2. Inspect the camber.

   CAMBER

   Camber	-1°32' +/-45' (-1.53° +/-0.75°)
   Right-left error	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 because camber cannot be properly adjusted with any damaged or worn parts.

Front of Vehicle

Toe-in (Unloaded Vehicle)

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

1. Loosen the toe adjust cam nut.

2. Turn the adjust cams by an equal amount to adjust toe-in.

   HINT: 

   • Try to adjust the toe-in to the center value.
   • The toe-in will change by the following specifications corresponding to each graduation of the cam.

     Approx. 4.7 mm (0.19 in.)

3. Tighten the nut.

   Torque: 117 N*m (1193 kgf*cm, 86 ft.*lbf) 

1. Measure the thread lengths of the right and left rack ends.

   Standard

   Difference in thread length of 1.5 mm (0.059 in.) or less

2. Remove the rack boot set clips.
3. Loosen the tie rod end lock nuts.
4. Adjust the rack ends if the difference in thread length between the right and left rack ends is not within the specified range.
   1. Extend the shorter rack end if the measured toe-in deviates toward the inner-side.
   2. Shorten the longer rack end if the measured toe-in deviates toward the outer-side.
5. Turn the right and left rack ends by an equal amount to adjust toe-in.

   HINT: 

   Try to adjust toe-in to the center of the specified range.

6. Make sure that the lengths of the right and left rack ends are the same.
7. Tighten the tie rod end lock nuts.

   Torque: 55 N*m (561 kgf*cm, 41 ft.*lbf) 

   NOTE:

   Temporarily tighten the lock nut while holding the hexagonal part of the steering rack end so that the lock nut and the steering rack end do not turn together. Hold the width across flat of the tie rod end and tighten the lock nut.

8. Place the boots on the seats and install the clips.
9. Perform neutral position memorization and motor rotation angle sensor calibration for the dynamic rear steering system (See article. Refer to CALIBRATION [09/2014 - ] ).

1. Inspect the rear suspension member.

   1. Measure the distance between the centers of the installation bolts of the rear No. 2 suspension arm assembly LH and RH.

      Standard

      536.8 to 543.7 mm (1.761 to 1.783 ft.)

      HINT: 

      If the distance is not within the specified range, replace the rear suspension member.

2. Inspect the rear No. 2 suspension arm assembly.

   1. Measure the distance between the centers of the 2 installation bolts of the rear No. 2 suspension arm assembly.

      Standard

      433.5 to 434.5 mm (1.422 to 1.425 ft.)

      HINT: 

      If the distance is not within the specified range, replace the rear No. 2 suspension arm assembly.

3. Inspect the rear upper control arm assembly.

   1. Measure the distance between the centers of the installation bolt of the upper control arm assembly rear No. 2 and the ball joint stud.

      Standard

      299 mm (11.77 in.)

      HINT: 

      If the distance is not within the specified range, replace the rear upper control arm assembly.

4. Inspect and adjust toe-in and camber.
   1. Inspect toe-in and camber.

      If the values are not within the specified range, adjust the installation bolt holding the rear suspension member to the vehicle body, or the bolt holding the upper control arm and rear suspension arm so that the values fall within the specified range.
