TROUBLESHOOTING
WHEEL AND TYRE31-5

1. After balancing the wheel, loosen the wing nut
and turn the wheel 180° against the balancer's
hub. Then re-tighten the wing nut and check the
balance again. Repeat wheel balance if
necessary.
2. Turn the wheel again 180° against the balancer's
hub. If the wheel becomes out-of-balance each
time it is turned against the balancer's hub, the
wheel balancer may require calibration.

1. Mount an undamaged original-equipment alloy
rim and tyre assembly (wheel) onto your
off-the-car wheel balancer. Balance the wheel.
2. <>
Loosen the balancer wing nut, rotate the wheel a
half-turn (180°), and retighten the nut. Recheck
the balance.
•If the imbalance is 5g or less, the zero calibration
is OK. Rebalance the wheel, then go to Step 4 to
check static balance.
•If the imbalance is more than 5g, go to Step 3.
3. Loosen the balancer wing nut, rotate the wheel
1/4 turn (90°), and retighten the nut. Recheck the
wheel balance.
•If the imbalance is 5g or less, the wheel may not
be centred on the balancer, or the balancing
cones, the cup, and/or wing nut are damaged,
dirty, or inappropriate for the wheel. You may
need to refer to the balancer manufacturer's
instructions to verify the correct attachments.
After making the necessary corrections, recheck
the wheel balance. If OK, then go to Step 4.•If the imbalance is more than 5g, the balancer
requires calibration. Contact the balancer
manufacturer for calibration by their repair
representative.
4. <>
Attach a 5g weight to the outer rim. Recheck the
balancer. The balancer should detect 5 ± 2g of
imbalance 170 to 190° away from the 5g weight.
•If the imbalance is within specification, the static
balance calibration is correct. Go to Step 5 to
check the dynamic balance.
•If the imbalance is out of specification, the
balancer requires calibration. Contact the
balancer manufacturer for calibration by their
repair representative.
5. <>
Attach a 5g weight to the inner rim at 180°
opposite the 5g weight that was added in Step 4.
Recheck the balance. The balancer should detect
5 ± 2g of imbalance 170 to 190° away from both
the inner and outer 5g weights.
•If the imbalance is within specification, the
dynamic balance calibration is correct. The
balancer calibration checks are complete.
•If the imbalance is out of specification, the
balancer requires calibration. Contact the
balancer manufacturer for calibration by their
repair representative.

REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT CHECK AND
ADJUSTMENT
M1341011000372
Measure wheel alignment with an alignment
equipment on level earth.
The rear suspension, wheels, and tyres should be
serviced to the normal condition prior to wheel
alignment measurement.
CAMBER
Standard value: -0° 40' ± 30' (Left/right
deviation within 30')
CAUTION
Never subject the wheel bearings to the vehicle
load when the rear wheel hub nuts (self-locking
nuts) or special tool wheel alignment gauge
attachment (MB991014) are loosened.
NOTE:
For vehicles with aluminium wheels, attach the
camber/caster/kingpin gauge to the trailing arm
spindle by using special tool wheel alignment gauge
attachment (MB991014). Tighten the special tool to
the same torque 175
± 25 N⋅m as the rear wheel hub
nut (self-locking nut). MB990947 Lower arm bushing arbor Trailing arm bushing

PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE
CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT
M1361000900339
1. Pull the parking brake lever with a force of
approximately 200 N and count the number of
notches.
Standard value: 5 − 7 notches
2. If the parking brake lever stroke is not the
standard value, adjust as described below.
(1) Remove the rear console assembly (Refer to
GROUP 52A, Rear Floor Console P.52A-8).
(2) Loosen the adjusting nut to move it to the
cable rod end so that the cable will be free.
(3) Remove the wheels.
(4) Complete air bleeding of brake circuit. (Refer
to GROUP 35A, On-vehicle Service, Bleeding
P.35A-6.)(5) Remove the rear wheel hub plug, and then
use a flat-tipped screwdriver to turn the shoe
slack adjuster in the direction of the arrow (the
direction which expands the shoe) so that the
disc will not rotate.
Return the shoe slack adjuster 5 notches in
the direction opposite to the direction of the
arrow.
(6) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking
brake lever stroke to the standard value. After
adjusting, check that there is no space
between the adjusting nut and the parking
brake lever. Check that the adjusting nut is
secured with the nut holder.
CAUTION
If the parking brake lever stroke is below the
standard value and the braking is too firm, the
rear brakes may drag.
(7) Release the parking brake and turn the rear
wheels to check that the rear brakes are not
dragging.
