Chevrolet Lumina
General
The overall design of the Lunina is focused on the theme of poise and stance. The positioning of the four wheels closer to the corners give it an authoritative stand. Its visual strength
lies in the bold body-to-glass proportions; balancing dynamic form and design elements, giving the perception that the car is smaller. Minimised gaps and margins result in visibly
greater quality, fit and finish. Subtle sporting details such as fender belts and dual exhaust
outlets pay tribute to the manufacturer's motorsport heritage.
The interior themes revolve around function, luxury and performance conveying the sports
car cockpit effect. A fresh looking interior is of superior standards with impeccable quality.
To minimise distraction the controls have been intelligently designed so that the primary
information is placed in front of the driver in a display within the instrument cluster.
The Lumina also sports red illumination with sport instrumentation complimented by a high
mounted auxiliary display above the centre vents.
The colour and trim of the Lumina SS comprises of carefully selected finishes materials and
textures with lasting charm. The soft trim makes use of fabric leather and carpet with new
grain textures that enhance surface vision and touch with emphasis on quality. Modern fine
metallic paints define smooth surfaces, while the jewelled modern satin chrome highlights
demonstrate functionality and purpose.
Supple and luxurious, perforated leather constructions give the seat and door trim added
class while the new seats allow greater flexibility and comfort.

Safety
Unequalled safety: Lumina’s advanced safety system implements a range of active and passive safety features. ABS is standard and is accompanied by the advanced Electronic Brake
Assist and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution systems, ensuring braking distances are minimized in panic situations. Lumina has a reinforced safety cell and body structure with front
and rear crumple zones. Dual-stage frontal airbags, seatbelt pretensioners and force-limiting
belts surround occupants with state-of-the-art safety.
Active safety: Up to 200 times a second – that’s how often Lumina’s active safety systems
monitor on-road dynamics. Everything from the vehicle’s speed, lateral acceleration and
rotation, to the steering wheel angle and brakeforce you apply. When normal tolerances are
exceeded, counter-measures are initiated to help ensure you always have maximum control
of the vehicle.
Passive safety: A collision is a contest between impact energy and your vehicle’s safety
features. You want everything possible on your side. That’s why Lumina features an Adaptive Occupant Restraint System. Most impressive of all, in a frontal crash, Lumina can automatically initiate and co-ordinate all on-board passive safety measures in an incredible 90
milliseconds – about the time it takes to snap your fingers.
Introduction to VE
The new range of VE series vehicles represents the most significant changes that this
model line has seen in the last decade. The body shell , steering, suspension and braking
systems have been completely redesigned. The electrical architecture has been revised with
a large increase in the number of control modules.

Drive Line
Rear differential
The rear differential is a ZF unit with an aluminium housing.The differential assembly is a cast
aluminium two-piece housing design. The differential is mounted to the rear suspension assembly by three rubber mounts, one either side of the piion flange at the front and the third at the
rear of the housing.
Note: In service, VE rear differentials will be replaced as a complete unit initially but become
repairable once a procedure and tooling is available.
Propeller Shaft
The propeller shaft is a two piece tube supported by a sealed for life centre bearing and nonservicable universal joint. It has a rubber coupling at each end joining the propeller shaft to the
transmission and the differential. All propeller shafts are fixed to the rubber couplings by 3 bolts
and 3 micro-encapsulated nuts which are discarded when removed.The rubber couplings are
then mounted to the differential with 3 bolts and the transmission with 3 bolts and 3 microencapsulated nuts which are also dicarded when removed.
Drive shafts
The drive shaft assemblies are flexible assemblies consisting of an inner and outer constant
velocity joint connected by an axle shaft.The outer constant velocity joint is secured to the
wheel/hub assembly with a locking nut.The nut must be peened over onto the flat of the outer
constant velocity joint to secure. The nut is discarded after removal.
Steering
The VE steering system has been redesigned with the following changes:
●
Forward of the front axle centreline and rigidly mounted
●
Variable ratio (15%change)
●
Power steering cooler in lower condenser tube
●

Electrical
The Chevrolet Lumina uses three seperate fuse boxes, in the engine compartment, left side of
passenger footwell and in the trunk. The battery is also located in the trunk. With the UTE the
battery is situated in the cabin behind the passenger seat.To prevent explosive and potentially
harmfull gases from entering the passenger compartment, the battery is fitted with an external
ventilation tube, which carries gases to the outside. Replacement battery must incorporate the
external ventilation tube feature.
There are jump start points in the engine compartment for easy access. They are located on the
left side of the engine compartment.
Important: Do not use the Positive terminal at the fuse box for jump starting.

Body
Crumple Zone and Occupant Safety Cell
In frontal collisions, two separate parts of the body structure perform different functions.
The front is designed to act as a crumple zone, managing and absorbing crash energy by
collapsing in a controlled manner, so that the impact affects the car and not the occupants.
Vehicle occupants are further protected by a strongly constructed and reinforced passenger
safety cell which has been engineered to withstand high energy crash loads.
Advanced side structure design reduces the risk of serious head and neck injury in a side
impact crash. The central side (B) pillar is designed to deform in a certain way when
impacted, changing and reducing the impact velocity profile and directing energy away from
the fragile upper body. Energy-absorbing foam between the door trim and the door structure
absorbs and dissipates energy from pelvis contact in a lateral collision. The door trim profile
is shaped to minimise localised loading into an occupant’s torso.

Chevrolet Lumina
TRAINING
Lumina’s advanced body structure design, with its
rigid passenger cell and defined deformation zones and side impact protection,
makes an essential contribution to the minimisation of injury risks in frontal, side
and rear impact collisions.
Front Structure
For optimum occupant protection, a front structure must incorporate three
competing characteristics.
1. An initially ‘soft’ structure – needed to keep crash forces on occupants as
low as possible in low speed collisions, which are the most frequent.
2. A stiffer structure – needed to absorb the energy of high speed crashes with
minimum risk to occupants.
3. A structure which is not aggressive towards other vehicles.
Designed for real world angled and offset crashes, the front structure of the Lumina is highly
efficient at absorbing crash energy. Crush initiators promote a smooth, continuous collapse
of the angled frames, which are connected by a large front suspension crossmember with a
breakaway feature for greater energy absorption.
Passenger Cell Structure
A very rigid, strong cabin structure is designed to manage extreme crash energy
loading without compromising occupant survival space.
Side Structure
The side structure is designed to offer improved energy management in real world car, truck
and pole collisions, increasing protection from the risk of head, neck and chest injury.
A substantial, closed section of roof frame and full length A (front) and
B (centre) pillar reinforcements form part of a continuous frame right around the
doors; floor and roof frames provide lateral load paths to manage crash energy.
The B pillar is designed to deform in a certain way when impacted, which
produces an impact velocity profile that is designed to direct energy away from
the fragile upper body. A conventional B pillar folds in the middle on impact,
directing impact velocity at the occupant’s most fragile areas: the head, neck
and chest.Lumina’s B pillar is designed to ‘swing’ with a pendulum effect,
so that the impact velocity profile is reduced at areas of high injury risk and
directed towards the seat and the less vulnerable lower third of the body.

The transmission support is rigidly bolted to the floor pan and supports the transmission
extension.
The underbody frames must be properly aligned to maintain the correct transmission, suspension and wheel alignment.
Important: In the event there is evidence of structural damage to the frames they must be
replaced.
The individual underbody components contribute directly to the overall strength of the unibody. Use proper metal panel bonding techniques during service repair operations to the
underbody. Refer to Metal Panel Bonding for metal panel bonding information and for vehicle
preparation.
The components must be corrosion protected whenever body repair operations damage or
destroy the original sealing surfaces. Use a two part catalysed primer when corrosion protection is needed to welded surfaces. Apply the sealers and anti-corrosion materials as necessary. Refer to Anti-Corrosion Treatment and Repair. Do not combine paint systems. Refer to
Basecoat/Clearcoat Paint Systems, for further information.

Occupant Protection
Seat Belts
The seat belt remains the basis for occupant protection across the Chevrolet
Lumina range. Front seat belts are fitted with load limiters and pyrotechnic
buckle pre-tensioners. At a given force, the load limiter will release seat belt webbing in a controlled manner, reducing the pressure acting on an occupant’s chest. In a moderately severe
impact, pyrotechnic buckle pre-tensioners will ignite a small explosive
charge which pulls the belt buckle downwards to take up any ‘belt slack’,
minimising forward movement by the seat occupants. If the crash is severe,
depending on collision circumstances, airbags will also deploy.
Seat belt buckles are mounted on the seats to ensure that belt geometry
remains correct regardless of seat position. Some models also feature height
adjustable upper seat belt anchorages, which can be set to ensure the belt
geometry is correct for the size of the occupant. Three lap/sash rear seat belts
are standard fitment across the Lumina range.
Research data indicates a two-thirds injury risk reduction with the use
of a lap/sash belt.
Head Restraints
Monash University Accident Research Centre data verifies that padded front
and rear seat head restraints with height adjustment help to reduce the risk
of head and ‘whiplash’ neck injury.
Seat Structures
Front and rear seat structures are shaped to support occupants in a crash
and prevent small occupants in particular from ‘submarining’, or sliding
under the lap section of the seat belt.
Driver, Passenger and Side Impact Airbags
Designed to protect in real world collisions in the modern traffic environment,
Chevrolet’s technologically advanced airbags are an integral part of Lumina’s safety technology. They offer world’s best practice in non-aggressive occupant
protection and are effective in reducing head, neck and chest injuries to front
seat occupants of all sizes and ages, in all seating positions, in severe frontal,
frontal offset, angled and side impact collisions.

Chevrolet Lumina
Airbags
Background
Head injury accounts for 70 per cent of road fatalities. If a crash victim survives a serious chest
injury, he or she can generally expect a full recovery. Brain and neck injuries are different; many
people never fully recover. The cost to sufferers and to the community of long-term and irrecoverable brain and neck injury is tragically high.
The prevention of head and neck injury is, therefore, a major focus of Chevrolet safety development. Since 1990, Chevrolet has conducted a national field accident research program in conjunction with the Monash University Accident Research Centre (MUARC).
Data analysis from this ongoing program allows Chevrolet to identify safety priorities and design
protective measures accordingly. It also offers conclusive evidence that Chevrolet airbags are
responsible for significant and lifesaving reductions in the incidence of facial, head, neck and chest
injuries.
Lumina’s driver and passenger airbag system was developed expressly to help reduce the risk of
head, facial and chest injury caused by contact with the steering wheel and dashboard in severe
frontal collisions. The seat-mounted side impact airbag (SIAB) system was developed to help protect against head, neck and chest injury in lateral collisions. Research shows that the side airbag
reduces the risk of head and chest injury by 63 per cent and 56 per cent respectively.
In a collision, vehicle occupants will have differing protection requirements, epending on their size,
gender and age. The same minor crash that bruises a 20 year-old can be life-threatening to a 60
year-old, because our bones become more fragile as we age (bone strength halves from the ages
of 20 to 40, then halves again by 65). Small-statured people face bigger risks, and babies and
children need special protection. It has also been established that females, because of their generally smaller stature and more fragile necks, are 50 per cent more likely to suffer neck injuries, and
they are up to 100 per cent more at risk of being injured in a side impact crash than male occupants.
Driver and Passenger Airbag Performance
Chevrolet has optimised the performance of its driver and passenger airbags to suit seatbelt-wearing occupants. This means that Lumina airbags will not deploy in collision situations where seatbelts provide sufficient protection, or situations where airbags cannot contribute to occupant
protection.
The airbags will deploy in the case of a severe frontal or offset frontal collision that carries a high
injury risk. TheChevrolet airbag features a ‘soft’, non-aggressive inflation onset. Its unique E-fold
pattern and interior tethers cause it to inflate with a flat surface, eliminating the risk of it catching
under the chin and causing neck injury.

Upon occupant contact, the airbags immediately begin to
deflate. Their large area evenly distributes energy loads on the
head and chest, significantly reducing risks of severe injury.
Following airbag deployment, side or frontal, the Body Control Module will turn off the engine and fuel pump, unlock doors and
turn the interior light on, if battery power remains available.
Repairs and Inspections Required after a collision
Important: After any collision, inspect the following components as indicated. If you detect any
damage, replace the component. If you detect any damage to the mounting points or mounting
hardware, repair the component or replace the hardware as needed.
●
The Instrument panel area- inspect for bending, twisting, buckling etc.
●
The steering column, inspect for excessive movement(check for shear capsule seperation)
●
The seat belts
●
The Instrument panel mounting points and brackets
●
The seats and seat mounting points
Before working on the restraint system the vehicle battery needs to be disconnected. There is a two minute
waiting period before work can continue on the SRS.

Sensor Replacement Guidelines
Important: The SIR front/side air bag sensor replacement policy requires replacing sensors in the
area of accident damage. The area of accident damage is defined as the portion of the vehicle
which is crushed, bent, or damaged due to a collision. An example of this would be a moderate
collision where the front of the vehicle impacts a tree. The SIR front sensor must be replaced.
●
Replace the sensor whether or not the airbags have deployed.
●
Replace the sensor even if it appears to be undamaged.
Important: Sensor damage which is not visible, such as slight bending of the mounting bracket or
cuts in the wire insulation, can cause improper operation of the SIR/side air bag sensing system.
Do not try to determine whether the sensor is undamaged. Replace the sensor. Also, if you follow
a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) table and a malfunctioning sensor is indicated, replace the sensor.

SDM
The sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) is a microprocessor and the control center for the
Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) System. The SDM contains internal sensors along with
several external sensors, if equipped, mounted at various locations on the vehicle. In the event
of a collision, the SDM performs calculations using the signals received from the internal and
external sensors. The SDM compares the results of the calculations to values stored in memory.
When these calculations exceed the stored value, the SDM will cause current to flow through
the appropriate deployment loops to deploy the air bags.
PPS
The PPS is used to monitor the weight of an occupant on the front outboard passenger seat and
communicate the status to the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) whether to enable or suppress the deployment of the instrument panel (I/P) module. The PPS consist of an electronic
control module, silicone filled sensor pad, pressure sensor, seat belt tension sensor, wiring harness, and PASSENGER AIR BAG ON/OFF indicators. The silicone filled sensor pad is located
under the passenger seat foam cushion. The weight of the occupant sitting in the front passenger seat is measured as a pressure change within the bladder by the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor sends a voltage signal to the PPS module. If the pressure from the occupants weight
is less than a specified value, the PPS module will send a suppress signal to the SDM to disable
the I/P module. If the pressure from the occupants weight is higher than a specified value, the
PPS module will send an enable signal to the SDM to enable the I/P module. The PPS module
will notify the customer of the enable/disable status by turning on one of the PASSENGER AIR
BAG ON/OFF indicators located on the instrument panel.

TRAINING
Hummer
SPS
The seat position sensor (SPS) is used to determine the proximity of a front driver or passenger
seat position with respect to the frontal air bag. The SPS interfaces with the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM). The state of the SPS allows the SDM to disable stage 2 of the frontal air
bag for a front seat that is forward of a forward/rearward point in seat track travel. The SPS is a
Hall effect sensor that is mounted on the outboard seat track of both the driver and passenger
seats. The seat track includes a metal bracket that shunts the SPS magnetic circuit creating two
states of seat position.Its important to understand that the SPS is secondary to the passenger
presence system (PPS) in the disable mode the passenger air bag will not deploy regardless of
the SPS status.
Inflatable Restraint Seat Belt Passenger Sensor
The seat belt tension sensor is used to enhance the Passenger Presence System (PPS) when an
infant car seat is properly restrained on the front outboard passenger seat. The seat belt tension
sensor is a 3-wire potentiometer mounted on the lower seat belt anchor and provides an input to
the PPS module. When an infant car seat is properly restrained on the front passenger seat, the
seat belt is tightly secured through the infant car seat. The seat belt pulls on the tension sensor
and changes the voltage signal to the PPS module. The PPS module uses the voltage signal to
help determine if a tightly belted infant car seat is installed. The PPS uses the inputs from the
seat belt tension sensor and the PPS pressure sensor to determine if the instrument panel (I/P)
module should be suppressed or enabled.
Inflatable Restraint Vehicle Rollover sensor
The vehicle rollover sensor is used to supplement the side Supplemental Inflatable Restraint
(SIR) System. The sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) uses the input from the vehicle rollover
sensor to assist in determining the severity of a vehicle rollover or near rollover condition. If the
SDM determines a deployment is warranted, the SDM will send a signal for the curtain airbags
to deploy.
Airbag Indicator
The AIR BAG indicator, located on the instrument panel cluster (IPC) is used to notify the driver
of Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) System malfunctions and to verify that the sensing
and diagnostic module (SDM) is communicating with the IPC.

TRAINING
Passenger Air Bag ON/OFF Indicators
The PASSENGER AIR BAG ON/OFF indicators located on the instrument panel are used to notify
the driver when the Passenger Presence System (PPS) has enabled or disabled the instrument
panel (I/P) inflator module.
Dual Stage Inflator Modules
Dual stage inflator modules contain a housing, inflatable air bag, 2 initiating devices, canister of
gas generating material and, in some cases, stored compressed gas. The 2 initiators are part of
the inflator module deployment loop. The inflator modules have 2 stages of deployment, which
varies the amount of restraint to the occupant according to the collision severity. For moderate
frontal collisions the inflator modules deploy at less than full deployment which consists of stage
1 of the inflator module. For more severe frontal collisions a full deployment is initiated which
consists of stage 1 and stage 2 of the inflator module.
Steering Wheel Coil
The steering wheel module coil is attached to the steering column and is located under the steering wheel. The steering wheel module coil consists of 2 or more current-carrying coils. The coils
allow the rotation of the steering wheel while maintaining continuous electrical contact between
the driver airbag and steering column.
Front End Sensors
The front end sensors are electronic and provide inputs to the sensing and diagnostic module
(SDM).
Wiring Harness
The wiring harnesses connect the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM), inflator modules, Passenger Presence System (PPS), front end sensors, seat position sensors (SPS), passenger seat
belt tension retractor sensor, and the serial data circuit together using weather pack connectors.
Seat Belt Pretensioner
The seat belt pretensioner consist of a housing, a seat belt retractor, the seat belt webbing, an
initiator, and a canister of gas generating materials. When the vehicle is involved in a collision of
sufficient force, the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) causes current to flow through the
seat belt deployment loops to the initiator. Current passing through the initiator ignites the material in the canister producing a rapid generation of gas. The gas produced from this reaction
deploys the seat belt pretensioner and retracts the seat belt webbing, which removes all of the
slack in the seat belts. Depending on the severity of the collision, the seat belt pretensioner may
deploy without the frontal inflator modules deploying, or they will deploy immediately before the
frontal inflator modules deploy.

Steering Wheel and Column
The steering wheel and column are designed to absorb energy when driver contact is made with the steering
wheel or inflated air bag. In a frontal collision the driver may contact the steering wheel directly or load the
steering wheel and column through the inflated air bag. When the driver applies load to the air bag or steering
wheel the column will compress downward absorbing some of the impact, helping to reduce bodily injuries to
the driver. The steering wheel and column must be inspected for damage after a collision.
Driver and Passenger Knee Bolsters
The knee bolsters are designed to help restrain the lower torsos of front seat occupants by
absorbing energy through the front seat occupants upper legs. In a frontal collision the front seat
occupants legs may come in contact with the knee bolsters. The knee bolsters are designed to
crush or deform absorbing some of the impact, which helps to reduce bodily injuries. The driver
and passenger knee bolsters are located in the lower part of the instrument panel and must be
inspected for damage after a collision.

Saab 9-3
Introduction
Saab's new 9-3 range, has been expanded to eight and includes sedans, convertibles and – for
the first time in this market – a station wagon, the five-door SportCombi.
Each has new front styling with a wing motif in the centre of the grille and a strong, curved
line around the front of the clamshell bonnet drawn from the company's heritage as an aircraft manufacturer.
Saab 9-3 buyers can now choose from four turbocharged and intercooled engines, starting
with a two-litre LPT engine that produces a claimed 110kW at 5500rpm and 240Nm at
2000rpm but only in a sedan.An uprated version, the 2.0T Linear for which Saab quotes
129kW at 5500rpm and 265Nm at 2500rpm, is available in the convertible with a choice fivespeed manual or semi-auto transmission, or in the SportCombi as a semi-auto only.The twolitre engine has been boosted further, to 154kW at 5300rpm and 300Nm at 2500, for the Vector sedan, also only with a semi-auto.The top-of-the-range Aero sedan and convertible models are fitted with a 2.8-litre V6 capable of 184kW at 5500rpm and 350Nm at 2000rpm and
driving through a six-speed semi-auto transmission.
There's also a 1.9-litre, common-rail injection diesel with a variable-nozzle turbo for the
sedan; it's rated at 110kW at 4000rpm and 320Nm at 2000rpm.
Saab has designed the new 9-3 "from the driver outwards". The main instrument panel, for
example, curves in front of the driver and a wide range of functions can be set to personal
preferences, including the dual-zone auto aircon.

TRAINING
Cadillac/Saab Body
Among the characteristic elements of the Saab 9-3 Sport Sedan's body are high torsional rigidty,
a sturdy and stable cabin enclosure, generous front and rear deformation zones and very effective
side impact protection.
The body of the Saab 9-3 Sport Sedan is constructed to create a survival zone for the driver and all
passengers in the event of a collision. The large front deformation zones are designed to create a
stable and robust deformation characteristics.
The central member distributes the force to a large surface. The front structure has three load
routes per side. These load routes are linked together via crossmembers to distribute the force.
The most important component in the event of a side impact is the B-pillar, which is designed to
make use of the "pendulum effect". The B-pillar is extremely stiff in the middle and slightly softer
in its upper and lower sections. This results in the B-pillar acting as a pendulum and distributing
forces via the sill into the car. The front doors have angled door members that direct the forces
into the B-pillar and intensify the pendulum effect. Because of the powerful design of the B-pillar
and the pendulum effect, a greater portion of the force is directed towards the lower midsection of
the body instead of the softer areas at chest height.

TRAINING
Cadillac/Saab
It is of great importance that the characteristics of the energy-absorbing deformation zones and the
stabile cabin enclosure are not impaired or changed if the body is repaired. The cabin enclosure must
never be weaker after a repair. At the same time, the deformation zones must never be made stronger than they were before the damage was done. If the front or rear is too strong, it will intensify the
forces instead of retarding them, which, in turn, will increase the strain on the passengers.
Body Reinforcements
The body is reinforced in the areas that are most vulnerable in the event of a collision. These reinforcements are manufactured with high-strength steel.
