Group: CHASSIS

Number: 06-50-017

Date: DECEMBER, 2006

Model:
AZERA (TG) AND SONATA (NF)

Subject:
FRONT WHEEL TOE-IN ADJUSTMENT CAUTION

DESCRIPTION:

This bulletin describes the correct position of the tie rod end for Azera (TC) and Sonata (NF) vehicles.





During toe-in adjustment, the tie rod end (B) may move towards the stabilizer bar link (A) and reduce the clearance between the two parts as shown.





After toe-in adjustment, tighten the tie rod end lock nuts firmly then rotate the tie rod end with a wrench to increase clearance as shown.

NOTE:
Minimum clearance between the tie rod and the stabilizer bar link may cause an interference noise when the steering is turned fully or the vehicle is driven over uneven or rough road surfaces.
