D

YES - Go to ENGINE REPLACEMENT VERIFICATION PROCEDURE.

D

NO - Repair is complete. Return vehicle to customer.

C. ENGINE REPLACEMENT VERIFICATION PROCEDURE (Only if Engine Knocking Noise
Is Reported)
If customer has reported engine noise, follow the steps below to confirm the noise, then create a video
recording of the noise, open a Techline case, and attach the recording file to the Techline case.

"

"

1. Start the engine, and let idle.
D

If no knocking noise is heard, go to step 2.

D

If a knocking noise is heard, go to step 3.

2. Put selector lever in D position, apply the emergency brake and service brake, and raise engine speed
gradually to 1,500 RPM.
D

If a knocking noise is heard, go to step 3.

D

If engine noise is normal, do NOT replace the engine. Return vehicle to customer.

"

3. Create a Techline case.

"

4. Open the hood, and keep the engine running at idle. If noise is only heard at 1,500 RPM, have a second
person in driver's seat gradually increase engine speed to 1,500 RPM during the recording.

"

5. Using a video recording device (smartphone, camera, etc.), start the video recording by clearly filming
the VIN on the FMVSS Label on the B-Pillar. Then stand near the open hood, and record the knocking
noise, for approximately 5 seconds.

"

NOTE: To keep file size more manageable, total filming time should be less than 10 seconds. File size may be
reduced by adjusting video recording resolution to a lower setting, or by using a video compression
software on your PC (such as Microsoft Movie Maker, Wondershare Video Converter, etc.).

6. Save the video recording with the following naming convention: the last 8 digits of the VIN AND the
Techline case number (for example: EH004169_187621.mp4).

"

7. Attach the video file to the Techline case using the instructions below.

"

From MEDIC: Copy the video file to a flash drive and connect to the USB port of the
Toughbook/Toughpad.

D

From any device other than MEDIC: Copy the video file to the hard drive of the PC (or a flash
drive may be used if desired).
b. Navigate to the Techline System (through MDL).

"

a. Download the video file to the device you will be accessing the Techline System from:

Click on the Attachment icon (paper clip).
NOTE: This icon is only available when a Techline case
is NOT closed.
NOTE: Current Techline video file size limit for
attachments is 25 MB.

c. A pop-up window will open. Click on Browse
to find the file you want to attach.

"

d. Navigate to the location of the video file, select it,
