Steering Geometry - Front

CAUTION: When checking or adjusting front or rear steering geometry, the vehicle must either have a full fuel tank or have sufficient weight placed in the vehicle's load space to give the equivalent weight of a full fuel tank. The weight must be evenly distributed at the front and the right hand side of the load space. The fuel tank capacity is 86.3 litres (18.9 Imperial gallons) (22.7 US gallons). Depending on the amount of fuel in the tank, calculate the amount of weight which must be added:

* 1 litre of fuel weighs 0.8 kg (1.7 pounds)
* 1 Imperial gallon of fuel weighs 3.6 kg (8.0 pounds)
* 1 US gallon of fuel weighs 3.0 kg (6.7 pounds)


Front Suspension at Standard Ride Height:

Castor = 4º 01' ± 45' (4.02º ± 0.75º)
Cross Castor = 0º ± 45' - Maximum (0º ± 0.75º - Maximum)
Camber = -30' ± 45' (0.50º ± 0.75º)
Cross Camber = 0º ± 45' - Maximum (0º ± 0.75º - Maximum)
King Pin Inclination (KPI) = 13º 54' (13.9º)
Total Toe - all models except TdV8 = - 0º 10' ± 12' (- 0.16º ± 0.20º)
Total Toe - TdV8 models only = - 0º 05' ± 12' (- 0.08º ± 0.20º)


Steering Geometry - Rear


Rear Suspension at Standard Ride Height:

Camber = -1° ± 45' (-1° ± 0.75º)
Cross Camber = 0° ± 51' - Maximum (0° ± 0.85º - Maximum)
Total Toe - all models except TdV8 = 0º 14' ± 0.08' (0.24º ± 0.14º)
Total Toe - TdV8 models only = 0º 24' ± 0.12' (0.40º ± 0.20º)
Thrust Angle = 0º ± 8' - Maximum (0º ± 0.14º - Maximum)

Excellent. Many thanks.

My car always tracks left. It also leans left. LR said there was nothing wrong. Can I ask what people's ride height is at the back; distance to centre of wheel arch from floor (measurement taken through the wheel axis to the gap between the black wheel arch liner and the body)?

Mine is 82.25 cm on the off side (driver's side) and 80.50 cm on the near side.

Camber = -30' ± 45' (0.50º ± 0.75º) (0.50º ± 0.75º)
King Pin Inclination (KPI) = 13º 54' (13.9º) (13.9º)
Total Toe - all models except TdV8 = - 0º 10' ± 12' (- 0.16º ± 0.20º) (0.04º ± 0.10º)

I discovered the big difference on both front & rear toe. according to my riding experience, I think you gave the correct data. Thumbs Up thanx.
