Caster and Camber Shims
RobinB5 replied to RobinB5's topic in Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Hubs/Steering/Geo
Thanks @drdoom. I wonder where the expected values came from? -
Had a 4 wheel alignment check done today at a local place that came highly recommended. At least one parameter is in-spec (rear toe total) Expected values are a little off compared to the service notes, but service note values will take precedence. Anyone know what KPI and Include angle represent? Can't find any reference to them in the service notes so a bit surprised to see expected values there. The car tends to steer left easier than right, do any of the above values reflect that behaviour? I'm going to order various shims from SJs then give them to the garage to do the actual alignment changes. From the service notes I should be able to work out what castor and camber shims changes are required (castor: 1.5mm shim transference will alter by 0.4deg, camber: 1mm change in hole position will alter by 0.4deg). To do that though it looks like I have to disassemble the front top wishbones, count and measure the castor shim plates and also measure the camber plates. Is this correct? Although it looks like either the castor shim washers on the inboard side can be changed OR the castor shim plates on the outboard side can be changed, I'm assuming it'd be easier for them just to adjust the outboard shim plates? Anything else I should watch out for / prepare for?

Not to everyone's liking, but one of my favourite films. Interested to know if anyone else here has been affected by this film in the same way I have been?

On the charging cable side either the cable will have to have some form of integrated 2-phase liquid cooling or just have to be very unwieldy by having very large diameter cables. So is 800V used to supply the 800kW? If so that's 1000A which is crazy. Inside the car surely the supply to the battery would have to be more akin to a busbar than a cable? As @KusaKusasaid, has anyone got any pictures of the powertrain components?
