Vehicle Transverse Inclination, Zero Position






Vehicle Transverse Inclination, Zero Position

If the measured values are outside the allowed tolerances, the cause may be an incorrect vehicle attitude.








Vehicles with automatic transmission can lean to one side slightly.

This is due to the installation position of the assemblies and the corresponding weight transfer and is normal.

- It is absolutely necessary to measure dimension - a - on left and right sides.

- Correct any differences if necessary.

It is possible to correct trim height imbalance for front axle by adding weight to top of strut tower through the engine compartment.

To correct trim height imbalance for rear axle add weight to top of strut tower through the trunk compartment.

For example, sand bags of approximately 10 kg are suitable as weights.
