Hi,
I have a 2003 Toyota Corolla (Right Hand Drive) the steering wheel used to vibrate at any speed and pull to left.
Got wheel alignment and balancing (swapped rear tires with front) though the vibration is finally gone, but the vehicle still pulls to left within 15-20 metres.
On turning the steering wheel to exteme ends one noise is heard, is that normal?
Also what would be the recommended values for (Castor,Cambor,KPI, Individual Toe and Final Toe) for Front and Rear as have seen wheel alignment guyz strangely use varying set of reference values though it should be same (what toyota recommends)
Pls advise.
Cheers,
Anks
The specs are what the manufacturer recommends for the vehicle when it leaves the factory. However that means with the original tires and condition. The caster is not adjustable on a Corolla, so if the vehicle pulls even with the tires switched, there is a possibility there is damage to the strut or steering parts. However, before changing anything, check all tire pressures and make sure the brakes are in good condition. A brake that is not releasing properly will cause a pull to that side. Individual toe is rather meaningless - the total toe is what is measured. You have no king pins on a Toyota so you will not have KPI.
