NOISE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM REGULATION
Tampering With Noise Control System Is Prohibited!
U.S. Federal law and Canadian provincial laws may prohibit the following acts or the causing there of:
1. The removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes of maintenance, repair or
replacement of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of
noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use or
2. The use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative
by any person.
Among Those Acts Presumed to Constitute Tampering Are the Acts Listed Below:
1. Removal or alteration or the puncturing of the muffler or any engine component which conducts re-
moval of engine exhaust gases.
2. Removal or alteration or the puncturing of any part of the intake system.
3. Replacing any moving parts of the vehicle or parts of the exhaust or intake system, with parts other
than those specified by the manufacturer.
4. Lack of proper maintenance.

Test coolant density using an antifreeze hydrometer.
NOTE: Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper
use.
A 50/50 mixture of antifreeze and distilled water
will provide the optimum cooling, corrosion protec-

contains minerals and impurities which build
up in the system. Straight water will cause the
system to freeze while straight antifreeze will

To place piston at ignition TDC, it is possible to use
two procedures.
First possible procedure:
– Remove CVT cover. Refer to CVT section.
– Turn the drive pulley until piston is at TDC.
Second possible procedure:
– Using rewind starter, rotate the crankshaft until 1
piston is at ignition TDC.
To fix piston at ignition TDC, it is possible to use
two procedures. 2

2. Position for crankshaft locking bolt
CAUTION: When removing camshaft screw al-
ways lock camshaft using locking tool (P/N 529 Test

Clean all metal components in a solvent.
Crankcase mating surfaces are best cleaned using
a combination of the chisel gasket remover (P/N
413 708 500) and a brass brush. Brush a first pass
in one direction then make the final brushing per-
pendicularly (90°) to the first pass cross (hatch).
CAUTION: Do not wipe with rags. Use a new clean
hand towel only.
IMPORTANT: When beginning the application of
the crankcase sealant, the assembly and the first
torquing should be done within 10 minutes. It is sug-
gested to have all you need on hand to save time.
NOTE: It is recommended to apply this specific
sealant as described here to get a uniform applica-
tion without lumps. If you do not use the roller meth-

General
The only difference between gearbox of the Out-
lander 400 to 330 is the transmission ratio of gears
no. 22 and no. 29 (high range gear).
During and after gearbox disassembly, inspect the
condition of each part closely. In particular, check for:
– gear teeth damage
– worn or scoured bearing surfaces
– worn or scoured shift fork
– worn or scoured shift fork shaft
– rounded engagement dogs and slots

Check fuel pump operation as follows:
– Connect a clean plastic tubing to the fuel inlet
nipple. Using pump from leak test kit (P/N 529

BATTERY TESTING
There are 2 types of battery tests: unloaded and
loaded. An unloaded test is made on a battery with-
out discharging current. It is the simplest and most
commonly used. However, be aware that the volt-
age test can be good, while the battery does not
have enough power to start the engine. A load test
gives a more accurate condition of the battery.

GENERAL
Ignition Problems
When dealing with ignition problems, the follow-
ing items should be checked in this order. After
one item has been checked and it is found not to
be the problem, continue with the next item:
1. main fuse condition
2. spark occurrence
3. battery condition
4. ignition switch
5. CPS (Crankshaft Position Sensor)
6. ignition coil
7. electronic module.
Multiple Problems
There is always the possibility of more than one
faulty part. If after a component has been re-
placed, the problem still persists, carefully repeat
the complete test procedure to find the other
faulty part.

GENERAL
The procedure explains below is the same for the
RH and LH sides unless otherwise instructed.
For installation, use the torque values and Loctite
products from the exploded views. Clean threads
before using Loctite when reinstalling the screws.
WARNING
Torque wrench tightening specifications
must strictly be adhered to.
Locking devices (ex.: locking tabs, elastic stop
nuts, self-locking fasteners, etc.) must be in-
stalled or replaced with new ones where
specified. If the efficiency of a locking device V07H07A
is impaired, it must be renewed.
Inspection
WHEEL HUB Check wheel hub for cracks or other damages.
Removal Check inner splines for wear or other damages.
Raise the front of vehicle, support it securely on jack If any damage is detected on wheel hub, replace
stands and remove front wheel. it with a new one.
Remove: Check wear ring no. 6. If damage is apparent, re-
place the wear ring.

– cotter pin no. 2
– castellated nut no. 3
– flat washer no. 4.

Inspection
Check bearing in plunging joint or CV joint. If bear-
ing is hard to move, change plunging joint or CV
joint.
Check circlip for damage, change as necessary.
Installation
For installation, reverse the removal procedure.
Pay attention to the following details.
Insert boot, do not forget the small clamp.
Insert shaft and push firmly.
Pack bearing area with grease (included with the
new boot kit).
NOTE: Do not use or add other grease.

Remove:
– clamps from rubber boot using boot clamp pli-
ers (P/N 295 000 069 and 295 000 054)
– large end of the boot from plunging joint or CV joint.

On both sides, remove the drive shafts (refer to
FRONT DRIVE SHAFT above).
Drain the differential.
NOTE: It is possible to remove differential without
draining it, in this case, do not tilt it.

Inspection
Turn front differential gear with a finger; it should
turn smoothly. Replace if necessary.
Check backlash, see BACKLASH PROCEDURE
further in this section.
Check if oil seals are brittle, hard or damaged. Re-
place if necessary.
Installation
The installation is the reverse of the removal pro-
cedure.

Welding
Steel Frame:
– electric welding
– amperage: 70 - 110 A
– voltage: 20 - 24 V
– rod: E-7014 (3/32 in).
CAUTION: Before performing electrical welding
anywhere on the vehicle, unplug the multiple
connector at the electronic module connector.
Also unplug the negative cable and the voltage
regulator. This will protect the electronic module
and battery against damage caused by flowing
current when welding.
NOTE: Install the ground as close as possible from
the reparation area.
CAUTION: If welding is to be done near plastic
material, it is recommended to either remove the
part from the area or to protect it with aluminum
foil to prevent damage.
