INSPECT Check     
1 Check condition of vehicle. IMPORTANT Before the vehicle level check, it must be ensured that none of the suspension components are damaged or exhibit wear.
IMPORTANT For the vehicle level check, all vehicle parts must be installed and the vehicle completed and in a ready to drive condition. The vehicle must not be loaded.
 
2 Check and correct tire pressure.    
REFER TO MAINTENANCE     AP40.15-P-4061A 
3 Drive the vehicle onto measuring station and secure using parking brake.    
4 Unlock turn and slip plates.    
5 Remove rear transverse control arm trims.    
6 Clean measurement areas (a, b, c).    
7 Place measurement sensor (086a) in measurement areas (a) and measure vehicle level at measuring point 1 (left front) and measuring point 2 (right front). NOTES
The connecting cable (086b) of the measurement sensor (086a) must point towards the center of the vehicle.
Otherwise the measurement will be inaccurate.
IMPORTANT Save measured values.
 
8.1 Place measurement sensor (086a) in measurement areas (b) and measure vehicle level at measuring point 3 (left rear) and measuring point 4 (right rear). Model 167 (except 167.154/161/188/189/354/361/388/389/989) with code 490 (Electrohydraulic suspension)
