Outline
Troubleshooting item |
Frequent front wheel slip |
---|---|
Description
|
• Front wheels slip frequently during acceleration on low-friction road.
|
Possible cause
|
• Tire traction performance is extremely poor for given road friction. (i-ACTIV AWD system is normal.)
• Improper wheel alignment (i-ACTIV AWD system is normal.)
• Rear differential oil temperature is extremely high (Fail-safe condition)
• Differential oil temperature sensor malfunction (Fail-safe condition)
• Coupling component temperature is extremely high (Fail-safe condition)
• Coupling component temperature sensor malfunction (Fail-safe condition)
• Coupling component malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure
-
Warning
-
• During simulation driving, vehicle stability may decrease extremely and cause an accident. Be sure to perform the simulation test driving in a safe area.
Step |
Inspection |
Results |
Action |
---|---|---|---|
1
|
VERIFY DSC HU/CM, PCM, TCM, EPS CONTROL MODULE AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT (ESU) DTCs
• Verify DSC HU/CM, PCM, TCM, EPS control module and electrical supply unit (ESU) DTCs using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION.)
• Are there any DTCs present?
|
Yes
|
Go to applicable DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE [DSC HU/CM (US)].)
|
No
|
Go to next step.
|
||
2
|
VERIFY TIRE AIR PRESSURE
• Inspect tire air pressure.
• Is it within specification?
|
Yes
|
Go to next step.
|
No
|
Adjust tire air pressure, then go to next step.
|
||
3
|
COMPARE WITH SAME MODEL TIRES
• Install tires of the same model.
• Perform simulation driving.
• Does malfunction recur?
|
Yes
|
Go to next step.
|
No
|
i-ACTIV AWD system is normal.
|
||
4
|
COMPARE WITH SAME MODEL VEHICLE
• Install tires of malfunctioning vehicle to another same model vehicle.
• Perform simulation driving.
• Does malfunction recur?
|
Yes
|
i-ACTIV AWD system is normal.
|
No
|
Go to next step.
|
||
5
|
INSPECT AWD SOLENOID
• Inspect AWD solenoid. (See AWD SOLENOID INSPECTION.)
• Is AWD solenoid normal?
|
Yes
|
Inspect harness between AWD solenoid and electrical supply unit (ESU), then go to next step.
|
No
|
Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
|
||
6
|
INSPECT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
• Inspect wheel alignment. (See FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT [(US)].) (See REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT [(US)].)
• Is it normal?
|
Yes
|
Go to next step.
|
No
|
Adjust wheel alignment.
Perform the repair completion verification.
|
||
Repair completion verification
|
VERIFY THAT MALFUNCTION SYMPTOMS DO NOT RECUR AFTER REPAIR
• Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
• Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?
|
Yes
|
Complete the symptom troubleshooting.
Explain to the customer what has been repaired.
|
No
|
Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
