32 00... Additional work for camber correction

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW 328i xDrive, 2016 BMW 328d xDrive, 2015 BMW 328i xDrive, 2015 BMW 328d xDrive, and 2014 BMW 328i xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: The camber adjustment is performed only with the replacement of the swivel bearing. There are 3 different swivel bearings for this!

IMPORTANT: Changes in axle geometry caused by accidents must under no circumstances be rectified by camber adjustment!

NOTE: The swivel bearing may only be replaced if the camber is outside the specified tolerance after toe adjustment.

Necessary preliminary tasks:

Adjust the TOE-IN
Check camber values; if necessary, replace SWIVEL BEARING with over- or under-dimension variant.

Part number (1) in the graphic is only an example number!

NOTE: Series swivel bearing can be identified using the BMW part number (1) only (cast at the bottom).
