| 12. ADJUST FRONT HEIGHT CONTROL SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY LH (w/ Active Height Control) |
- NOTICE:
- Make adjustments from the link that deviates the most from the specified vehicle height value.
- When the front and rear are at the same level, make adjustments from the front first.
- If adjustment cannot be completed through the vehicle height offset calibration, adjust the sensor link using the following procedure.
Loosen the nut and adjust the link installation position by moving the height control sensor link up or down in the long hole of the bracket.
- HINT:
- When the link is moved 1 mm (0.0394 in.), the vehicle height changes by approximately 2 mm (0.0787 in.).

| 14. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT (w/ KDSS) |
- NOTICE:
- Perform the inspection on a level surface.
- Ensure that the wheels are on the ground and facing straight ahead.
- Perform the inspection with the vehicle load completely on the suspension.
- HINT:
- Perform this step with the fuel tank full.
- If there are any parts installed to the vehicle which place any unbalanced load on the left or right side of the vehicle, remove them.
Set the tire pressure to the specified value(s) (Click here).
Bounce the vehicle to stabilize the suspension.
Measure the distance from the ground to the top of the bumper and calculate the difference in the vehicle height between left and right. Perform this procedure for both the front and rear wheels.
- Height difference of left and right sides:
- 15 mm (0.591 in.) or less
- HINT:
- If not as specified, perform the vehicle tilt calibration.
