Straight-Ahead Check
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Suzuki Verona. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
After completing all the necessary operations on the steering gear, such as removing and installing, disassembling and assembling, check the exact straight-ahead position of the steering in each case.
With the vehicle on the floor, place the steering wheel in the straight-ahead position. Mark the centerline of both tires on the floor. Turn the steering wheel all the way to the right and mark the new centerline of both tires on the floor.
