Tracking - cant got it right

[RascalRuss]

Guys

Just had my wheel tracking done today, and alot of values were out, they corrected some of them, but were able to correct the rest. Would you be able to tell me what has more than likely worn from the values that they could not get right as below,

Front Caster - Left Wheel - 6 degrees 5 minutes (should be 8 degrees)

Front Toe out on turn - Left wheel - 1 degree 26 minutes (should be 2 degrees 20 minutes)

Front Toe out on turn - Right wheel - 1 degree 20minutes (should be 2 degrees 20 minutes)

Rear Camber - Left Wheel - -0 degree 55 minutes (should be 1 degree 30 minutes)

Full info is:

Front Camber - Left wheel = -0.24, right wheel = -0.19

Front Caster - Left wheel = 6.5, right wheel = 7.32

Front Toe - Left wheel = 0.02, right wheel = 0.02

Front KPI - Left wheel = 17.47, right wheel = 17.41

Front Included angle - left wheel = 17.24, right wheel = 17.22

Front Toe out on turn - left wheel = 1.26, right wheel = 1.20

Total toe = 0.04

Rear Camber - Left wheel - -0.55, right wheel = -1.55

Rear Toe - Left wheel = 0.06, right wheel = 0.03

Total Toe = 0.09

Many thanks

Hi Guys,

I cant seem to log in to my hotmail to ask Richard this, so wondered if anyone can offer some help.

Im just disputing a wheel alignment I have had done and want to check they are using the wrong values, but they are saying that have used the right ones still.

In the work shop manual it states vaules for Boxster and Boxster S in a little table (on page 332) and give values for USA Series and Sport, RoW: Series, and RoW: Sport.

Does the RoW: Sport relate to Boxster S values os M30 sports suspension.

I have a MY00 Boxster S WITHOUT the M30 sports suspension

Can anyone help

many thanks

USA and RoW M030 Sports suspension are different. They use different springs, shockers and anti-roll bars. The USA M030 is softer than RoW, and I think that's why the alignment for USA standard (series) and sports suspension are the same. The RoW M030 is 10mm lower than the RoW standard suspension, hence it has different alignment settings.

Sounds like the alignment people have used the wrong settings, confusing the "S" for sport.
