MG F/TF Wheel Alignment & Geometry Data 3 weeks 5 days ago #206420
NOTE! The data provided refers to current and recent models. For vehicles produced before 1999 model year, refer to the relevant workshop manual.
IMPORTANT:
Before commencing wheel alignment and geometry checking, ensure that all tyre pressures are correct.
The readings provided assume that the vehicle has a full tank of fuel and in an unladen condition.
The owner should be encouraged to fill the fuel tank prior to the geometry check being carried out.
If this is impractical, a weight compensation formula is provided.
To compensate for a part full fuel tank, the boot space must be weighted accordingly. Sufficient weights should be placed as far forward in the boot space as possible. The table below suggests the compensation weight required, any convenient (clean) weight can be used for this purpose. For convenience, water can be used for weight compensation purposes providing suitable clean containers are used.
1 kg of water = 1 litre of water (assuming water temperature is approximately 25 degrees and measured at 1 standard atmospheric pressure).
The table shows the compensation weight in kg or litres (if water is used)
