Adjustment [07/2020 - ]: Procedure

Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 1

1. Check vehicle interior and luggage compartment for load status, if applicable, unload vehicle.
2. Place specified load into the vehicle.
   • Driver seat center position: 68 kg (149.9 lb)
   • Passenger seat center position: 68 kg (149.9 lb)
   • Luggage compartment center position: 14 kg (30.9 lb)
   • Fuel tank: full tank
3. Position weights in the luggage compartment until the nominal ride-level height of the vehicle is reached.
4. Position weights in the footwell as far as possible in the direction of front axle until the nominal ride-level height of the vehicle is reached.
5. Measure the vehicle height.

   Vehicle Height

   Tire Size	Equipment	Front (A)	Rear (B)
   17 inch	w/o AVS	610 mm (2.00 ft.)	607 mm (1.99 ft.)
   	w/ AVS	602 mm (1.97 ft.)	599 mm (1.96 ft.)
   18 inch	w/o AVS	621 mm (2.04 ft.)	619 mm (2.03 ft.)
   	w/ AVS	614 mm (2.01 ft.)	612 mm (2.01 ft.)
   19 inch	w/o AVS	634 mm (2.08 ft.)	632 mm (2.07 ft.)
   	w/ AVS	627 mm (2.06 ft.)	625 mm (2.05 ft.)

   NOTE:

   • Height is measured vertically through wheel center from lower rim flank to wheel arch edge.
   • The tolerance for the vehicle height is 2 mm (0.0787 in.) or less.
   • The difference between the left and right is 2 mm (0.0787 in.) or less.

1. Bounce the vehicle up and down at the corners to stabilize the suspension.
2. Release the parking brake and move the shift position to N.
3. Push the vehicle straight ahead approximately 5 m (16.4 ft.). (Step C)
4. Put tread center marks on the rearmost points of the front wheels and measure the distance between the marks (dimension B).

   *a	Tread Center Mark
   *b	Dimension B
   	Front of the Vehicle

5. Slowly push the vehicle straight ahead to cause the front wheels to rotate 180°. Use the front tire valve as a reference point.

   HINT: 

   Do not allow the wheels to rotate more than 180°. If the wheels rotate more than 180°, perform the procedure from step C again.

6. Measure the distance between the tread center marks on the front of the wheels (dimension A).

   Toe-in

   Specified Condition
   C + D: 0°16' +/- 0°12' (0.27° +/- 0.20°)
   B - A: 3.1 +/- 2.3 mm (0.1220 +/- 0.0906 in.)

   HINT: 

   Measure "B - A" only when "C + D" cannot be measured.

HINT: 

Camber and toe-in influence each other. Adjust the toe-in first in order to simplify the adjustment procedure.

1. Separate the steering rack boot clips (1) from the steering rack boot.

2. Loosen the T50 lock bolts (2) on the tie rod end.
3. Turn the right and left tie rods (3) by an equal amount to adjust the toe-in.
4. Tighten the T50 lock bolts (2) on the tie rod end.

   Torque: 32 N.m (326 kgf/cm, 24 ft.lbf) 

5. Place the steering rack boots on the seats and install the steering rack boot clips (1).

   HINT: 

   Make sure that the steering rack boots are not twisted.

1. Install a camber-caster-kingpin gauge and place the front wheels on the center of a turning radius gauge.

   *a	Turning Radius Gauge
   *b	Camber-caster-kingpin Gauge

2. Inspect the camber, caster and steering axis inclination.

   Camber

   Equipment	Camber Inclination	Right-left Difference
   w/o AVS	-1°38' +/- 0°30' (-1.63° +/- 0.50°)	0°30' (0.50°) or less
   w/ AVS	-1°45' +/- 0°30' (-1.75° +/- 0.50°)

   Caster

   Caster Inclination	Right-left Difference
   7°35' +/- 0°30' (7.58° +/- 0.50°)	0°30' (0.50°) or less

   Steering Axis Inclination

   Steering Axis Inclination Reference
   17°21' (17.35°)

HINT: 

Camber and toe-in influence each other. Adjust the toe-in first in order to simplify the adjustment procedure.

1. Adjust camber by changing steering knuckle (1) to service steering knuckle.

   Service Steering Knuckle

   Position	Toyota Part No. (BMW Part No.)	Correction Value
   LH side	43212-WAA01 (6 878 613)	Standard
   	43212-WAA02 (6 877 201)	-30' (-0.50°)
   	43212-WAA03 (6 877 203)	+30' (+0.50°)
   RH side	43211-WAA01 (6 878 614)	Standard
   	43211-WAA02 (6 877 202)	-30' (-0.50°)
   	43211-WAA03 (6 877 204)	+30' (+0.50°)

2. Remove the steering knuckle.

   Refer to REMOVAL [07/2020 - ]

3. Install the service steering knuckle.

   Refer to INSTALLATION [07/2020 - ]

1. Put tread center marks on the rearmost points of a turning radius gauge.

   *b	Outside
   	Front of the Vehicle

2. Turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right and measure the turning angle.

   Wheel Turning Angle

   Inside Wheel	Outside Wheel
   38°23' (38.38°)	29°09' (29.15°)

   1. If the right and left inside wheel angles differ from the specified value, check and adjust the right and left tie rod lengths.
