Matrix FWD L4-1.8L (2ZR-FE) (2010)
SST : 09556-16011
(c) Using SST, rotate the rear differential case forward and backward, and measure the backlash.
SST : 09564-32011
Backlash:
0.10 to 0.15 mm (0.00394 to 0.00591 in.)
NOTICE:
Measure at 3 or more areas on the circumference of the ring gear.
(d) If the backlash is not within the specification, adjust the side bearing preload or repair as necessary.
10. INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL DRIVE PINION PRELOAD
(a) Using SST and a torque wrench, inspect the preload (starting torque) of the backlash between the differential drive pinion and differential ring
gear.
SST : 09556-16011
Standard drive pinion preload:
0.4 to 0.7 N*m (4 to 7 kgf*cm, 3.0 to 6.0 in.*lbf)
NOTICE:
For a more accurate measurement, rotate the case bearing forward and backward before measuring.
(b) If the preload is not within the specified range, adjust the total preload or repair as necessary.
11. INSPECT TOTAL PRELOAD
(a) Using SST and a torque wrench, inspect the preload (starting torque) with the teeth of the differential drive pinion and differential ring gear in
contact.
SST : 09556-16011
Standard total preload:
Standard drive pinion preload plus 0.29 to 0.49 N*m (3 to 5 kgf*cm, 2.6 to 4.3 in.*lbf)
NOTICE:
For a more accurate measurement, rotate the case bearing forward and backward before measuring.
