1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement. 2. Make sure the suspension is not modified. 3. Check the tire size and tire pressure. Tire size: DX ('03-05), and VP models: P195/65R15 89H M+S LX (except '06-07 2-door U.S.A.), and LX-P models: P205/65R15 92H M+S DX ('06-07), LX ('06-07 2-door U.S.A.), SE, EX, EXL and EX-SE models: P205/60R16 91V M+S Tire pressure: DX, VP, LX ('06-07 2-door U.S.A.), SE, EX, EXL and EX-SE models: Front: 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2, 32 psi) Rear: 210 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm2, 30 psi) LX (except '06-07 2-door U.S.A.) and LX-P models: Front: 210 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm2, 30 psi) Rear: 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm2, 29 psi) 4.

Bounce the suspension up and down several times to stabilize the suspension. Caster Inspection Use a commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions. 1. Check the caster angle. Caster angle: DX ('03-05), and VP models: 3°10' ±45' DX ('06-07), LX, LXP, SE, EX, EXL and EX-SE models: 3°15' ±45' 2. If out of specification, check for bent or damaged suspension components. Camber Inspection Use a commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions. 1. Check the camber angle. Camber angle: Front: DX ('03-05), and VP models: 0°03' ±45' DX ('06-07), LX, LXP, SE, EX, EXL and EX-SE models: 0°00' ±45' Maximum difference between the right and left side: 0°45' Rear: DX ('03-05), and VP models: -0°50' ±30' DX ('06-07), LX, LXP, SE, EX, EXL and EX-SE models: -1°00' ±30' 2. If out of specification, check for bent or damaged suspension components. Front Toe Inspection/Adjustment Use a commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions. 1. Center the steering wheel spokes. 2. Check the toe with the wheels pointed straight ahead. Front toe-in: 0 ±2 mm (0 ±1/16 inch) If no adjustment is required, remove the alignment equipment. If adjustment is required, go to step 3.

After adjusting, tighten the tie-rod locknuts. Reposition the rack-rod boot if it is twisted or displaced. Rear Toe Inspection/Adjustment Use a commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions. 1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement. 2. Check the toe. Rear toe-in: 2 ±2 mm (0.08 ±0.08 inch) If no adjustment is required, remove the alignment equipment. If adjustment is required, go to step 3.
