32 00... Additional work for camber correction

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 21 other vehicles, including the 2017 BMW 550i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT, 2016 BMW 550i GT xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i GT xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT: Changes in axle geometry caused by accidents must under no circumstances be rectified by camber adjustment!
NOTE: The upper wishbone may only be replaced if the camber is outside the specified tolerance after toe adjustment.

Adjust TOE-IN .

Check camber values; if necessary, replace upper wishbone with over-dimension or under-dimension variant. See TOP LEFT WISHBONE or TOP RIGHT WISHBONE .

NOTE: Control arms with + or - marking (see Fig 1) are camber correction arms:
Under-dimension variant,
Over-dimension variant

These camber correction arms are used to correct the camber values by 30 minutes (for M5 vehicles by 20 minutes). To be used only if the tolerance values are exceeded or undershot!

An unmarked wishbone is a standard part.
