		Permissible rear axle camber between right and left vehicle side In the event of larger deviations in wheel camber the following causes may exist: Too great a difference in vehicle level between right and left-hand sides of vehicle. Deformation of the camber strut (1). Deformation of rear axle carrier, e.g. through accident damage. Deformation of the body, e.g. due to accident damage. Check for impermissible deformation on body.

	Adjust camber
3	Loosen nut of cam bolt (2)	Only if the wheel camber has to be adjusted. Replace cam bolt (2), when bolt length greater than 65  millimeters and  threaded connection has been undone.
4	Adjust wheel camber via cam bolt (2)	Only if the wheel camber has to be adjusted.
5	Tighten nut of cam bolt (2)	Only if the wheel camber has to be adjusted.
