|
▷Effect Improves fuel efficiency by approx. 1.7%. Expands the intake CVVT operating range. (Increases the retarded amount by up to 30° compared to the default state.) ∇ LIVC (Late Intake Valve Close) ∇ 1. Improves fuel efficiency by reducing pumping loss. 2. Improves knocking characteristics by reducing compression ratio. |

Description and operation Description The catalytic converter of the gasoline engine is a three way catalyst. It oxidizes carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons (HC), and separates oxygen from the oxides of nitrogen (NOx).
Repair procedures Replacement 1. Remove the rear heater & A/C unit. (Refer to Rear Heater - "Rear Heater Unit") 2. Loosen the mounting screws and remove the rear heater core cover (A).
Diagnosis with Diagnostic tool 1. In the body electrical system, failure can be quickly diagnosed by using the vehicle diagnostic system (Diagnostic tool). The diagnostic system (Diagnostic tool) provides the following information.
