GREASE LEAKS AND DAMAGE)
M1001003600501
1. These components, which are permanently lubricated at the
factory, do not require periodic lubrication. Damaged seals
and boots should be replaced to prevent leakage or grease
contamination.
2. Inspect the boots for proper sealing, leakage and damage.
Replace them if defective.

Tightening torque: 32
± 2 N⋅m (23 ± 2 ft-lb)
22. TIRES (ROTATE)
M1001008900530
Rotate tires regularly to equalize tire wear and help extend tire
life. Recommended tire rotation is every 12,000 km (7,500
miles).
Timing for the rotation may vary according to vehicle condition,
road surface conditions, and individual driver's habits.
When rotating tires, check for uneven wear, damage, and
wheel alignment. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect
tire pressure, improper wheel alignment, out-of balance
wheels, or severe braking.
The first rotation is the most important, to achieve more uniform
wear for all tires on the vehicle.
