Toe-in correction on rear axle (Compact, Z3)
Necessary toe-in corrections on the rear axle, caused by
unfavorable coinciding of tolerances, can be compensated
by installing eccentric rubber mounts.
Caution!
Changes to the axle geometry caused by an accident must
under no circumstances be "rectified" by means of this
measure.
Switch KDS wheel alignment analyzer display format to
millimeters.
Carry out wheel alignment with this adjustment.
Determine correction value, for example:
Actual toe-in value, rear left
+ 2.5 mm
Specified toe-in value, rear
left
+ 1.5 mm
Toe-in correction value
1.0 mm
From the diagram below for the corresponding side (left/right),
determine the number of the toe-in increase or reduction (0 to 9)
for the correction value (e.g. 1 mm).
Connect the number on both sides of the eccentric rubber mount
(e.g. 4.5) with an artificial line.
Note:
If the adjustment on the outer rubber mount is not sufficient,
an eccentric rubber mount can also be fitted on the inside.
