2006–2014 Daihatsu Terios II J200, J210, J211 Service Manual (P/N 9708)

• Built for owners and workshops servicing the Daihatsu Terios II J2 series (J200, J210, J211). Daihatsu Manual No. 9708, published February 2006, contains 2,219 pages across 49 PDF files.
• 3SZ-VE and K3-VE engine repair covers valve-clearance adjustment, timing-chain and camshaft replacement, cylinder-head gasket work, and engine removal and installation.
• The A4Q-D1 automatic transmission section covers stall and hydraulic-pressure tests, valve-body replacement, and solenoid inspection; M5S manual transmission coverage includes unit removal and associated clutch service.
• Front and rear differential overhaul includes backlash, bearing-preload, and tooth-contact checks. The 4WD transfer section covers actuator testing, oil-seal replacement, and unit removal and installation.
• Separate ABS/EBD and ABS/TRC/VSC/BA with EBD sections provide fault isolation and test modes, supported by actuator-bleeding procedures and sensor zero-point calibration.
• Heater/A/C procedures cover heater-unit, evaporator, and compressor service, while audio sections address stereo component tuner, speaker, and antenna diagnosis and replacement.
• SRS fault diagnosis and component replacement cover driver, passenger, side, and curtain airbags, plus seat-belt pretensioners. CAN and LIN sections trace communication faults between control units.

Engine Repair and Supporting Systems

The procedures distinguish 2WD and 4WD applications, with left- and right-hand-drive differences identified where relevant. Compression testing and front and rear crankshaft oil-seal work extend the mechanical coverage beyond routine maintenance.

Fuel-system chapters cover injector testing and fuel-pump and tank replacement. Cooling-system work includes radiator, water-pump, and thermostat service; lubrication coverage adds engine oil-pressure checks and oil-pump replacement.

The camshaft timing-sprocket precautions identify a specific repair risk: forcing the sprocket against a misaligned locating pin can damage its sealing surface.

Transmission, Driveline, and Chassis Work

Automatic-transmission diagnosis includes separate 2WD/4WD shift and lockup schedules, freeze-frame data, fail-safe charts, and post-replacement learned-value initialization. The manual distinguishes that initialization from simply disconnecting the battery. Clutch work extends to pedal adjustment and hydraulic master and release cylinders.

Driveline repair is supported by front drive-shaft disassembly and axle-bearing procedures. Chassis coverage includes front strut disassembly and wheel alignment, front disc and rear drum brake service, and hydraulic steering-rack disassembly and reassembly. The non-ABS configuration has its own proportioning-valve inspection procedures.

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Overview

The manual describes cooling-performance checks using humidity and temperature measurements with a psychrometric diagram, alongside refrigerant-pressure troubleshooting and sight-glass diagnostics. The Blower Motor Circuit and Magnetic Clutch Relay Circuit support electrical fault isolation; pressure-switch and cooler-thermistor tests provide component-specific checks.

Repair coverage extends to the condenser with receiver, expansion valve, and heater-control cables. Refrigerant charging data distinguishes left- and right-hand-drive installations.

The R134a precautions explain why the specified ND-OIL 8 matters: substituting R12 compressor oil can cause inadequate lubrication and swollen rubber parts, leading to compressor lockup or refrigerant leakage.

Audio System and Electrical Diagnostics

Factory radio/CD diagnostics include service-inspection mode, display and panel-switch checks, and AVC-LAN trouble-code interpretation. Poor reception and noise troubleshooting distinguish antenna and shielding faults from radio-wave interference. The Audio System circuit diagram, stereo-unit terminal tables, and front and rear speaker checks support diagnosis before component replacement.

The EFI System (3SZ-VE, K3-VE) and CAN Communication System circuit diagrams extend that electrical coverage beyond the cabin. Diagnostic trouble-code charts, ECU terminal voltage maps, oscilloscope waveforms, data lists, and active tests support sensor, actuator, and network diagnosis.

Body electrical work includes immobilizer troubleshooting, wireless door-lock transmitter registration, and power-window initialization. Door alignment, windshield replacement, headlight aiming, and seat and trim removal provide related body repair coverage.

Workshop Specifications and Scope

Preparation tables identify the DS-II diagnostic tool (09960-97001) and application-specific equipment such as the A/T pressure-gauge adapter, SST 09325-87201. Factory reference material supplies tightening torques, lubricant and coolant capacities, pressure-test specifications, electrical test values, and inspection limits alongside exploded component views.

This is the February 2006 vehicle service publication for models manufactured from that date. Full engine bottom-end rebuilding and complete internal transmission overhaul are outside its scope. The separately referenced wiring-diagram and body-repair manuals are not included.

Reference only — always consult a certified technician before performing service, especially on refrigerant, brake, and SRS systems.
