Valve Block to Rear Stabilizer Bar Actuator Pipe AssemblyRemoval
CAUTION: Dynamic Response system components are manufactured to very precise tolerances. It is therefore essential that absolute cleanliness is observed when working with these components. Always install blanking plugs to any open orifices or lines. Failure to follow this instruction may result in foreign matter ingress to the Dynamic Response system.
NOTE: The valve block seals do not require replacement unless there is evidence of a fluid leak.
1. WARNING: Do not work on or under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always support the vehicle on safety stands.
Raise and support the vehicle.
