All Vehicles

1. CAUTION: The maximum amount by which the engine management system will adjust the camshaft timing (VCT control unit) is limited to two degrees. As a

result of this an extremely high degree of accuracy is required for any work which affects the valve timing.

NOTE: The locations of engine mountings and engine support insulators are described looking from the transaxle to the engine.

NOTE: Operation steps which only apply to certain model variants and therefore do not apply to all vehicles are clearly marked.

Disconnect the battery ground cable.

3. Loosen the right-hand front wheel nuts.

4. Remove the right-hand front wheel.
