For body repair work, always refer to the current body repair manual. 3 Overview Introduction Opel’s Mokka takes on the sub-compact SUV segment, which is hotly contested in South Africa. Think of products like the Nissan Juke, Nissan Qashqai and Hyundai iX35. Initially, thought of as a rival to the Renault Duster and Ford EcoSport, but in reality feels and is priced like a more premium product. It comes in at a starting price of R288 500, which will get you the 1.4T Enjoy manual gearbox. The top of the range is the 1.4T Cosmo with an automatic transmission. At launch there are four models in the range with two trim levels, two gearboxes to choose from, and all are powered by the same 1.4-litre turbo engine. Apart from front-wheel drive (FWD), the Mokka can be fitted with an all-wheel drive (AWD) technology for better traction and handling. The AWD technology is efficient, clever and affordable for a wider segment of customers and is only activated on demand. The AWD system combines the advantages of improved vehicle handling, especially in bends and ensures that there is enough traction for example in the case of wheel slip. However, it also recognizes when AWD is no longer required. For example, when the vehicle is moving in a straight line on a highway, it is driving in high grip conditions with all the torque on the front wheels. This is when the vehicle is in FWD mode and good fuel economy is provided. Not only is it generously specced, it also offers good performance from a tried-and-tested engine. The Intellilink infotainment system is just superb and shows you don’t need to fork out huge amounts of money for a decent system. 4 Overview COLOURS Blaze Red Boracay Blue Carbon Flash Summit White Orange Rock Satin Steel Grey Snowflake White Switchblade Silver Velvet Red Deep Espresso Brown 5 Overview SPECIFICATIONS Mokka Enjoy Mokka Cosmo 1.4L Turbo - 103kW / 200Nm 1.4L Turbo - 103kW / 200Nm 6 Speed Manual / 6 Speed Auto 6 Speed Manual / 6 Speed Auto • Start/ Stop Engine Control (MT only) Key standard features over Enjoy: • Eco-Drive Assistance Display (MT only) • Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) • Individual Tyre Pressure Monitoring • Electronic Stability Program (ESP) • Rain Sensing Wipers • Pedal Release System • Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror • Disc Brakes, Front and Rear • Auto Headlights • Tyre Deflation Detection System • Active Beam Assist • Front/Rear Foglamps • Front and Rear Park Assist • Daytime Running Lights • Power Folding Mirrors • Headlamp Levelling • 230V Inverter • Dual Tone Hone • Sunglasses Holder • 6 Airbags • Intellilink with BT,USB,AUZ • Front Seatbelt Pre-tensioners • Reverse Camera • Seatbelt Reminders • Heated Steering Wheel • Passenger Airbag Deactivation Switch • Heated Front Seats • ISOFIX Child seat Anchors • Interior Ambient Lighting • Manual Anti-Dazzle Rear View Mirror • 18” Alloys • Cruise Control With Speed Limiter • JASMIN Leather Seat Trim • Speed Sensitive Power Steering • AGR Certified Ergonomic Seats • Steering Wheel Audio Controls • 4-Way Adjustable Passenger Seat • Radio/CD with BT,USB,AUX • Rear Split Folding Seats with Armrest • 6 Speakers • Visible Chrome Exhaust Tip • 12V Power Outlet • Tilt/ Telescopic Steering Adjustment • Driver Armrest • Electronic Climate Control and Pollution Filter • On Board Computer • Solar Absorbing Windshield • Body Colour Door Handles • Electric and Heated Side Mirrors • Power Windows – Express Up/Down • Foldable Key • Visible Chrome Exhaust Tip • 17” Alloys • Steel Spare Wheel • LINE DRIVE Black Cloth seat Trim • 4-Way Adjustable Driver Seat • 2-Way adjustable Passenger Seat • Rear Split Folding Seats • Cargo Compartment Cover • Premium Floor Mats • Turbo Badge 6 Technical Suspension Front Design features • MacPherson struts • Dual path Strut mount • Side load compensation spring • Camber adjusting bolt concept • Double bonded handling bushing • High rate Gripper type Stabilizer bushing • Six solid mounting points Crossmember Benefit • Strong and dynamic ride and handling behaviour • Solid and safe driving in different road conditions Back Design features • U-section tubular torsion beam • Rear shock behind rear wheel • Urethane inserted Shear 7 Technical Chassis Protection Kit 1) Front Strut and Spring 2) Rear Shock 3) Rear Spring 4) Protection Shield-Engine Compartment Mokka can be equipped with a Chassis Protection Kit (option XL4) to prevent vehicle damage under bad road conditions. The Chassis Protection kit consists of an additional protection shield for the engine oil pan and modified spring rates/damping characteristics. Electric Power Steering (EPS) The EPS utilizes an electric motor to provide steering assist to the driver. Major advantage of this system is the speed sensitive power steering assist as well as active steering features for precise and predictable steering feel. The EPS system is environmentally-friendly because it does not require an energy consuming hydraulic pump, hence it saves fuel and fluids that require special handling. The rake & telescope function of the EPS column allows the driver to find the individually ideal driving and seating position. 8 Technical Engine 1) Structured Aluminium Oil Pan Improves NVH behaviour / PT bending stiffness and guarantees high heat transfer 2) Torsional Vibration Damper Reduced torsional vibration improved NVH 3) Chain Drive 4) Hollow Camshaft 5) Dual-CV Cam Phaser Reduced fuel consumption, increased performance (low end torque) 6) Intake Manifold 7) 16-valve Cylinder Head Gen 2 intake ports improves performance due to increased air motion and burn rate (swirl & neutral port) 8) Oil water cooler 9) Turbo charger Intergrated design 10) Map controlled thermostat 11) Close-coupled Pre-Catalyst (Achieve Euro 4/5 emissions) 9 Technical Heating / Ventilation and Air Conditioning The new Mokka will be the first Opel vehicle which operates with the new refrigerant liquid HFO-1234 yf and it will use the Internal heat exchanger (IHX) feature.(Also known as R1234yf) 1 Condenser 2 Refrigerant lines 3 High and low side charge ports 4 Evaporator core 5 Thermostatic expansion valve 6 Fixed displacement, cycling clutch compressor 7 Receiver / dehydrator 8 Internal heat exchanger (IHX) 10 Technical Refrigerant Service Port Locations Positive-coupled, quick-connect type service ports are for AC service. The refrigerant service ports are located on the right side of the engine compartment. The service fittings are located on the refrigerant lines. The service fittings are unique to the R-1234yf system so that R-134a service equipment cannot be used. The service caps for the R-1234yf system are grey, whereas R-134a caps are black. 1 - High pressure service port 2 - Low pressure service port FAQ’s concerning R134a and R1234yf Are there differences in the service couplings for R1234yf and R134a? The vehicle-side filling valves of a R1234yf air conditioning system are geometrically different from those of a R134a system. A R1234yf air conditioning service unit therefore has different service couplings than the R134a unit. Can you fill a R1234yf air conditioning system with R134a? No, this is not permitted by law. Mixing of the refrigerant must be avoided. In addition, the components of a R1234yf air conditioning unit are specifically designed and released for this new refrigerant. Should however, R1234yf and R134a be mixed in the workshop, the resulting refrigerant mixture must be professionally removed from the vehicle air conditioning unit and disposed of. The disposal shall be performed by the gas supplier or a suitable disposal facility. 11 Technical When Handling refrigerants, which occupational health and safety aspects have to be observed? The key measure for ensuring occupational health and safety during handling of both R134a and R1234yf is the use of personal protective equipment as specified in the risk assessment, that is, for instance, long sleeved work clothes, leather gloves and safety goggles. Common characteristics of R134a and R1234yf: R134a and R1234yf are gases liquefiable in vehicle air conditioning systems. The vapours are heavier than air and will settle under atmospheric conditions. The thermodynamic properties of R134a and R1234yf are similar. Both materials are fluorocarbons (FC). Both materials are toxicologically safe. As the Opel Mokka is the first GM vehicle introduced in South Africa which uses the new R1234yf refrigerant, and can only be serviced with all new Air conditioning equipment, GM South Africa has funded and placed 6 of these new Air conditioning Recovery Recycling Recharging units at selected Dealer Service centres across South Africa (R1234yf Air Conditioning Repair Centres) This equipment may be purchased by any dealers/repairers, and therefore we expect that more R1234yf Air Conditioning Repair centres will become available in due course.
