Rear Wheel Alignment: Inspection: Inspection
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:
- Perform zero point calibration of the yaw rate and acceleration sensor and test mode inspection.
- INSPECT TIRES
Refer to INSPECTION .
- MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT See step 2
- INSPECT CAMBER NOTE:
Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.
- Install a camber-caster-kingpin gauge.
- Inspect the camber.
Camber (Unloaded Vehicle)
Tire Size Camber Inclination Right-left Difference 195/65R15 -1°29' +/- 30' (-1.48° +/- 0.50°) 30' (0.50°) or less 215/45R17 -1°28' +/- 30' (-1.47° +/- 0.50°) 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.
- INSPECT TOE-IN NOTE:
Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.
- Bounce the vehicle up and down at the corners to stabilize the suspension.
- Release the parking brake and move the shift lever to N.
- Push the vehicle straight ahead approximately 5 m (16.4 ft.). (Step A)
- Put tread center marks on the rearmost points of the rear wheels and measure the distance between the marks (dimension B).

TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*1 Front of the Vehicle *2 Tread Center Mark *3 Dimension B - Slowly push the vehicle straight ahead to cause the rear wheels to rotate 180° using the rear tire valve as a reference point.
HINT:
Do not allow the wheels to rotate more than 180°. If the wheels rotate more than 180°, perform the procedure from Step A again.
- Measure the distance between the tread center marks on the front side of the wheels (dimension A).TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

HINT:
Measure "B - A" only when "C + D" cannot be measured.
If the toe-in is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts and replace them if necessary.
