valve and check
for any leakages.
EGR Pipe –
Remove the EGR pipe and check for gas leakage, damages etc. Clean the
gasket seating area from any carbon deposits, burrs etc. Spray WD 40 rust
cleaning spray on the nut.
To check the pipe for any leakages, close one end of flange and from other
end blow air at 2 bars. Dip the pipe in water and observe if any leakage is
observed. If any leaks are observed then the pipe has to be replaced. Do not
attempt to weld/ seal the leakage joint
The solenoid switch does not require any maintenance. For any damage
replace the component.
Does not require any maintenance. However please check and confirm that
that the line from the modulator to air cleaner is clean and the hole at the
air cleaner hose end is not choked.

Caution:
Ensure that the
tying clips are
not too tight &
pinching/
strangulating
the hoses.
The ventilation system is closed ventilation type. A hose connects the sump
assembly to the rocker cover. This hose balances the gas pressure in the
rocker cover and sump. The second hose goes from the rocker cover to the
oil separator. This hose also has a coarse mesh, which trap the bigger
particles.
The vapors with the oil particle enter the separator and due to the
centrifugal action are again separated. The vacuum after the air cleaner acts
on to the top of the diaphragm. The balance of the vacuum against the
spring and the vapor pressure controls the amount of the oil going to the
sump.
Certain amount of oil will be carried from the oil separator to the Air inlet
hose, which is normal. However if it is excessive please look for all the
causes mentioned in the high blow bye.

An external gear type pump sucks the oil through the strainer. The oil pump
is driven by the gear, which is mounted, on the crankshaft.
(Oil pump is identified by phosphating on cover plate.)
The oil pump delivers pressurized oil to the supply bore in the block. This oil
is delivered to the oil cooler and after getting cooled comes on the outer side
of the element. The filtered oil goes through the center of the oil filter and
is connected to the main oil gallery.
The main oil gallery runs to the front of the block where it is delivered to the
timing cover. From therein it takes a small loop in the timing cover and again
comes to the front of the block. Goes to another oil gallery. Oil from this
gallery supplies oil to the piston cooling jets
Oil from the main oil gallery goes to the crankshaft main journal and
camshaft, while from the rear end it is supplied to the alternator’s vacuum
pump. The oil supply for the turbocharger is from the oil filter bracket.
The oil routed from the main oil gallery lubricates the timing gears and the
idler gear bush. Part of this oil gets sprayed from idler shaft hole. The
camshaft gear and the thrust plate are lubricated by engine oil routed from
the first camshaft bushing through the camshaft hole.
The oil from the First camshaft bush goes to the top of the cylinder and
enters an oil gallery, which extend upto 110 mm from the front. Oil from this
gallery comes to the base of the first rocker shaft-mounting bracket. The oil
then enters the rocker shaft. Oil enters the rocker bushing at through two
holes facing the bottom half. At the same time it sprays from the oil hole at
the side of the rocker to lubricate the valve stem and the surfaces over
which the valve cap slides. The oil then returns to the sump through the push
rod holes in the cylinder head.
In both the oil cooler and oil filter, bypass valves are provided which operate
if the differential pressure exceeds 0.8 bar.

Inspection —
All the components should be inspected for wear. Any components, which are
beyond the wear limits, have to be replaced.
Over & above the wear limits: The following points also need to be ensured.
Piston: Check for scuffing/scoring on the skirt. A hard thick layer of carbon
lacquer on top land is acceptable. (If the thick layer is present on the piston
check that the liner does not have scuffing)
However scuffing of the top land and skirt giving indication of overheating
which is not acceptable.
Crankshaft: Check for scoring on the main as well as connecting rod journal.
If scoring is nominal and will not the increase the oil clearance then the
crankshaft can be used in, as it is condition.
Any deep groove in the rear end oil seal seating area is unacceptable. It will
result in oil leaks.
Main bearing and connecting rod bearing - If the scoring is nominal and oil
clearance is not affected, then it can be reused. However if flaking /peeling
of the bimetal in any particular zone only is present then use new shell. Look
for foreign particle embedded, deep scratches.
Dampener pulley rubber bonding- inspect for any gap between the rubber
ring and the outer/inner ring. Cracks on ring. Any deep groove in the front oil
seal seating area is unacceptable. It will lead to leakage’s.
If any deterioration of rubber or gap noticed between the ring and the rubber
replace the dampener pulley.

this bolt
If line boring of the crankshaft’s journal in the block is done to rectify any
ovality. Then please ensure that the material from block half is not
removed. In absence of taking this precaution the piston will move up. It
will change the compression, influencing the performance. In the worst
case the valves can hit the piston.
Assembly –
The additional points which are mentioned are necessary to give you the
engine life same as the original engine.
Bolts – The following bolts are recommend to be replace every time they are
opened-if the Maximum length exceeds the specification. However the
connecting rod bolt has to be changed every time without exception.
The bolts have to be tightened by base torque then 2 stage angular torque.
The angular torque’s ensures that the bolts are torqued up to yield point.
And the 2 stage ensures that the clamping load for each bolt is within a very
close tolerance.

fitment (connection from compressor to boost valve). Damage, cracks,
chips at ends, etc.
Check the operation of the waste gate valve by blowing compressed air
with 2.0 bar in the valve hose. The valve should open, pressing the
turbocharger stem and opening the exhaust valve (flap valve)
Check the oil separator system, in particular for any leak in vacuum
leak. As any vacuum leak will lead to a high-pressure build up and then
it will go through the intake system and give a signal of high blow by or
be confused with compressor oil leak.

The exhaust gases from the Turbine impinge on the turbine blade &
rotate the shaft. The compressor blades at the other end suck the air
from the air filter. After compression the temperature of the
compressed air increases thus reducing the air density. Hence if the air
is cooled and then the air density increases thus helping in getting
more power as well as improve emissions. The compressed air is sent to
the intercooler, which is mounted just below the radiator. Hence the
incoming ram air also cools the compressed air and gives it to the
intake manifold.
whole of the present document, are prohibited without the prior written consent of © 2009 Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd.
A flap valve is installed in the turbine housing just before the turbine
blade. Opening the valve allows the excess gases to bypass the turbine.
The flap movement is controlled by a push rod, which is controlled by a
spring-loaded diaphragm. At the other end of the diaphragm the
compressed air is sensed through a hose which is connected at a
tapping in the compressor housing.
The length of the pushrod, functioning of the diaphragm and the hose
connection are essential for the precise operation of the push rod. Any
air leak from the hose connecting the compressor housing to the waste
gate-controlling diaphragm will also affect the performance of the
turbocharger/ engine.
Inspection
9 Inspect the suction side (i.e. up to the air cleaner) for oil traces.
In a close crank case ventilation system it is normal to have oil in
this area. These oil particles are carried from blow bye of the
engine, which gets condensed from gas to oil. Look for any undue
gumming of oil, hard carbon particles in this area. If such an
observation is present then all the causes for excess blow symptoms
have to be checked and eliminated.
9 Inspect the compressor and turbine blades for any damage caused by
foreign object. The inspection can be done through the compressor
housing inlet and turbine housings outlet.
9 Inspect the blades outer edge and observe if any rubbing marks are
noticed on the housing.
9 Rotate the shaft wheel assembly by hand and check for freeness,
and any binding.
9 Push the shaft to side and rotate to check for wheel rub. It should
turn smoothly.
whole of the present document, are prohibited without the prior written consent of © 2009 Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd.
9 Lift both end of shaft up and down at the same time and feel for
excessive journal bearing clearance. If clearance is normal then very
little shaft movement will be detected.
If all the above checks are satisfactory then the turbocharger can
be reused.
Turbocharger Installation –
Check
The inlet connection & outlet exhaust connection to turbocharger for
foreign material, cracks, blockages, sand particles, loose nuts etc. This
check should be done more thoroughly if any damage has been noticed
in compressor or turbine blades as under normal operating conditions
the blades can damaged only if a foreign object hits them.
Check all the hoses and pipes from turbocharger outlet to intercooler
and intercooler to inlet manifold for crack, aging, leaks. Check the
hose clips for proper functioning. If in doubt – replace.

Installation –
i. Fill fresh clean oil from the oil supplies port and after that give the
shaft few rotations.
iii. Crank the engine till a steady stream of oil comes out through the
drainpipe. (CAUTION: Do not crank the engine for too long.
Excessive cranking will result in emptying of the pump cavity
causing the plunger to run dry.)
This will ensure that the oil supply line to Turbocharger is purged of
any air pocket.
After this fit the return line from turbocharger to sump, taking care to
avoid any kinks.
With engine running condition, check the air, exhaust and oil
connections for leaks.

The exhausts gases coming out of exhaust manifold impinge on the turbine
blade give the drive to turbine shaft. At the other end of the turbine shaft
the compressor is assembled. The whole assembly is supported on a floating
bush. The bush gets an oil supply directly from the engine and has oil film
between the shaft and bearing as well as the bush and the central housing.
The exhaust gases from the Turbine impinge on the turbine blade & rotate

A flap valve is installed in the turbine housing just before the turbine blade.
Opening the valve allows the excess gases to bypass the turbine. The flap
movement is controlled by a push rod, which is controlled by a spring-loaded
diaphragm. At the other end of the diaphragm the compressed air is sensed
through a hose which is connected at a tapping in the compressor housing.
The length of the pushrod, functioning of the diaphragm and the hose
connection are essential for the precise operation of the push rod. Any air
leak from the hose connecting the compressor housing to the waste gate-
controlling diaphragm will also affect the performance of the turbocharger/
engine.
1Inspection
9 Inspect the suction side (i.e. up to the air cleaner) for oil traces.
In a close crank case ventilation system it is normal to have oil in this
area. These oil particles are carried from blow bye of the engine, which
gets condensed from gas to oil. Look for any undue gumming of oil, hard
carbon particles in this area. If such an observation is present then all the
causes for excess blow symptoms have to be checked and eliminated.
9 Inspect the compressor and turbine blades for any damage caused by
foreign object. The inspection can be done through the compressor
housing inlet and turbine housings outlet.
9 Inspect the blades outer edge and observe if any rubbing marks are
noticed on the housing.
9 Rotate the shaft wheel assembly by hand and check for freeness, and any
binding.
9 Push the shaft to side and rotate to check for wheel rub. It should turn
smoothly.

9 Lift both end of shaft up and down at the same time and feel for
excessive journal bearing clearance. If clearance is normal then very
little shaft movement will be detected.
If all the above checks are satisfactory then the turbocharger can be
reused.
Turbocharger Installation
1 Check
The inlet connection & outlet exhaust connection to turbocharger for
foreign material, cracks, blockages, sand particles, loose nuts etc. This
check should be done more thoroughly if any damage has been noticed in
compressor or turbine blades. As under normal operating conditions the
blades can damaged only if a foreign object hits them.
Check all the hoses and pipes from turbocharger outlet to inercooler and
intercooler to inlet manifold for crack, aging, leaks. Check the hose clips for
proper functioning. If in doubt – replace.
The oil supply pipe should be checked carbon deposits, crack, distortions
etc. Clean the supply pipe before fitting.

Do not re use any of metallic gaskets even if they appear to be good. It will
lead to leakage & drop in the performance of the engine.
Installation –
i. Fill fresh clean oil from the oil supplies port and after that gives the
shaft few rotations.
ii. Fit the supply pipe.
iii. Without fitting the drain oil pipe, disconnect the FIP solenoid.
iv. Crank the engine till a steady stream of oil comes out through the
drainpipe. (CAUTION: Do not crank the engine for too long. Excessive
cranking will result in emptying of the pump cavity causing the plunger
to run dry.)
This will ensure that the oil supply line to Turbocharger is purged of any
air pocket.
After this fit the return line from turbocharger to sump, taking care to avoid
any kinks.
With engine running condition, check the air, exhaust and oil connections
for leaks.

Broadly speaking the water flows from the water pump to the Front
cover from the cover it goes to cylinder block and from the block to the
cylinder head and then to the bottom of thermostat. In case the
thermostat is closed, water goes through the bypass tube to water
pump. Once the thermostat opens the water goes to the radiator and
after getting cooled the water is again fed to the water pump. One pipe
goes from the thermostat housing to the heater core of HVAC unit and
then returns back.
The coolant from the outlet elbow of the cross flow type radiator enters
the inlet of the water pump. The centrifugal water pump delivers the
water to the front cover from there to the cylinder block.

At the same time a passage at the front end connect the inlet to another
gallery at the bottom of the liner. In between the top and lower passage
in the block the coolant flows between the block & liners due to the
thermos siphon effect. The water then goes to the cylinder head and
from there to bottom of the thermostat. One external pipe from the
back end of the block goes to the oil cooler. The return pipe form the oil
cooler is connected to the inlet of the water pump.
The radiator cap controls the system pressure to 0.9 bar. Once the
pressure exceeds 0.9 bar the cap lifts off the seat and the coolant is
allowed to escape into a no loss tank.
As the engine cools down the system pressure falls and vacuum is
formed .The vacuum valve in the radiator cap opens and allows the
water from the no loss tank to go back into the radiator. Thus the
system does not have any coolant loss during normal operation.

two sets of grooves. When this clearance is filled with viscous fluid a
shearing action caused by the speed differential between the two drive
components, transmit the torque to the fan. The fluid is thrown to the
outside of the unit by the centrifugal force from where it is recirculated
to the reservoir via the pump plate adjacent to the drive member.

If the engine sped is increased the amount of slip will also increase to
limit the maximum fan speed.
When the air temperature from the radiator drops sufficiently, the bi
metal coil closes the valve and prevents fluid entering the drive area.
The fluid that is in the drive area will gradually pump out into the
reservoir and the fan will return to an idle condition
This procedure will only give an indication that the fan is cutting in and
out, but will not be able to check the accuracy of the cut in
temperature.
Depending on the level of the test equipment there are several ways to
check the if the fan is working correctly.
1. Run the engine at idle without any load for approximately 3 minutes,
for example at 2000 rpm, observer the fan drive speed. In the
disengaged mode the fan speed will be approximately 800 rpm. By
running for 3 minutes it will ensure that the fan drive has pumped out
the silicone fluid into the reservoir and that the fan drive will be in
the cut out ( idle)
2. Either
(a) Blank the radiator by using a sheet of cardboard, which has a 15-
cm hole, cut out of in line with the center of the fan drive. This
will allow a flow of air on the bimetal coil and the cardboard will
allow the radiator to heat up quickly.
Keep a check on the vehicle temperature gauge and let the water
temperature rise to about 105°C. this will ensure that the fan drive
will engage
(b) Using a commercial hot air blower, which will provide a hot air
flow of at least 75°C, direct the air on to the centers of the fan drive
through the radiator. Keep the hot air on for several minutes. This
will cut the fan drive in, and the fan speed will increase. It is
important that only a powerful blower is used so that the hot air

should reach the fan drive after going the radiator at the correct
temperature.
3. Once the fan drive has become engaged by either method (a) or (b).
Check the fan speed with the non-contact tachometer. At 2000 rpm
input speed the fan speed should be 1800 rpm.
4. Use the same method explained in step 2, but this time listen to the
noise level generated by the fan. With the fan in the idle condition
the noise level should be very low, however when the fan speed
increases in the engaged mode there will be a significant roar from
the fan. This will clearly indicate if the fan drive is working.
If the fan drive fails to engage during these tests, there is something
wrong with the VFD (Viscous Fan Drive). The unit should be replaced.
While returning the failed unit (to Plant for vehicles under warranty)
take care to see that the unit is packed with the sensing coil facing
down and sent in the same way. If this is not observed then the silicone
fluid will flow down to bearing, damaging the bearing and also making it
impossible to do any investigation.

(a) Blank the radiator by using a sheet of cardboard, which has a 15-cm
hole, cut out of in line with the center of the fan drive. This will
allow a flow of air on the bimetal coil and the cardboard will allow
the radiator to heat up quickly.
Keep a check on the vehicle temperature gauge and let the water
temperature rise to about 105°C. this will ensure that the fan drive will

the radiator. Keep the hot air on for several minutes. This will cut the
fan drive in, and the fan speed will increase. It is important that only a
powerful blower is used so that the hot air should reach the fan drive
after going the radiator at the correct temperature.
3. Once the fan drive has become engaged by either method (a) or (b).
Check the fan speed with the non-contact tachometer. At 2000 rpm
input speed the fan speed should be 1800 rpm.
4. Use the same method explained in step 2, but this time listen to the
noise level generated by the fan. With the fan in the idle condition the
noise level should be very low, however when the fan speed increases in
the engaged mode there will be a significant roar from the fan. This will
clearly indicate if the fan drive is working.
If the fan drive fails to engage during these tests, there is something wrong
with the VFD (Viscous Fan Drive). The unit should be replaced.
While returning the failed unit (to Plant for vehicles under warranty) take
care to see that the unit is packed with the sensing coil facing down and
sent in the same way. If this is not observed then the silicone fluid will flow
down to bearing, damaging the bearing and also making it impossible to do
any investigation.

To ensure that FIP receives clean fuel all the times it is advisable that the
fuel filters are replaced at the specified intervals.
It should be noted that replacement of both the filters at the same time has
to be avoided.
It should be understood that when the filters get choked then the filtering
efficiency that is the size of particle they are able to stop improves.
However, if it gets fully choked then the flow of the fuel is very less and
inadequate at higher speed. Hence if only one filter is changed at a time
then the fuel flow is also adequate and maintains a higher filtering
efficiency. The working clearance of the FIP components are in order of few
microns, hence the importance of the above procedure is high.

The ECU monitors the air flow, coolant temperature, attitude, engine
speed, and accelerator pedal position. Based on the above parameters the
ECU operates a switch that in turn controls the amount of vacuum going to
the EGR valve. The amount of vacuum applied controls the lift of the EGR
valve. The lift of the EGR valve is sensed. This lift is used as feedback signal
to the ECU
The inputs of the engine speed (from the flywheel sensor); Throttle position
(from the potentiometer.) is fed in one map. Another map uses the throttle
position and correlate in terms of the acceleration. The third map uses the
water temperature. Another map uses the input from airflow sensor (HFM),
correlates with the load and decides the amount of EGR opening. The
inputs from tall these maps are added together to give an input to the EGR
pressure modulator.
At the same time it has a set point that if the water temperature is less
than 25 ° C or more than 95°C. Then the EGR will not be operated.
In the Euro IV engine the Exhaust gas being fed to the engine passes through
the EGR cooler so that the exhaust gases get cooled & in turn the NOx is
controlled in a more effective manner.

The EGR is controlled by the Engine ECU. The ECU is an electronic device.
Hence it is prone to get damaged if spikes are generated in the system.
♦ If any welding work is being carried out on the vehicle then the battery
terminals are removed.
♦ Similarly, the practices of shorting the battery to check the battery have
to be avoided. (It can cause a spike.).
EGR Valve –
Remove the EGR valve and check it valve-sticking, deposition of carbon etc.
If excess carbon deposits and sticky valve noticed then it should be cleaned
with a suitable solvent, so that the correct valve seat is ensured.
After cleaning the valve blow air from the bottom side of the valve and
check for any leakages.
To check for the functioning of the EGR valve apply vacuum on the vacuum
connection of the EGR valve. The lift of the valve at the required vacuum
should be achieved.
EGR Pipe –
Remove the EGR pipe and check for gas leakage, damages etc. Clean the
gasket seating area from any carbon deposits, burrs etc. Spray WD 40 rust
cleaning spray on the nut.
To check the pipe for any leakages, close one end of flange and from other
end blow air at two bars. Dip the pipe in water and observe if any leakage
is observed. If any leaks are observed then the pipe has to be replaced. Do
not attempt to weld/ seal the leakage joint

♦ If any welding work is being carried out on the vehicle then the battery
terminals are removed.
♦ Similarly, the practices of shorting the battery to check the battery have
to be avoided. (It can cause a spike.).
EGR Valve –
Remove the EGR valve and check it valve-sticking, deposition of carbon etc.
If excess carbon deposits and sticky valve noticed then it should be cleaned
with a suitable solvent, so that the correct valve seat is ensured.
After cleaning the valve blow air from the bottom side of the valve and
check for any leakages.

To check for the functioning of the EGR valve apply vacuum on the vacuum
connection of the EGR valve. The lift of the valve at the required vacuum
should be achieved.
EGR Pipe –
Remove the EGR pipe and check for gas leakage, damages etc. Clean the
gasket seating area from any carbon deposits, burrs etc. Spray WD 40 rust
cleaning spay on the nut.
To check the pipe for any leakage’s, close one end of flange and from other
end blow air at two bars. Dip the pipe in water and observe if any leakage is
observed. If any leaks are observed then the pipe has to be replaced. Do not
attempt to weld/ seal the leakage joint
The solenoid switch does not require any maintenance. For any damage
replace the component.
EGR ECU –
However, like any ECU care has to be taken that if any welding work is being
carried out on the vehicle then the battery terminals are removed.
Similarly, the practices of shorting the battery to check the battery have to
be avoided. (It can cause a spike.). The practice of changing battery with a
running engine is also not acceptable. Again, the resultant spike can damage
the controller beyond repairs

Description
The clutch disc is a single, dry type with cushion springs in the hub. The clutch disc’s
friction material is riveted to the hub.
The clutch cover is a diaphragm type with one-piece construction. A 240-mm clutch
disc is used.
In the engaged position (when the clutch pedal is not pressed), the diaphragm spring
of the clutch cover assembly holds the clutch pressure plate against the clutch disc.
This enables the engine torque to be transmitted to the input shaft of the gearbox,
without any slip / loss.
The clutch release bearing pushes the diaphragm spring center towards the flywheel.
The diaphragm spring pivots at the fulcrum, relieving the load on the clutch plate.
Steel spring straps riveted to the pressure plate cover pulls the pressure plate away
from the clutch disc. When the clamping load on the clutch plate is relieved it slides
on the splines of the input shaft away from the flywheel thus disengaging the engine
torque from the input shaft & enabling the gears to be changed.

Trouble Shooting –
Unless the cause of a clutch problem is extremely obvious, accurate problem diagnosis
will require a road test to confirm that the problem exists. To find out the actual root
cause of the problem the clutch will have to be dismantled and the failed parts
examined to determine the cause.
During road test, drive the vehicle in normal operating speeds. Shift the gears and
observe the clutch action. If chatter, grab, slip or improper release is experienced,
remove & inspect the parts. However if problem is noise or hard shift then the
problem may not be in clutch only but also the transmission or the driveline.
If the clutch slip is suspected then drive the vehicle in 1st or 2nd gear at the top speed
(corresponding to the gear). Keeping the accelerator fully pressed; slowly apply the
brake- with your left feet. If the engine stalls then the clutch is not slipping.
Fluid contamination is the most frequent cause of clutch malfunction. Oil, water on
the clutch contact surface will cause faulty operation viz. Slip, grab, and judder.
During inspection check if any parts in the clutch are coated with oil or water splash
from road.
Oil contamination indicates a leak at either rear main seal or transmission-input shaft.
The oil leaks from either of these areas will normally coat the housing interior or
clutch cover or flywheel. Heat buildup due to slippage between the clutch plate and
the flywheel or the pressure plate can result into the leaked oil literally getting
baked. Visually this will result in a glazed residue varying from amber to black.
Roads splash contamination will mean that the dirt water is entering the clutch
housing either due to lose bolt or torn rubber boot.
Clutch misalignment –
The clutch component i.e. the clutch plate, flywheel and the pressure plate have to
be aligned with the crankshaft and the transmission input shaft. Misalignment caused

Heat warpage.
Improper machining.
Incorrect bolt tightening
Foreign material on crankshaft flange or flywheel.
Improper seating on crankshaft.
A warped cover or diaphragm spring will result in clutch grab and / or incomplete
release of clutch plate.
If the clutch alignment tool is not used then the misalignment of the clutch plate can
cause distortion of the cover and also disc damage.
The cover can also get misaligned due to improper tightening of the cover onto the
flywheel. The only way to avoid is that the bolts must be tightened alternatively
(diagonal pattern) and evenly i.e. 2 to 3 thread a time only.

A noisy gearshift operation especially the 1st and 2nd gear can be due to clutch not
getting disengaged completely. To check it, jack up the rear axle. Lift the axle till
both the wheels are rotating freely.
Press the clutch pedal completely and start the engine, the wheels should not be
spinning. Now slowly release the pedal till it has moved about 10 mm, the wheel
should still not be spinning. If some spinning is noticed then it indicates improper lift
of the pressure plate. First check the bleeding and the pedal travel then check for the
pressure plate lift.
The clutch housing has to be aligned with the engine so that the input shaft is aligned
with the crankshaft. Absence of this alignment results in clutch noise, incomplete
release of the clutch plate. It can normally be judged by uneven wear of the finger
and pilot bearing. In severe case it can also damage the spline of the input shaft and
clutch hubs well as the clutch splines
To check the clutch housing misalignment bell housing run out will also need to be
checked.

Inspection:
All the components should be inspected for wear. Any components, which are beyond
the wear limits, have to be replaced.
Over & above the wear limits: The following points also need to be ensured.
To measure the run out; mount the base of the magnetic dial gauge on the block.
Locate the dial gauge’s needle on the outer surface of the flywheel.
If the flywheel has been removed for resurfacing or replacing the pilot bearing then
while fitting it back ensure that:
No dirt and grease present on the mounting face (it can cause cocking & run out)
Torque tightened as per sequence and also the angular tightening as per the
specification is done.
Absence of any of these requirements may result in bolt loosening causing flywheel
run out.
Check the clutch disc run out before fitting. It should be within the specifications. If it
is more than the specification- use a different clutch plate.
A warped cover or diaphragm spring will result in clutch grab and / or incomplete
release of clutch plate.
If the clutch alignment tool is not used then the misalignment of the clutch plate can
cause distortion of the cover and also disc damage.

clutch hubs well as the clutch splines
Before fitting the clutch housing ensure that no dirt, debris or foreign parts are
trapped between the mating surface of the transmission & the clutch housing.
Flywheel -
If the flywheel is found to be having minor scoring then it can be resurfaced. However
the maximum allowed cut is 0.076 mm. If scoring is deeper than 0.0076 than the
flywheel has to be changed. (Excessive material removal will cause the flywheel to
either crack/ warpage after installation/ drop in clamping load and will affect the
proper clutch release as the travel of release bearing gets affected.)
If the flywheel has been removed for resurfacing or replacing the pilot bearing then
while fitting it back ensure that:
No dirt and grease present on the mounting face (it can cause cocking & run out)
Torque tightened as per sequence and also the angular tightening as per the
specification is done.
Absence of any of these requirements may result in bolt loosening causing flywheel
run out.
Starter ring replacement: Unless the provision of properly heating & fitting is
available. It is not recommended to replace the starter ring. It is worthwhile to
replace the ring along with the flywheel.

It is a 5-speed gearbox. The 1st & 2nd gear is having double cone type synchronizer
while the 3rd, 4th & 5th are having strut type synchronization. The reverse gear is
sliding mesh.
The gear selection is by a direct shift lever operating a 3-rail system. The accidental
operation of two gears is avoided by an interlocking mechanism. To avoid vibrations
passing on to the shift lever; the shift lever is two-piece with rubber isolation provided
on to the top half.
The gearbox housing is 3 piece aluminum with an intermediate plate. A skid plate
protects the bottom of the gearbox. The Gearbox is mounted directly on the flywheel
through the integral clutch housing and supported at rear on the cross member. The
gearbox also has a gear neutral switch (GNS) which give signal to ECU when vehicle is
in neutral gear position.

When 4-wheel drive is selected, the automatic hub locks the axle shaft to
the wheel hub. This occurs when the vehicle is driven in either forward or
reverse direction. The hub unlocks when 2-wheel drive is selected, and the
vehicle is driven in the opposite direction for a few feet.
Construction –
The 4 Tanged washers are held in place on the Wheel Spindle. The cut-
outs on the drag sleeve (26) fit over the tangs on the washer, preventing
the drag sleeve from rotating. The brake band (24) fits over the serrated
portion of the drag sleeve. The tangs of the brake band are fitted through
the window in the steel inner cage (21). The plastic outer cage (20) fits
over the inner cage. Each tang of the brake band fits through each cutout
in the outer cage. The cam follower (19) is attached to the clutch gear
(15). The follower profile on the cam follower (A) ride against the cam
faces or ramps of the steel inner cage. The clutch gear slides on the splines
on the out side the hub sleeve (16). The axle shaft(C) is splined to the
inside of the hub sleeve. The large teeth on the outside of the clutch gear
can engage the teeth inside the outer clutch housing (9).The outer clutch
housing is bolted to the wheel hub. An End Cap (2) fits over the hub lock
assembly. The end cap contains a bearing assembly (6) that supports the
other end of the hub sleeve. The End Cap is fitted with an Aluminium
Decorative Plate(1) for better aesthetics.
The clutch gear and cam follower rotate in the opposite direction, back
down the cam face of the inner cage. Spring pressure forces the clutch
gear inward, unlocking the wheel hub from the axle shaft.
Operation –
Now, let’s see how the hub operates in detail. When 4-wheel drive is
engaged (and vehicle starts to move ), the axle shaft starts to turn the hub
sleeve (16), clutch gear (15) and cam follower (19). The steel inner cage
(21) and plastic outer cage (20) also start to turn. (Remember, the drag
sleeve (26) is fixed to the wheel spindle and doesn’t rotate) When the
inner cage window hits the first brake band tang (30) the band tightens up
on the drag sleeve. This stops the inner cage. The cam follower (19) is
forced up the ramp of the inner cage (21).

Now, let’s see how the hub operates in detail. When 4-wheel drive is
engaged (and vehicle starts to move), the axle shaft starts to turn the hub
sleeve (16), clutch gear (15) and cam follower (19). The steel inner cage
(21) and plastic outer cage (20) also start to turn. (Remember, the drag

inner cage window hits the first brake band tang (30) the band tightens up
on the drag sleeve. This stops the inner cage. The cam follower (19) is
forced up the ramp of the inner cage (21).
As the cam follower moves up the ramp of the inner cage, it is moved
outward along the hub sleeve (16), pushing the clutch gear (15) into
engagement with the outer clutch housing. The cam follower (19) also
pushes against the lugs of the outer cage (20). The outer cage tang
contacts the second brake band tang (30). This unlocks the brake band and
allows it to turn freely on the drag sleeve serration’s.
When 2-wheel drive is selected to disengage the hubs, and the vehicle is
driven in the opposite direction for a few feet, the rotating front wheel
turns the outer clutch housing, clutch gear (15) and cam follower (19) in
the opposite direction. The cam follower moves down the ramp of the
inner cage (20). The return spring (14) pushes the clutch gear (15) along
the hub sleeve (16) and out of engagement with the outer clutch housing.
Trouble shooting –
Lubrication –
• Remove drag sleeve assembly and keep aside, DO NOT lubricate drag
sleeve assembly as it is permanently lubricated with Darmex grease.
• Check the brake band and drag sleeve serration for presence of
appropriate quantity of grease and wear, in case of insufficient
grease, replace the drag sleeve.
• DO NOT remove the brake band as this could change the spring
tension and affect hub operation.
• All components except drag sleeve assembly and outer bearing race
assembly are lubricated by dipping them in automatic transmission
fluid. Allow excess fluid to drip off before assembling the hub.
• Lubricate the outer bearing race with light wheel bearing grease.
DO NOT use axle grease.
Removal –
1. Make sure that the snap ring and spacer is installed on the axle shaft.
2. Make sure that the slots on the Drag Sleeve are engaging with the 4-
tanged washer. Install the Hub Lock in the wheel hub.
3. Rotate the Hub Lock to match the threaded holes of the wheel hub.
Put 6 nos. bolts face to face.
4. Tighten 6 nos. bolts with the help of special Allen key to 5.5 to 6.5
kg-m torque using Torque Wrench.
5. Tight the end cap with the help of pin spanner.
Remove the end cap and bearing race spring. Remove the bearing inner
race and retainer.
Invert assembly vertically so the
drag sleeve comes up.
• After cleaning dry the parts with low pressure (20 psi maximum)
compressed air.
• Lubricate the bearings race with light wheel bearing grease and cam
& follower assembly with ATF oil. Protect lubricated parts from dust.
Inspection –
Assembly –
Install the outer bearing assembly, with the retainer and bearing facing the
interior of the hub and the cap facing out.
Install the assembly end cap with the bearing race spring.

Tightening Torques
Description
The function of the propeller shaft is to transmit power from one point
to another. The shaft is designed to transmit torque from transmission /
transfer case to the axle.
The propeller shaft is built with the yoke lugs in line with each other,
which is called phasing. This design produces the smoothest running
condition. An out of phase shaft can cause a vibration.
1. Locate the centre bearing assembly- keep the bolts loose in the slot
of the chassis.
2. Locate & tighten the propeller shaft flange at the gearbox end.
3. Tighten the centre bearings mounting bracket bolts.
4. Fit the rear propeller shaft.
Trouble shooting –
Tyres that are out of round or wheels that are out of balance cause a
low frequency vibration.
Brake drums that are unbalanced cause a harsh low frequency vibration.
Driveline vibrations can also result from loose or damaged engine
mountings.
Propeller shaft vibrations will keep on increasing as the vehicle speed
increase. The propeller shaft does not cause a vibration that is present
only in a narrow speed range.
In car repairs –
Unbalance
Runout
Unbalance –
Runout
Caution:
Before undercoating a vehicle with any underbody protection. The
propeller shaft and the UJ’s should be covered. This will prevent the
undercoating from causing an unbalanced condition and vibration.
Use the exact replacement hardware for attaching the propeller shafts.
The specified torque’s must always be applied when tightening the
mounting bolts.
2. Inspect the Universal Joint for Grease & play; fill the grease through
the grease nipple with pressurized gun.

Description
The rear suspension is with coil spring and five links. This type of rear suspension
provides more comfort & better handling characteristics of the vehicle.
The suspension encompasses Upper Links, lower links, Pan hard Rod. Coil springs &
Shock Absorbers.The upper & lower links are tubular with rubber bushes press fitted
on both ends. The lower links are taking the loads due to acceleration & braking. The
upper links mainly are used to guide and to some extent share the lateral loads. One
end of the links is connected to the chassis while the other end is at axle.
The Pan hard rod is connected between the axle & the chassis .It takes all the
transverse loads experienced during cornering controlling the axle movement in lateral
direction.
The anti roll bars are used to transfer the loads to the outer wheel during turns.
The coil springs absorb the road shocks due to terrain & different load conditions. The
shock absorbers dampen the oscillations of the vehicle. The rubber bumper fitted on
the chassis reduces the impact loads into the body.
The bonded rubber silent blocks / bushings are press fitted & does not require
lubrication with oil. (Also should never be lubricated). While jacking up the vehicle
the jack should always be put below the axle only. Under any circumstances the
vehicle should not be jacked up putting the jack below any of the link including
Pan hard rod.
While lifting the vehicle, if the resting pads are pressing against any of
l lower links, then there is a strong possibility that lower links may get
bent.

The Heater, Ventilation and Air conditioning combines air conditioning, heating and
ventilating functions.
Heater system
The heater system is controlled water flow system. A water valve controls the quantity
of water entering the heater core.
The refrigerant at low pressure and temperature enters the compressor where it is
compressed and its pressure and temperature increase. The refrigerant after leaving
compressor enters condenser and here it is condensed into high-pressure liquid and is
collected in receiver drier. From the receiver drier it passes through expansion valve
where it is throttled down to a low temperature and pressure. After finding its way
through expansion valve it finally passes into evaporator coil where it extracts heat

from surrounding. The refrigerant, which was in low-pressure liquid state, converts to
low-pressure vapour. The low-pressure vapour then again enters the compressor.
The incoming air (in fresh mode or recycle mode) passes through a particle filter &
then gets cooled and dehumidified by the evaporator. The evaporator is in operation
all the times unless the AC switch is kept in off condition. To maintain minimum
evaporator temperature a fixed thermostat-setting switch controls the compressor
clutch. This switch which is called Anti freeze switch has a probe so that it touches the
coldest part of the evaporator is used to avoid formation of ice. (If ice formation is
allowed then the ice formed prevents exchange of heat thus reducing the cooling and
forcing the compressor to work continuously/ longer period leading to low cooling as
well as system failure.)
The evaporator always cools the incoming air (recirculated or fresh) to an amount set
by the fixed thermostat value. The cooled air later goes through the heater coil. Thus
the final air temperature is dependent on the amount of hot water passing through the
heater.
For example when the control panel thermostat is set to the coldest value then no
quantity of hot water goes through the heater and the final outcome is only the cold
air. As the control panel’s knob is moved towards the hotter the mixing start i.e. the
quantity of hot water going through the heater starts increasing proportionately.
It should be borne in mind that when the engine is cold the temperature of incoming
water is low, hence to get a desired temperature the knob will have to be set any
given position. However as the engine warms up the water coming to the heater also
gets warmer, thus the final out coming air temperature will raise. As a result after the
engine warms up the knob in the panel will have to be readjusted to get the same out
coming air temperature.
High-Low Pressure operation:. If the system pressure becomes low then it switches
off the compressor. Thus in the case of refrigerant loss due to any system leak the
compressor failure is avoided. Once the pressure increases above 32 bar then the
compressor is shut off to avoid any system failure. If the system pressure falls due to
any leaks then the compressor is switched off.
Medium pressure operation: When the pressure in the system goes above 17 bars then
it switches on the condenser fan. As the pressure reduces below 14 bar the condenser
fan is switched off.

Do not allow liquid refrigerant to touch bright metal. Refrigerant will tarnish
bright metal and chrome surface. Refrigerant in combination with moisture is
very corrosive and can damage to all metal surfaces.
When charging, always keep the tank in upright position. If the tank is on its
side or upside down, liquid refrigerant will enter and affect the compressor.
Always double check that the gas being used is a R134A.The refrigerant
cylinder is color-coded to avoid confusion. R134A is Blue.
The compressor oil for R134A gas is different from R12A compressor oil. Do not
mix. If the R12A compatible compressor oil is used then it will damage the O
rings as well as the receiver Drier.
The Robinair equipment AC 350 should be used with R134A gas only.
PAG oil is highly hygroscope. Open containers only when ready to use. Cap

Performance test –
Pressure gauge readings together with the face air outlet temperatures are the only
method of checking and diagnosing the cooling system.
The compressor is charged at the factory with 150 cc of FD46XG(PAG) refrigerant oil,
which circulates within the entire AC system. Only this type of oil, which is pale
yellow in color, must be used when adding or changing oil. This oil is not compatible
with any other PAG oil. It is not necessary to regularly check the oil level in the
system. It should be remembered that the oil gets circulated within the whole system.
Therefore, whenever an AC system component is replaced a quantity of new
refrigerant oil must be added to the system, where a major loss of system oil has
occurred. The loss normally takes place when:
Hose failure or leak is present.

The function of the anti freeze switch is to protect the refrigerant system from
damage. It switches off the compressor when the condenser water dries ices up on the
evaporator fins. Otherwise, the evaporator becomes extra cool, resulting in the air
passage between the fins getting blocked. Suction pipe becomes extra cool and
sometimes iced up, the refrigerant remains liquid even after the expansion valve due
to insufficient heat transfer across the evaporator surface and eventually the
compressor will get damaged due to liquid refrigerant inflow.

Description
The power steering system is a rack and pinion type hydraulic system. The engine
driven hydraulic –pump supplies oil to a control valve situated in housing that supports
the pinion shaft. Movement, imparted to the control valve from the shaft in the
steering column is via a torsion bar. This sensing bar moves the control valve, which in
turn directs the oil to one side or the other side of the ram piston inside the steering
rack.
The control valve is a rotary type spool valve controlled by the torsion bar interposed
between the steering shaft and pinion of the steering box. The spool valve is a shaft
with six flutes and a sleeve, which has six internal axial grooves, encases this. Radial
ports in the sleeve and shaft pass the oil from the supply to the lines connected to the
ram chamber.
A series of the splines between the shaft and the sleeve limit the twist of the torsion
bar to about 7 degrees in each direction; below this angle the torque applied by the
driver to the steering box is transmitted by the torsion bar. This fail-safe feature
provides a mechanical drive from the steering shaft to the pinion in the event of any
power system failure.
The amount of the twist of the torsion bar and the movement of the spool valve is
proportional to the effort applied by the driver. Initial power steering assistance is
obtained at about 0.5 degrees deflection of the bar and this power rises progressively
as the bar moves to about 4 degrees; the point o maximum assistance.
When the wheel is in straight-ahead position, all the ports are open so oil is allowed to
flow through the valve and return to the reservoir.
As soon as the wheel is turned, the torsion bar is deflected; this allows the spool valve
to rotate relative to the sleeve, cutting off the oil flow both to the reservoir and one
side of the ram. At the same time the other side of the ram is subjected to oil
pressure, which builds up sufficiently to move the road wheel and return the torsion
bar to no – torque position. During this stage the oil displaced from the uncompressed
side of the ram is returned to the reservoir.
On occasion when the resistance to road wheel movement is excessive, the oil
pressures build up to its maximum. At this pressure a relief valve fitted inside the
pump opens and allows the oil to return to pump inlet.

Trouble Shooting –
The rack and pinion design is a simple design. However it is still susceptible to various
problems in particular to leaks. If the bellows are ripped or are unable to keep the
contaminant’s away then it can cause damage to oil seal and subsequent leaks.
One complaint, which can be present, is that the steering may be stiff and jerky when
the unit is cold and as the vehicle is driven/ warmed the power assist gradually comes
back. It normally indicates that grooves worn into the bore of the pinion aluminum
housing by hard control valve seals.
Wear in the centre housing causes the fluid to leak around the rack piston. Causing
either steering wander or lack of straight-ahead stability. Another cause of steering
wander and erratic control often accompanied by clumping, thunking noise is the
deterioration of rack mounting bushings.
Fluid levels can be hard to locate. Sometimes you will see a low level in the pump
reservoir but no evidence of escaping liquid. Squeeze the bellows and you will
probably find that they are full of liquid. To confirm if that side of the rack is the
culprit, then remove the both the bellows, clean the rack housing and then operate
the system to observe the seepage directly.
After attending to the repairs it critical that the system be completely flushed
completely. Disconnect the return line from the pump and put in a container, then
disable the injection (remove the wire from the shut off solenoid) and crank the
engine. Add fresh fluid until you get a clear flow from the line. Take care that the
reservoir does not run dry during the flushing. Failure to do so will result in
premature failure of the repaired unit.)

The pump is a constant flow, vane type incorporating a flow control valve (with an
integrated relief valve) and it is gear driven by engine. The power steering pump
consists of housing, drive shaft, cartridge assembly & bearing(s) apart from the valve.
As the pump rotates a vacuum is created at the inlet, which causes atmospheric
pressure to force the fluid in to pump from the reservoir. As the rotor rotates, the
inlet port closes and the fluid is trapped between the vans. Further movement forces
the fluid to be pressurized as the profile of the cam ring constantly reduces the
available volume. At the minimum point of the profile the chamber opens into the
outlet port.
The rotor is having 10 vanes, thus each rotation is equal to 5 pumping action. The
discharge rate of the power steering pump increases in proportion to the pump speed
increases.. The flow control valve is provided to maintain the optimum flow of the
supplied oil for power steering operation, at all engine speeds. The relief pressure will
open when the system pressure exceeds the set value. This normally happens when
the steering wheel is turned and held in the lock position.

Necessity
The seat belt is a concrete device for protecting the body of a passenger in a
collision. But when the body is subjected to a large impact in the case of a
high-speed collision, the seat belt alone cannot protect the body. And
especially in the case of a serious front-end collision, the upper body tilts
forward even when it is secured with the seat belt, and the head or chest may
collide with the steering wheel or the windshield, resulting in injuries.
The SRS Air bag system is a device that reduces head and chest injuries to the
driver and passengers by inflating an airbag installed in the steering wheel or
the instrument panel when such a collision occurs, supplementing the function
of the seat belt.
Thus, the SRS Air bag system supplements the restraining and protective
functions of the seat belt. For that reason the name of the system is
Supplementary Restraint System (SRS)

SRS Components
Operation
The crash sensors in the air bag ECU continuously monitor to determine if the
frontal impact is severe enough to deploy the air bags. When an impact of
sufficient force occurs, the air bag ECU sends an electrical signal to the air bag
modules which in turn rapidly ignites the energetic material and inflates the air
bag. The inflated airbag deploys out of steering wheel and glove box cover. As
the entire deployment of air bag happens in less than a second, in combination
with seat belts, it slows down the driver’s or passengers forward motion, thus
reducing the risk of head or chest injury. The air bags deflate quickly thru the
pores in the air bag cushion. Therefore air bag is not a substitute of seat belts.
To maximize your protection always wear seat belts. The SRS can function only
when the ignition key is ‘ON’.
Note: The SRS front air bags are not designed to inflate for side or rear
collisions, roll over or if it is involved in low speed frontal collision.

General Precautions:
Please read the following precautions carefully before performing the airbag
system service. Observe the instructions described in this manual, or the
airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
• Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it. Do not install any
part that shows signs of being dropped or improperly handled, such as
dents, cracks or deformation.
• Before removing any of the SRS parts (including the disconnection of the
connectors), always disconnect the SRS connector.

Description
The Driver Air Bag Module sits centrally as a complete unit in the steering
wheel. At high speeds, the danger arises of being thrown against the steering
wheel in the event of a crash, even if the driver’s seat belt is fastened. The air
bag protects the driver against collision with the steering wheel & thus
alleviates the consequences of the accident. The deployment of DAB depends
upon the severity and direction of the frontal collisions.
Note: The SRS front air bags are not designed to inflate for side or rear
collisions, roll over or if it is involved in low speed frontal collision.

control the speed of the vehicle. It enables the driver to maintain a constant road
speed without using the accelerator pedal. To activate cruise, the vehicle speed must
be greater than 40 km/h and engine speed should be greater than 1200 rpm.
• Its usefulness for long drives across sparsely populated roads results in better
fuel efficiency.
• To maintain the lane speed limit.
Operating Principle -
Cruise Control system works on the closed loop system principal. System controls the
fuel injection of Engine depending on the feedback signal of speed of the vehicle, to

Operating principle
Light Sensing
• The ambient light detection lens picks up the light / luminous intensity in the
vicinity of the vehicle.
• The frontal light detection detects the light / luminous intensity directly in front of
the vehicle.
• With intelligent software algorithm & considering difference between ambient light
detection lens & frontal light detection length accordingly Head-lamps will get On &
OFF.
Rain Sensing
• This Rain Light sensor is based on the principle of reflection and refraction.
• This sensor has Emitters & Receivers.
• The sensor transmits infrared beams towards windscreen and light bounces back
from surface of the windscreen to the receiver.
• The light bounces back from surface of the windscreen to the receiver.
• If water in any form sticks on the outside surface of the windscreen, it disturbs the
Beams and microcontroller interprets the data and determines the wiping speed.

RLS Operation -
1. Turn ON the Ignition
2. To activate the “AUTO LIGHT” feature, press switch with Auto light symbol
3. The orange LED on the switch will be continuously ON indicating that AUTO LIGHT
feature is activated. To come out of the Auto Light we have to press the switch once
again.
4. To activate the “AUTO RAIN” feature, press switch with Auto wiper symbol .
• Once “AUTO RAIN” mode is activated, system will give one WIPE on a Windshield and
the orange LED on the switch will be continuously ON indicating that AUTO RAIN
feature is activated.
• This feature will get deactivated either by turning off the ignition or pressing the
AUTO RAIN button.
• In case of any damages / scratches to windshield, new sensor needs to be installed/
assembled.
• Old sensor can not be used on the new windshield as it is calibrated for a particular
windshield.
• In case of any damage to Sensor, new sensor needs to be installed/ assembled at
authorized service stations because sensor is a non-serviceable unit.
• Auto Head-lamps will remain “ON” until enough Light intensity is not available. Once
enough light is present, after 5 Sec Head-Lamp will go OFF. This is a designed feature
to avoid false Switching ON / OFF of Headlamp.
• Do not put any band/tape outside the sensor on windshield.
• Do not use any chemical to clean inner surface of front windshield to avoid any
damage to the sensor.

Limitations -
• There is a difference between Light intensity sensed by Sensor & by Human eye. It
may possible in the evening time Head- Lamp will get on early as sensor senses it as a
Low intensity.
This is absolutely a normal behavior. In case customer doesn't require Light, he can
switch OFF “AUTO LIGHT” mode anytime.
• After sensing the water on windshield, wiping will start automatically. It might
possible that after wiping initiated you cannot see water on windshield but still wipers
will keep on
wiping. This is because of the mist present on windshield. Human eye cannot see that
but Sensor can sense it & it will keep on wiping. This is absolutely a normal behavior.
In case customer doesn't require Wipe, he can switch OFF “AUTO RAIN” mode anytime.
• Sensor cannot detect difference between water & mud, ice, snow, oil etc. In these
cases sensor may not behave properly and customer can switch OFF “AUTO RAIN”
mode manually.

Description –
Reverse Parking Assistance system is an indicating system, which detects the obstacle
behind the vehicle above the ground level and alerts the driver with the distance and
direction of the obstacle along with the alert sound while reversing the vehicle
Operating Principle -
It works on ultrasonic principle, In case of any obstacles lying behind the vehicle up to
maximum distance defined from the rear bumper i.e. 120 cm, obstacle height should
be 30 cm from the ground.
Sensor height (from the centre of the sensor) is above 57.8 cm from ground level in un
laden condition and 44.5 cm in fully laden condition, waves get disturbed and are
reflected back to sensor and sensor transmits the signal to ECU which converts data
into Audio/Visual alarm to driver.
The audible warning begins when reversing vehicle from a distance of about 120 cm.
The smaller the distance, longer will be the beep.
• High sensitivity
• - System automatically gets activated when the vehicle is shifted to reverse gear.
• The system generates both audible and visual warning on IRVM when the vehicle
comes within 120cm of the obstacle.
• Display with car image in IRVM provides the distance in cm and the direction of the
obstacle (left or right side of the vehicle)
• 3 sensors provide the maximum coverage across the width of the vehicle.
• Uses ultrasonic frequency for accuracy
Specifications –
• Operating temperature range: 35-110°C
• 3 detection zones: Less than 50, 50-70, 70-120 cm
System Description
Reverse Parking Assistance system consists of:
• Electronic Control unit (ECU)
• Sensors (3 numbers fitted at the rear bumper)
• Internal Rear View Mirror (IRVM) with car image and buzzer integrated.

Description –
Smart Power window with anti-pinch automatically stops during express up when
obstructions are detected in the path of the closing window.
This feature is provided on both the sides (i.e. Driver & Co Driver)
Customer benefit: Safety and convenience, particularly with feature like one-touch
closing.
Operating Principle –
Motor With Hall effect sensor - Power Window assembly with in-built Hall effect
sensor in motor gives output pulses for every revolution of motor to the controller
which enables the controller to trace the position of the glass and reverse the
direction of glass in case any upward movement of glass is obstructed before it
reaches to top end position.
Controller - The electronic control unit which is programmed with logic senses and
memorizes the end positions along with the frictional resistance of door during the
learning process.
Functions
Driver/Co Driver door with anti-pinching -
AUTO UP:
• Turn ON the Ignition.
• Pull the Driver/Co Driver door switch button more than 0.5 Sec. Glass will start
moving in upward direction. Remove your hand from switch.
• During this upward travel, any obstacle is detected with the force value ranging
between 70 ~ 100 Newton, controller will sense the load and will reverse the direction
of glass in down ward direction for almost full stroke length.
• However if the force against the glass is less than the specified value then this
function does not operate.
AUTO DOWN:
• Push the Driver/Co Driver door switch button more than 0.5 sec, glass will start
move in downward direction. Remove your hand from switch.
• These all functions like Auto Up/ down, Anti-pinch during Auto UP will get
deactivated in case of removal of Vehicle Battery Positive or Negative terminal.
• With de-activation of this feature, normal power windows will still function.

1. Move the window glass to extreme bottom most position by continuously pressing
the switch.
2. Start moving the glass up by pressing UP switch, hold the switch for two seconds
after reaching to top most position, system will understand this position as extreme
top position of glass.
3. Start moving the glass down wards by pressing down switch, hold the switch for two
seconds after reaching bottom most position, system will understand this position as
extreme bottom position of the glass.
With the above action, the system memorizes the end positions and the controller is
set for that stroke length.
Now pull and hold the power window switch for 1 sec for express window up. The
same procedure is to be repeated for express window down.
During express up, if movement of glass is obstructed by a 70 N force or more, it will
start moving in down ward direction for almost full stroke length.
• Make sure that the passenger has his/her hands etc. inside the vehicle before closing
the windows.
• Do not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches.
Recommendations -
1. In case of vehicle Battery terminal removal (Positive & negative) the express
up/express down/ Anti pinch during express up will get de-initialized. To initialize the
function we have to learn the system for one complete cycle.
2. In case of hard whether strip condition in express Up mode, glass will treat it as an
obstacle and glass will start going down. This needs to be checked at authorized
service stations
3. In case of anti pinching 5 times continuously at the same point, controller will loose
memory, so power window needs to be re learnt.

to the original position by following steps No. 4 to 6.
If more than two tyres are to be swapped refer to sequential tyre rotation procedure.
- In case of tyre damage/ worn out ,the same sensor needs to be checked for the
physical damage before installing in the new tyre at recommended service station
After installation , the tyres need to be learned with system
- TPMS sensor is more precise than consumer-grade tyre pressure gauges. It may be
necessary to explain this if the customer routinely mis-inflates tyres using a gas

Description
The tyres fitted in Scorpio are radial tubeless tyres and with a suitable wheel disc.
In the tyre P 235/75 R 16 - The 215 is the width of the tyre in mm at the designated
air pressure and load. The / 75 is the aspect ratio of the tyre. (Ratio between the
height and width here the height is 0.75 times the width
The tyres play a very important and vital role in the vehicle handling and ride
characteristic. Hence it is advised that any change not as per the specification have to
be done with caution.
The air pressure maintained has a direct influence on the fuel average obtained,
braking and also on ride characteristic. Hence it is imperative that the tyre pressure
be maintained as per specification. The tyre specified with the specified air pressure
gives these tyres a safe speed of 180 Km/hr

The tyre pressure should be checked once in a fortnight. (Once a week during
summers). The tyre pressures should always be checked & corrected in cold
condition. The valve should be always covered with the valve cover. An opened
valve can have the valve needle stuck in a partial position causing the tyre to bleed
during operation..
The tyre pressure specified can cater to continuous high-speed performance. Hence it
is not advisable to increase the tyre pressure before going on a high speed run.
The practice of keeping the tyre pressure lower in summer is actually detrimental
to the tyre. To understand that let us examine what happens – if lower pressure is
kept. Then the sidewall flexing is going to be more hence the heat generation will
also be higher which will result in a faster increase in tyre pressure. So the wear
rate is going to be higher.
Similarly the practice of bleeding the tyre pressure to reduce the pressure after a
long run can cause the sidewall to crack and in a worst scenario sidewall bulging.
It should also be kept in mind that a radial tyre with higher pressure is more prone
to burst under impact from stone at high speed or kerb impact. Lower air pressure
results in higher sidewall flexing and drastically increases the chance of sidewall
damage / cut in bad roads.

The grooves in the tyre are used to pump out the water between the road and the
tyre. In case the water is not pumped out the tyre will ride on water. Since the
coefficient of friction of water is very low that will result a sliding action. Obviously
the amount of water which the tyre can pump out between the ground and the tyre
will depend on the depth of the groove which is acting as a channel. The tyre
manufacturers recommend that a minimum tread depth of 1.6 mm should be present.
Once the tread depth is less than 1.6 mm it is recommended to replace the tyres. I t is
not advisable to retread the tyre.
Any kind of lubricant on the tyre is detrimental as it promotes degradation of rubber
and also increases the chance of hardening. Normally this happens when a mechanics
rubs the spare oil or grease on to the sidewall of the tyre.

Tyre Rotation –
1. Check & ensure tyre pressure at 2.2 bars / 32 psi in all five wheels.
2. Rotate ( swap the positions ) the wheels as shown in the diagram above
In case the vehicle reports for wheel wobbling then the sequence of balancing &
rotation should be as follows:
Important: Before going ahead with the procedure; do road tests and at that time:-
Please remember that the road shocks can come to the steering wheel while going
over rough or uneven patch.
The important point is that after the road shock is over then it should not continue to
vibrate.
Preliminary Stage:
Mark each tyre assembly position with respect to the hub/ axle shaft.
Balance all the tyre and place it back it each wheel in the same position. (Tyre
pressure for all wheel-32psi)
Now follow the sequence of Stage A, Stage B, Stage C. Road test after each stage:

In Car Repairs –
The tyres should be removed and then only be attended for puncture or damage.
For removal of the tyre from the vehicle the jacking points are:
For 2WD Front- to be supported on the chassis, behind the lower arm just below the
first outrigger.
For 4WD Front -Behind the lower arm just below the first outrigger. While locating
the jack or the locating for the 2-post lift please ensure that it does not touch the
torsion bar. (It can cause the torsion bar to bend.)
Never go under the vehicle when it is jacked up. This jack is meant for only raising
the wheel. For any under body work/inspection support the vehicle on vehicle
stands.
If the vehicle is run with severely under inflated tyres – the vehicle stability may be
affected. A run flat wheel can also damage the wheel disc- besides literally shredding
the tyre.
It is recommended that the tyre removal and re-fitment on the wheel disc be done
in a tyre specialist shop where the tyre fitting machines are available. The
advantage of the machine over the conventional method is that the damage to the
beading area is totally avoided.
It is recommended that the tyre be inflated to a pressure of 40 PSI. This will ensure
that the bead is locked in properly and also in centralizing. Then later reduce the
pressure to the recommended pressure.

Surface preparation
Proper surface preparation is the key to top quality body panel refinishing. Even if it is
sometimes long, sanding with the adequate abrasives of suitable material and properly
trained personnel will ensure a quality result. The importance of selecting the right
grit is a must. If unsuitable grit is used then will cause damage impossible to hide. For
example a 40 grit causes very deep scratched – do not ever use this grit.
Always clean the panel surface with a wax and grease removal solution and then wipe
the surface with a lint free rag before applying primer or paint. Cleaning will also
remove any residual silicone from the painted surface.
Body putty that is procured from any major supplier is recommended. If synthetic
body filler is to be used then it should be a quality product.
Primer
The type of primer to be used is dependent on the condition of the panel surface. Bare
metal should be primed with epoxy – base. A sealant is recommended when applying a
second color coat over an existing color coat. With certain colors sealants are also
important in preventing bleed through.
Base color coat paint finishes must be applied in a clean envoirement. Top loader guns
are recommended for applying the base / color cat paint.
Base / color coat paint should be reduced/ thinned and applied to the manufacturers
suggestion. Please refer to the manufacturer suggestion.
Basecoat/ Clearcoat
Basecoat/ Clearcoat application is a two stage process. The Basecoat is applied over
the final primer coat. The Clearcoat is then applied over the Basecoat. The Clearcoat
provides the paint finish with a high gloss and increased durability
The work areas should be well ventilated for application of Basecoat and Clearcoat
paint. More particularly when applying the Clearcoat paint.
Buff the surface area with fine grade buffing compound. Finish the repair with quality
polishing compound to blend and restore the gloss.

A surface primer must be applied over the repaired metal substrate. The body parts
taken from the Spare parts have the OE treatment of CED priming.
The primer provides a bond between the metal and the colurs base coat. Various type
of primers for use in exposed parts are available. Surface primers are available in
