Subject:
IDLE VIBRATION DUE TO MIS-POSITIONED DAMPERS
APPLICABLE MODELS/VINS
All 1993-95 626/MX-6 (2.0L ATX and MTX) vehicles.
DESCRIPTION
Abnormal idle vibration may occur in some vehicles. Abnormal vibration that is felt through the steering wheel, shift level and floor may be caused by
mis-positioned radiator dynamic dampers.
If a customer complains of this vibration, inspect the vehicle prior to performing service. Refer to the procedures below.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.
Test drive the vehicle with the customer.
^
If no abnormal vibration is felt, test drive a comparably equipped vehicle with the customer to demonstrate the inherent vibration that
transverse mounted engines generate. Assure the customer that the amount of vibration is normal.
^
If abnormal vibration is felt, proceed to step 2..
2.
Examine the upper radiator pins:
^
Centering - Viewing from the top, confirm that the pins are centered in the upper radiator mounting bracket.
NOTE:
No vehicle will have perfectly centered pins. It is important that the radiator move freely about this area. Pins must not be jammed or forced
into one area of the bracket that limits movement.
^
Height - Facing the front of the vehicle, the left and right pins should have approximately the same height from the upper mounts.
