Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Test preparations, wheel alignment with driver assist systems
| The following steps are required if one or more driver
assist systems on the vehicle are to be calibrated via the
“Quick-start” procedure (i.e. without first checking and
adjusting the wheel alignment): |
| Before driving the vehicle onto the alignment platform, make
sure there is sufficient space between the vehicle and the
calibration unit. The distance between the calibration unit and
the vehicle must be 120 cm ± 2.5 cm. |
| If the available space is not adequate, move the vehicle
backwards on the alignment platform as required. This allows the
use of the respective floor area. |
| Before starting calibration, read out event memory and
rectify any faults. |
| Vehicle accurately aligned, suspension bounced and rocked
several times. |
| When checking wheel alignment, ensure that sliding plates
and turn tables are not touching end stop. |
