Cruise Control; Fluid Leakage; Water Leak Test - Subaru BRZ 2016 Service Manual

• MT
1) Check for smooth operation to each position.
2) Check that the lever cannot be moved to the re-
verse position unless the pull-ring is pulled up.
3) Check that the lever can be moved to the re-
verse position when the pull-ring is pulled up.

55.CRUISE CONTROL

After starting the engine, operate the cruise control
system. Check that the system is activated and de-
activated correctly.
56.POWER STEERING SYSTEM (ELECTRIC
POWER STEERING MODEL)
Check that "STEERING" warning light illuminates
when the ignition is turned to ON, and that
"STEERING" warning light turns off after the engine
is started.

57.FLUID LEAKAGE

Check entire areas of the vehicle for any trace of
coolant/oil (such as engine and gear oil)/fluid (such
as transmission and brake) leaks.

58.WATER LEAK TEST

Spray the vehicle with water using a hose and
check that no water enters the passenger compart-
ment.
• Before performing the water leakage test, re-
move anything that may obstruct the operation or
which must be kept dry.
• Close all the windows and doors securely. Close
the front hood and trunk lid before starting the test.
• Spray the vehicle with water using a hose. The
rate of water spray must be approx. 20 to 25 L (5.3
— 6.6 US gal, 4.4 — 5.5 Imp gal) per minute.
When spraying water on areas adjacent to the floor
and wheel house, increase the pressure. When
spraying water on areas other than the floor and
wheel house, decrease the pressure. But the force
of water must be made strong occasionally by
pressing the end of the hose.
NOTE:
Be sure to keep the hose at least 10 cm (3.9 in)
away from vehicle.
Check the following areas.
• Front window and body framework mating por-
tion
• Door mating portions
• Glass mating portions
• Rear quarter window mating portions
• Rear window and body framework mating por-
tion
• Around roof drips
Pre-delivery Inspection
If any dampness in the compartments is discovered
after the water has been applied, carefully check all
the areas that may have possibly contributed to the
leak.
59.APPEARANCE 2
1) If protective coating (wrap guard) is applied, re-
move it.
NOTE:
• It is easier to remove the wrap guard using
steam.
• For a vehicle left for a long time or at low temper-
ature, sprinkle some water heated to 50 — 60°C
(122 — 140°F) over the vehicle to raise its surface
temperature before peeling off the wrap guard. Do
not use the water heated to over 60°C (140°F).
• If the adhesive remains exist on the coated sur-
face, soak a flannel rag, etc. with a small amount of
coating wax or solvent such as oil benzene and
IPA, put the soaked cloth on the remains lightly,
and then wipe them off with a flannel rag etc.
• Keep solvent from touching the resin or rubber
parts. Do not use coating wax or solvent while the
component surface temperature is high due to hot
weather etc.
• If the coated surface is swollen out due to seams
or moisture, expose the vehicle to the sunlight for a
few hours or heat the seam and swollen portions
using a dryer etc.
• Dispose of the peeled wrap guard as burnable
industrial garbage.
• If a label is attached to the fog light lens, remove
it.
2) Check the whole vehicle body for flaking paint,
damage by transportation, corrosion, dirt, cracks or
blisters.
NOTE:
• It is better to determine an inspection pattern in
order to avoid missing an area, since the total in-
spection area is wide.
• Do not repair the body paint unless absolutely
necessary. Also, if the vehicle is in need of repair to
remove scratches or corroded paint, the repair area
must be limited to the minimum. Re-painting and
spray painting must be avoided as much as possi-
ble.
3) Check each window glass for scratches careful-
ly. Slight damage may be removed by polishing
with cerium oxide. (Fill a cup half with cerium oxide,
and add warm water to it. Then agitate the content
until it turns to wax. Apply this wax to a soft cloth,
and polish the glass with it.)
