Alignment: Service and Repair

Wheel Alignment

The suspension can be adjusted for front and rear toe.

Pre-Alignment Checks

For proper inspection and adjustment of the wheel alignment, do these checks:
1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
2. Make sure the suspension is not modified.
3. Check the tire size and tire pressure.

Tire size:

('03-05 Models)
Except 2 door EX, M/T models: P205/60R16 91V M+S
2 door EX, MT model: P215/50R17 93V M+S
('06-07 Models)
P205/50R17 93V M+S

Tire pressure:

('03-05 Models)
Front: 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2, 32 psi)
Rear:

4 door LX, EX models: 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2, 32 psi)
2 door LX, EX models: 210 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm2, 30 psi)
2 door EX, M/T model: 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm2, 29 psi)

('06-07 Models)
Front: 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2, 32 psi)
Rear: 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm2, 29 psi)

4. Check the runout of the wheels and tires.

5. Check the suspension ball joints. (Hold a wheel with your hands, and move it up and down and right and left to check for wobbling.)
6. Bounce the vehicle up and down several times to stabilize the suspension.

Caster Inspection

Use commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle).
Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

1. Check the caster angle.

Caster angle: 3°15'±45' 

2. If out of specification, check for bent or damaged suspension components.

Camber Inspection

Use commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle).
Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

1. Check the camber angle.

Camber angle:

Front: 0°00' ±45'
Maximum difference between the right and left side: 0°45'
Rear: -1°00' ±30'
