Steering Angle Differs between Left and Right [08/2014 - ]: Procedure

1. Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock at a speed of approximately 90°/sec. Check the steering wheel angles between the left and right.
   RESULT
   
   

   Result	Proceed to
   The steering wheel is off-center	A
   The steering wheel is centered	B

   HINT: 

   If turning the steering wheel quickly while driving at low speeds, the steering angle may differ between the left and right, or the steering wheel may become off-center. However, this is not a malfunction.

B → VGRS SYSTEM IS NORMAL 

A: Go to next step 

1. Start the engine.
2. Turn the steering wheel.
3. Measure the steering effort.

   Standard steering effort

   Below 6.9 N*m (70 kgf*cm, 61 in.*lbf)

   HINT: 

   After completing the inspection or repair, attempt to simulate the problem and then read the Data List again to confirm that the problem does not occur.

OK: Go to next step 

1. Check wheel alignment for the front. Refer to ADJUSTMENT [08/2014 - ] .

   OK

   The wheel alignment is normal.

   HINT: 

   Adjust the tie-rod ends within the specified values so that the tire angles are the same between the left and right when the steering wheel is turned from lock to lock.
