Feedback Corner
This week's feedback is from James regarding a 2010 Routan Repair Manual. He stated:
"The repair manual states “Remove the nut (1) that secures the underbody refrigerant extension
lines (3) and the sealing plate (4) to the rear A/C expansion valve (1)"at the start of removal
for the rear HVAC housing, it should state “Remove the nut (2) that secures the underbody
refrigerant extension lines (3) and the sealing plate (4) to the rear A/C expansion valve (1).""
The Service Information Team reviewed the feedback and was verified that the technician was

correct and the Repair Manual was updated. James included his full name and email address
with the feedback and will receive AudieBay logo Winner's Circle Rewards for helping improve the quality
of the repair information.

Plastic manufacturing burrs and debris may build up in the seal area of the oil filter housing. This
may prevent a proper seal when installed and result in an oil leak.
17-12-07 - Possible Oil Leak after Oil Filter Change (2029091)

Due to the mounting design of the engine oil cooler, it is possible for the oil cooler to become loose
during an oil service. If this happens, an oil leak may occur between the oil cooler and the oil filter
adaptor housing. This condition can be corrected by tightening the oil cooler mounting nut. DO
NOT replace any parts for this condition.

24-12-10 - MIL- ON Sporadic Intake Air Faults (2031855)

Completion of the MAF sensor (G70) function test is important to ensure proper diagnosis. Sporadic
faults can be caused from loose wiring connections, unsecure terminals, corrosion or damaged
wires
24-12-09 - Verifying Fuel Injector Replacement (2032174)

replacement. Misfire code P0300 — random/multiple cylinder misfire is not probable cause to
replace all fuel injectors. The misfiring cylinder will always accompany a P0300 fault.
