RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
| CAUTION | On vehicles with air springs, pull fuse of air supply system so there is no regulation. |
Note. On vehicles with electronic chassis controls, all systems should be functional before attempting riding height or wheel alignment adjustment.
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Riding height must be checked with vehicle on level floor and tires properly inflated. Load front seats with 150 Lbs. (68 kg) each. Load 31 Lbs. (14 kg) in center of trunk and fill fuel tank.
Measure actual ride-level height from wheel housing lower edge to rim flange at height of wheel center. Determine average value of each wheel after lifting and lowering vehicle body and then average value of axle from these values. Ride height measurement must be within .04" (10 mm) of each side. For specifications, see RIDE HEIGHT SPECIFICATIONS .
WHEEL ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES
| CAUTION | On vehicles with air springs, pull fuse of air supply system so there is no regulation. |
| CAUTION | On cars equipped with Electronic Damper Control, it is essential after wheel alignment to perform a "steering angle check/adjustment" with the BMW Diagnosis System. |
Note. Prior to performing wheel alignment, perform preliminary visual and mechanical inspection of wheels, tires, riding height and suspension components.
CASTER ADJUSTMENT
