Please can anyone tell me what the figures are for correct wheel alignment.

Cheers

Green books (official Volvo workshop manuals) are in the technical resources bit of the forum...

Have you looked in there?

Haynes give spec in mm

front= 4 +/-1mm toe in. I think that means the front of the rims are 4mm closer than the rear of the rim but it depends what rim diameter it was based on. Haynes doesn't say. Bloody idiots don't understand geometry. Its probably based on 13" rims.

Rear = 0 +/- 3mm (mainly adjusted by the radius arm)

Hopefully the green book is clearer.

I 'll check the green books in future.I just used the search facility and failed to find what I needed.On a different note I did find the repair of the coilpack thread very useful for the heater fan.Info was spot on,now my demister works.
