
The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.
Otherwise the measurement will be inaccurate.

 Measure the vehicle level at
 measuring point 1 (left front) and
 measuring point 2 (right front) and save the measured values.


The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.
Otherwise the measurement will be inaccurate.

 In order to prevent the measuring sensor (086a) on the cross strut (17b) and therefore an erroneous measurement, the measuring sensor (086a) must be mounted between the cast-in humps (arrows) and pressed towards the wheel.

 Measure the vehicle level at
 measuring point 1 (left front) and
 Measuring point 2 (right front) and save measured values.

Mount the measuring sensor (086a) on rear axle shaft (65) and read off vehicle level on the inclinometer (086)


The measurement sensor connecting cable (086b) must face towards the vehicle center.
Otherwise the measurement will be inaccurate.

 Measure the vehicle level at
 measuring point 3 (left rear) and
 measuring point 4 (right rear) and store the measured values.

Check the maximum permissible difference in vehicle level between the left and right side of the vehicle

 If the vehicle level at the front or rear axle is out of tolerance, the springs and spring-rubber bushing must be checked for signs of wear and damage.

 The specified test tolerance applies only when checking the vehicle level but not for calibration.
