How to Adjust Wheel Camber Angle?
1 Answers
Four-wheel alignment camber angle requires professional instrument calibration. It is recommended to adjust at a 4S shop. The camber angle varies for different vehicles. Below is an example using the Porsche Cayenne, with the camber angle adjustment method as follows: 1. Use a four-wheel alignment machine to check all data and adjust according to the vehicle's standards. 2. Use the target wheel of the alignment machine to detect wheel data. 3. Adjust the toe adjustment nut. If the data shows red, it needs adjustment. Adjust directly to the standard green display data. 4. Adjust the front wheel camber angle bolt. If the data shows red, it needs adjustment. Adjust directly to the standard green display data. 5. Adjust the left rear camber angle bolt. If the data shows red, it needs adjustment. Adjust directly to the standard green display data. 6. Adjust the right rear wheel camber angle bolt. If the data shows red, it needs adjustment. Adjust directly to the standard green display value. Effects of incorrect wheel camber angle on the vehicle: 1. Excessive positive camber angle can cause unilateral wear on the outer side of the tire; accelerated wear of suspension system components; the vehicle will drift towards the side with a larger positive camber angle. 2. Excessive negative camber angle can cause unilateral wear on the inner side of the tire; accelerated wear of suspension system components; the vehicle will drift towards the side with a smaller negative camber angle.
