Troubleshooting













NOTE:
1. A squealing noise may be heard just after very cold engine start (-20° or less), caused by fluid characteristics at extreme low temperatures.
This is not a malfunction.
2. A slight "beat noise" is produced by the oil pump; this is not a malfunction. (This noise occurs particularly when a stationary steering effort is made.)
3. A slight vibration may be felt when a stationary steering effort is made due to the condition of the road surface. To check whether the vibration actually exists or not, test-drive the vehicle on a dry concrete or asphalt surface. A very slight amount of vibration is not a malfunction.
