Before/Actual/Specified Range


Front: Left

Camber: 0.7/0.2/-0.5-0.5
Caster: 3.3/3.3/2.5-3.5
Toe: 0.03/0.02/0.12


Front: Right

Camber: -0.8/0.4/-0.5-0.5
Caster: 2.9/2.9/2.5-3.5
Toe: 0.00/0.01/0.12

Rear: Left

Camber: -1.7/-1.7/-1.8,-0.8
Toe: 0.47/0.42/0.00-0.24

Rear: Right

Camber: -1.6/-1.5/-1.8;-0.8
Toe: 0.14/0.17/0.00-0.24

So overall everything is within spec except for the toe on the rear left, its off by 20-30 degrees. what could have caused this?

Did you remember running over something hard on your rear left corner before your alignment?

actually yes i backed into a curb in reverse on that side the nite before. there was a light pole on that curb that was literally an inch away from the car, i thought i had hit it and scraped the side of my car, but i missed it.

I have the same problem , left rear. my dealership said other early 8G and 3G experience similar problems relating to a nut/washer thats holding the Toe together. Simply replacing it corrrects the problem but I remember going to the alignment device just to fix reoccuring problem. Sux ass.

Well possibly a combonation of the curb incident and the common problem with the toe alignment could be the result. Maybe replacing that nut/washer will fix that issue.
