Component Tests and General Diagnostics

1. Check the tire pressure (cold) and adjust as necessary.

NOTE: Ensure the vehicle is on level ground and has no luggage or passenger load before performing the following procedure.

2. Confirm the suspension height is within specification.





3. Check the ride height from the top of the wheel arch to ground for proper specifications. Verify in both the front and rear that the difference in the ride height between the left and right sides is within 10 mm (0.4 inch).
4. If the ride height is not within specification, check for front or rear spring damage, front or rear spring sag, or non-standard replacement front or rear springs.
