Known issues on the 1998 Combi. Think of the van as a set of systems. The engine group takes in the SOHC four-cylinder, its fuel and ignition systems and its cooling system, each with specifications and diagnostics. The driveline group, transmission and drivetrain, has its torque values. The chassis group of brakes, suspension and steering has its procedures. Wiring diagrams then tie together the electrical system of the body across the Banca and Pasillo trims.
