Adjusting Values For Suspension Alignment


Adjusting values for suspension alignment - Turbo and GT2

Vehicle height

Information
^ The following values relate to the empty weight, i.e., full fuel tank, vehicle with spare wheel/collapsible wheel (not GT2) and tools, but without driver and without additional weight.
^ Turbo and GT2 (M002 and M003) up until model year 2004 are delivered with just one running gear tuning. As of model year 2004, running gear X73 (20 mm tiefer) is also available as an option.





Wheel alignment values

Warning
Warning only applies to vehicles with PSM (only 911 Turbo)! Danger of injury and damage to property due to malfunctions in the PSM control range if the steering angle sensor is not calibrated or is calibrated incorrectly!
^ Calibrate steering angle sensor with wheels in straight-ahead position with the Porsche System Tester 2!
^ The steering angle sensor actual value must be checked after a suspension alignment where no changes were made to the wheel alignment values!


Information
^ The following values relate to the empty weight, i.e., full fuel tank, vehicle with spare wheel/collapsible wheel (not GT2) and tools, but without driver and without additional weight.
^ A caster adjustment is normally not necessary and is therefore not present.
^ The toe-difference angle value is also influenced by the vehicle height! For this reason the measured result must be evaluated accordingly! No action is necessary in the case of small deviations from the toe-difference angle required value, as long as the value to the right and the left is almost the same!
