The Alignment Process
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Nissan Quest. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Information.
Refer to
"FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT (UNLADEN*1) ".
- When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use "indicators": (Green/red, plus or minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
- The alignment specifications programmed into your alignment machine that operate these indicators may not be correct.
- This may result in an ERROR.
- Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional "Rolling Compensation" method to "compensate" the sensors (alignment targets or head units). Do NOT use this "Rolling Compensation" method.
- Use the "Jacking Compensation" method. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.
- See Instructions in the alignment machine you are using for more information.
