1997–1998 Chrysler Voyager SE, LE, and LX Repair Manual (P/N P4571244)

• A 1,936-page PDF of a Chrysler factory service publication for the 1998 NS/GS Voyager application, combining carried-over 1997 NS base chapters with 1998-specific material. Body codes GSYH, GSYP, GSYS, GSCP, and GSCS identify Voyager/Grand Voyager SE FWD and LE FWD/AWD, plus Voyager LX FWD/AWD. Short- and long-wheelbase configurations, including the commercial-van body style, are identified, with dedicated RHD sections where hardware or procedures differ.
• Engine repair coverage spans the 1998-listed 2.0L SOHC, 2.4L DOHC, 2.5L VM turbo diesel, 3.3L, and 3.8L engines; the carried-over NS section also retains 3.0L engine information. Procedures include engine removal, cylinder-head and valve work, timing systems, crankshaft and bearing service, piston and liner inspection, lubrication, and cooling.
• Diesel-specific service data details the Bosch VP36 injection pump, fuel filter/water separator, instrumented No. 1 injector, glow plugs and relay, high-pressure lines, turbocharger wastegate, air-in-fuel diagnosis, air bleeding, and mechanical injection-pump timing.
• Transaxle and AWD procedures cover the A-598 five-speed manual, the A-558 five-speed used in RHD applications, the 41TE electronic automatic, and the power transfer unit. Coverage extends to removal, internal disassembly and reassembly, synchronizer and bearing inspection, valve-body and clutch repair, hydraulic pressure tests, Quick Learn, Electronic Pinion Factor, preload, and adjustment work.
• Chassis and brake repair includes McPherson struts, the suspension cradle, control arms, hubs and bearings, wheel alignment, FWD/AWD rear leaf springs, and load-leveling shocks. Brake coverage extends through Teves Mark-20 ABS, base-brake bleeding, proportioning-valve tests, rotor and drum machining, and parking-brake adjustment.
• Body and HVAC sections address sliding doors and front doors, latches, glass, seats, restraints, water-leak and wind-noise diagnosis, plus front/rear heating and air conditioning, actuator calibration, leak checking, evacuation, and R-134a charging.
• A 490-page Group 8W electrical section supplies system wiring, connector pin-outs, splice information, ground locations, and circuit-specific fault tracing. Reference material also includes component torque charts, pressure-test specifications, fluid capacities, wear limits, alignment data, electrical test values, and special-tool listings.

Component and System Documentation

Chrysler organizes the material by service group, not as a generic maintenance guide. Vehicle identification pages provide the body, engine, and transaxle codes needed to match the correct section before repair work begins. For the 1998 application, the listed engine codes are ECB, EDZ, ENC, EGA, and EGH, while DGL identifies the 41TE automatic and DD3 identifies the A-598 manual. A separate A-558 chapter addresses right-hand-drive applications, and the NS base portion retains 31TH automatic-transaxle material.

The 2.5L VM diesel chapters provide dedicated mechanical and fuel-system coverage. They cover engine removal and support, cylinder-head and gasket service, valve and seat inspection, camshaft and crankshaft work, main bearings, pistons and connecting rods, removable cylinder liners, lubrication, cooling, and diesel emission controls. Fuel-system sections explain the electronically managed Bosch pump, drive-by-wire accelerator input, injector sensing, glow operation, return circuits, filter/water-separator service, high-pressure line replacement, pump timing, and component testing.

The 41TE section combines mechanical repair with electronic and hydraulic diagnosis. It includes DRB III prechecks, road-test analysis, clutch air and hydraulic pressure tests, cooler flushing, pump-volume checks, solenoid and valve-body service, transaxle removal, centerline disassembly and reassembly, input-clutch service, differential bearing preload, and TCM learning. Detailed diagnostic trouble-code trees are referred to the companion Powertrain Diagnostic Test Procedure manual, so this PDF should not be treated as a stand-alone replacement for that separate scan-tool diagnostic publication.

Technical Reference and Specification Highlights

Illustrated material includes All Wheel Drive Rear Suspension, Non-Antilock Brakes Hydraulic Brake Tube Routing and Fitting Locations, Cooling System Operation—2.5L VM Diesel, Engine Lubrication System—SOHC, 41TE Transaxle Hydraulic Schematics, and the Group 8W Connector Pin-Outs. These views support component location, circuit tracing, assembly identification, and repair planning rather than merely illustrating basic maintenance.

Representative factory tools include VM.1000A for crankshaft pulley and gear removal, VM.1010 for liner-protrusion checks, VM.1012A for injector service, and VM.1026 engine support brackets. Suspension and brake chapters identify ball-joint tools 6758 and 6919, tie-rod-end Remover MB-991113, Pressure Test Fittings 6833, and Gauge Set C-4007-A.

The manual calls out several repair traps. The A-598 does not use conventional manual-transmission fluid or ATF; the wrong lubricant can damage bearings, gears, and synchronizers. Wheel studs must not be hammered from the hub flange because that can damage the hub/bearing assembly and lead to early bearing failure. The publication also warns that diesel injection lines can cause a serious penetration injury and that engine, transaxle, suspension, and brake work requires the specified hoist points and secure vehicle support.
