Wheel Alignment Specifications - Front - LHD Models

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport and 2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: When checking or adjusting front or rear steering geometry, the vehicle must either have a full fuel tank or have sufficient weight placed in the vehicle's load space to give the equivalent weight of a full fuel tank. The weight must be evenly distributed at the front and the right hand side of the load space. The fuel tank capacity is 86.3 liters (18.9 Imperial gallons) (22.7 US gallons). Depending on the amount of fuel in the tank, calculate the amount of weight which must be added:
  • 1 liter of fuel weighs 0.8 kg (1.7 pounds)
  • 1 Imperial gallon of fuel weighs 3.6 kg (8.0 pounds)
  • 1 US gallon of fuel weighs 3.0 kg (6.7 pounds)
NOTE: All figures are with vehicle at 'Showroom' ride height - full fluids, full tank of fuel, no occupants/luggage, tires inflated to normal pressures
