Turning Angle Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Insight and 2010 Honda Insight. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

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. Turn the wheel right and left while applying the brake, and measure the turning angle of the both wheels.

    Turning angle: 

    Inward: 38° 28'±2° 

    Outward (reference): 32 ° 21' ±1 °

  2. If the measurement is not within the specifications, even up both sides of the tie-rod threaded section length while adjusting the front toe. If it is correct, but the turning angle is not within the specifications, check for bent or damaged suspension components.
