2. Roll the car with the front wheels onto gauges for measuring the angle of rotation with the rear wheels - onto stands of the same height.
3. Check the maximum steering angle of the left and right road wheels along the inner and outer radius.
4. Start the engine. While it is running at idle speed, turn the steering wheel from lock to lock and measure the steering angles.
Standard:
- Angle along the inner radius of the turn (A): See section below «Technical data and specifications».
- Angle at outer turning radius (B): See section below «Technical data and specifications».
5. If different from normal, check the following:
A. Measure the rack stroke.
Standard.
Neutral position of the rack «L»: See section below «Technical data and specifications».
b. If the rack travel is different from the norm, disassemble the steering mechanism to identify the cause.
- The steering angles of the front wheels are not adjustable. If any of them are abnormal, check for wear or damage to the steering mechanism components of the steering column and front suspension.
- If any abnormality is found, replace the defective parts.
