32 00 620 Adjusting Rear Axle

NOTE: A camber change always means a toe change as well. The camber must therefore be adjusted first.

IMPORTANT:

Only on cars with Active Cruise Control:

Because the axis of motion is the reference for ACC adjustment, it is necessary after an adjustment of the rear axle which alters the axis of motion also to check the adjustment of the ACC sensor!

Adjusting camber:

Replace nut (2) and tighten to 5 Nm.

Turn eccentric bolt (1) to adjust camber to setpoint value.

Tighten nut (2).

Tightening torque 33 32 9AZ .
