  3. INSPECT TOE-IN

    A0058TZE15
    Standard Toe-in (Unloaded Vehicle)
    for Sedan
    Destination Standard Toe-in
    except Rough Road Package 2 B - A: 1.7 +/-2 mm (0.07 +/-0.08 in.)
    Rough Road Package 2 B - A: 0.6 +/-2 mm (0.02 +/-0.08 in.)
    Standard Toe-in (Unloaded Vehicle)
    for Wagon
    Item Standard Toe-in
    Toe-in B - A: 1.9 +/-2 mm (0.07 +/-0.08in.)

    If the toe-in is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts and replace them if necessary.

  4. ADJUST TOE-IN


    1. A0057MD

      Loosen the nut of the rear No. 1 suspension arm assembly (at the rear suspension member side).

      Note

      Hold the rear suspension toe adjust cam sub-assembly while rotating the nut.

    2. A0057WH

      Rotate the rear suspension toe adjust cam sub-assembly to adjust the toe-in.

      Adjustment Value
      for Sedan
      Destination Standard Toe-in
      except Rough Road Package 2 B - A: 1.7 +/-1 mm (0.07 +/-0.04 in.)
      Rough Road Package 2 B - A: 0.6 +/-1 mm (0.02 +/-0.04 in.)
      for Wagon
      Item Standard Toe-in
      Toe-in B - A: 1.9 +/-1 mm (0.07 +/-0.04in.)

      Tech Tips

      Rotating the rear suspension toe adjust cam sub-assembly by one notch changes the toe by approximately 3.4 mm (0.134 in.).

    3. A0057MD

      Tighten the nut of the rear No. 1 suspension arm assembly (at the rear suspension member side).

      Torque:
      100 N*m  { 1020 kgf*cm, 74 ft.*lbf }

      Note


      • Hold the rear suspension toe adjust cam sub-assembly while rotating the nut.

      • Make sure that all tires of the vehicle are on the ground and the vehicle is unloaded.

  5. INSPECT CAMBER

    A005955E06
    Text in Illustration
    *1 Gauge

    1. Install a camber-caster-kingpin gauge or set the vehicle on a wheel alignment tester.

    2. Inspect the camber.

      Standard Camber Inclination (Unloaded Vehicle)
      for Sedan
      Tire Size Camber Inclination Right-left Difference
      205/60R16 except Rough Road Package 2 -0°56' +/-45' (-0.93°+/-0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less
      Rough Road Package 2 -0°40' +/-45' (-0.67°+/-0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less
      215/55R17 except Rough Road Package 2 -0°56' +/-45' (-0.93°+/-0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less
      Rough Road Package 2 -0°39' +/-45' (-0.65°+/-0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less
      225/45R18 -0°56' +/-45' (-0.93°+/-0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less
      Standard Camber Inclination (Unloaded Vehicle)
      for Wagon
      Camber Inclination Right-left Difference
      -0°59' +/-45' (-0.98°+/-0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less

      If the measured value is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts for damage and wear. Replace parts as necessary as the camber cannot be properly adjusted with any damaged or worn parts.
