Beetle L4-2.0L (AEG) (2000)
Alignment: Testing and Inspection
Thrust Angle (Deviation From Direction of Travel), Calculating
Thrust angle (deviation from direction of travel), calculating
-
If alignment readings for rear toe are both positive or both negative (+/+ or -/-), subtract smaller figure from larger figure to determine total toe
angle, then divide by 2.
Thrust angle (deviation from direction of travel): 5°
-
If alignment readings for rear toe are different signs, one positive and one negative (+/-), add two figures to determine total toe angle, then divide
by 2.
Thrust angle (deviation from direction of travel): 10°
The result is the deviation of the actual running direction from the longitudinal center line of the vehicle.
