Golf IV R32 :: Front Camber Won't Adjust At All?
Jan 6, 2013
I am running fk coils, and for some reason the front driver side camber is -1.2 and it won't adjust at all. The passenger side is -2.2 and won't adjust. I was told that the the R's oem camber can be adjusted up to -1.7.
I have no camber kits on the car. I told my Mechanic why the camber doesn't adjust. He told me that he over looked everything and that he didnt see anything wrong.
I had my front shocks replaced because they were blown. It bothers me how one side has -1 more camber than the other side. I am thinking about buying camber kit because of this problem I'm having.

I called 2 VW dealerships but they couldn't give me an answer on how much adjustment for camber is possible. I did the search but only found rear camber adjustment info.

I have 2015 Rc350 F, with 13k miles on it and my right Front Camber Ball Joint is leaking greasy oil. Do I need to replace this or can this be covered under warranty? I have lowered springs on which I don't think has affected the camber ball.

ok, I have an 02 f-150 4x4 that I did the brakes, shocks, and inner and outer tie rod ends. When I was done, the truck sat higher in the front end and the caster/camber was way out. bottom of tire sits way in. Is this just and adjustment to the tie rods, or what. The old rod ends were pretty bad. Could this be the result of an alignment tech setting caster way out to account for the bad ball joints?

So I finally bagged my GTI...When I am aired out it looks like one side has more camber than the other side (One side rests on the tire and the other side is tucked more).
I took it to get aligned and apparently the rear have both been set 2.7 degrees camber.
I'm running Dorbritrz D-cups and SS-5s in the rear.

Loving my new to me GX470. However shocked to realize that front passenger seat does not adjust up or down. Wife has missed this feature that all of our previous cars have had.
I have read other threads on the subject and was wondering if someone could not modify a drivers side seat mechanism to work on the drivers side. I am aware of the GPS disk etc.

Looking for a detailed SAI delete?
I see all the hoses and vacuum lines and I guess I'm unsure what lines to remove and which to keep.
I see the black box under the manifold has a vacuum line that goes to the flapper on the intake manifold I still want that functional.

Got my car back from the dealership today, new DSG in, but already have it on jack stands trying to figure out how to adjust the gear selector. Feels sloppy going from park to reverse. When in reverse, it very easily slips into neutral. If you hold down the lock button on the shifter and go from P to S and then back, there is very little resistance between the different positions.
I see what I think is the shifter cable under the car below the turbo area coming through the firewall, but how to adjust this on a DSG.

Is it possible to increase the steering boost, so that the wheel is easier to turn -- like with VAG-COM? I'm not a big fan of the heavy steering.

I had H&R springs installed today. I have a problem now. When driving with the headlights on i noticed that while braking the self leveling in our headlights seem to be freaking out. Every time I press the breaks the lights are constantly trying to adjust. What this could be?

I picked up a golf mk4 with low miles on it and have been working out the bugs - so far I changed out the dreaded power steering rack starter crank position sensor - dam theses cars are tough to work on but I actually enjoy it and could not have been successful without vwvortexx guiding me through- got a ton of suspension parts waiting for me to put in but I have this problem that's dogging me - searched like crazy couldn't find anything ...
When I adjust the steering column the engine "skips" and when I push the wheel in and out (as opposed to up and down) I can actually get the engine to cut out completely. (I should also mention that according to dealership receipts the PRNDL switch has been replaced along with repairs of wiring harness)...

I have a 2000 Jetta GLX VR6, automatic, that I have been going over for my son. The passenger side mirror doesn't adjust when I shift into reverse. I moved up,(towards the top of the housing) a little. Shifted to park and then back to reverse and it moved up again and doesn't return. I have changed the mirror switch, the mirror motors, and have dis-connected all the electrical plugs on the transmission. I figured the plugs needed to be plugged and re-plugged to clean the terminals, but no luck. Is there a switch or sensor that needs to be replaced on the transmission? All the fuses are good. What needs to be done?

Notice the camber on the rear, it is kinda off.I already notice the first day I got my car. never paid attention. I did my spring install put the new wheels, went to a shop to align it and still i can see that there is a negative camber on the rear. Vw tech are saying it is normal for the front wheel drive like our car.
Prolly the cambers are not adjustable. Is the rear toe adjustable? after alignment my passenger side rear is straight but the driver side rear is off. i did check on the adjustable parts on the rear but i cannot see one. am I missing something.

I'm running on BC coils and was wondering how low do you have to go until you get some natural camber?
I lowered my car by 3" already but no natural camber has occured yet.

I have a 2004 Camry and I got an alignment at Firestone they rep told me that my rear left camber alignment is off, my right camber alignment is is within range.

He recommended I change my struts as Toyota does not specify rear camber adjustment. Is this normal on car with 160k on it ?. I have seen several chamber kits out there should I just get one and go somewhere else for them to realign it with the kit ?

I am getting some coilovers soon, but noticed a lot of people having camber issues when slammed, I am not looking to be on the ground, just wanna get rid of wheel gap. My goal is to have 1 finger between the tire and wheelwell. Is this doable without issues?
