Rear Wheel Alignment

SUSPENSION: REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT: ADJUSTMENT

NOTICE:
If the wheel alignment has been adjusted, and if suspension or underbody components have been removed/installed or replaced, be sure to perform the following initialization procedure in order for the system to function normally:

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal for more than 2 seconds.
(b) Reconnect the cable to the negative battery terminal.
(c) Perform zero point calibration of the yaw rate and acceleration sensor and test mode inspection.

Calibration

1. INSPECT TIRES

(a) Inspect the tires Component Tests and General Diagnostics.

2. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT Front Wheel Alignment

3. INSPECT TOE-IN





Toe-in:





If toe-in is not within the specified range, adjust it at the rear No. 2 suspension arms.

HINT
Measure "B - A" only when "C + D" cannot be measured.

4. ADJUST TOE-IN

(a) Measure the distance between each wheel disc and the center of the toe-adjusting cam, and then confirm that left and right distances are the same.





Left-right difference:

1.0 mm (0.04 in.) or less

If the left-right difference is larger than 1.0 mm (0.04 in.), adjust it by following the procedures below.

(b) Loosen the toe-adjust cam set nuts.

(c) Turn the adjust cams by an equal amount to adjust toe-in.

HINT
* Try to adjust toe-in to the center of the specified range.
* The toe-in will change by the following amount corresponding to each graduation of the cam.
Approx. 3.3 mm (0.13 in.)

(d) Tighten the toe-adjust cam set nuts.

Torque : 100 Nm (1019 kgf-cm, 74 ft-lbf)

5. INSPECT CAMBER





HINT
Camber is not adjustable. If the measurement is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts for damage and/or wear, and replace them if necessary.

6. PLACE FRONT WHEELS FACING STRAIGHT AHEAD

7. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

NOTICE:
When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Repair Instruction - Initialization.

HINT
Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal for more than 2 seconds.

8. CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

NOTICE:
When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Repair Instruction - Initialization.

9. PERFORM YAW RATE SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION

HINT
Perform yaw rate sensor zero point calibration Calibration.

10. CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR ZERO POINT CALIBRATION

HINT
Check steering angle sensor zero point calibration C1290.
