INFORMATION
Enclosed with this Technical Information, you also receive an advance copy of the modified adjustment values for front-axle alignment for the Cayenne Technical Manual, Group 4, "Repairs". These adjustment values replace all other previously published specifications.
New - A "control value" has been included for front-axle alignment.
Explanation: Based on the settling behavior of the vehicle, a "control value" for track adjustment on the front axle is introduced in addition to the usual "adjustment values" for suspension alignment.
The upper tolerance limit of the control value is higher than the upper tolerance limit of the adjustment value.
Track adjustment is only performed if the tolerance limit of the control value is not reached or is exceeded on the vehicle.
Wheel alignment should not be performed until the new vehicle has 120 miles (200 km) on the odometer. This is due to the fact that the settling behavior of the Cayenne suspension is not complete after this distance. For further information on vehicle alignment, please refer to the enclosed attachments.
