32 00 620 Adjusting rear axle

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 BMW M3, 2009 BMW M3, and 2008 BMW M3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
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  . See 66 31 001 ADJUSTING ACC SENSOR .

Adjusting camber: 

Replace nut (2) and tighten to 5 Nm.
