bearing and suspension parts of accident vehicles. These unno‐
ticed damages can result in serious damage to the later
functioning of the vehicle. Therefore, independently from the
wheel alignment that has to be carried out, the components listed
here must be checked, following the procedure and order descri‐
bed. If no difference was found with the specifications when
checking the wheel alignment, this means that no deformation
was found in the running gear.
Visual inspection and testing the working of the steering system
♦ Visual inspection of deformations and cracks
♦ Checking the play in the bar joints and the steering box
♦ Visual inspection to check for damage to the dustguard and
grease bellows
♦ Examine the electrical and hydraulic conduits and the hoses
looking for wear due to friction, cuts and bends
♦ Check whether the hydraulic pipes, the bolted seals and the
steering box are free of by

tached.
♦ Check the proper functioning of the complete steering angle
to both sides. The steering wheel should need uniform force
to turn and the movement should not be obstructed.
Visual inspection and testing the working of the running gear
• The tests specified below must be carried out in the following
order
♦ Check all the components in the assembly overview for de‐
formations, cracks and other damage
♦ Replace the damaged parts
♦ The wheels should only be aligned using SEAT approved
equipment.
Visual inspection and check of the working of the wheels and tyres
♦ Check the balance and concentricity
♦ Check whether the tyres have cuts or marks from knocks on
the sides and profile
♦ Check the tyre pressure. Tyre pressures are given on the in‐
side of the fuel tank cap. Take a look in the ⇒ Instructions for
rims and tyres; Rep. gr. 44 .
♦ Replace the tyre or tyres if safety is endangered.
If the rim and/or the tyre is damaged, the tyre must be replaced.
This also applies if the circumstances of the accident and the
damage to the vehicle indicate possible damage which is not visi‐
ble.
Another factor is the age of the tyre: tyres should not be older than
6 years.
1. Checklist for evaluating running gear of accident vehicles 1

Toledo 2013 ➤
Visual check and operation test for the vehicle in general

Also check other vehicle systems, for example:
♦ Braking system, including ABS
♦ Visual inspection and testing the working of the exhaust sys‐
tem and protection of the occupants
The verification, adjustment and specification values are set out
in the corresponding Workshop Manual / ELSA.
The revision described here for accident vehicles refers to the
running gear and is not meant as a complete guide for the general
vehicle.
Check of the electronic systems on the vehicle
For safety-relevant systems such as ABS/EDS, airbag, electron‐
ically controlled chassis systems, electro-mechanical or electro-
hydraulic servo-steering as well as other servo-system for the
driver it is necessary to use the vehicle diagnosis, measuring and
information system to check whether a DTC is stored in the DTC
memory. If a fault has been registered in the memories of the
mentioned systems, repair these errors according to the instruc‐
tions in the Workshop Manual/ELSA. When the repair has been
carried out, the affected systems must be verified again for pos‐
sible errors in the memories to ensure that the function is now
stable.

6.5.1 Checking outer constant velocity joint

The joint is to be dismantled to renew the grease if it is heavily
soiled, or to check the running surfaces of the balls for wear and
damage.
Removal:
– Mark the position of the ball hub relative to the cage and the
housing before removing, use an electric pen or a softening
stone.
– Swing ball hub and ball cage.
– Remove the balls one by one.
– Turn cage until the two rectangular windows -arrow- align with
joint body.
– Take out cage

respect correctness
– Swing segment of hub into square cage window.

– Remove the hub from the cage.
The six balls for each joint belong to a tolerance group. Check the
grooved shaft, the hub, the cage and the ball bearings for scratch‐
es (pitting) and tracks from grinding. Excessive backlash in the
joint will cause knocking or jolts under load change. Smoothing
and traces of wear of the balls are no reason to change the joint.
Installation
– Insert half of the recommended amount of grease (40 grams)
on the casing of the joint.
– Fit cage with hub into joint body.
– Press in opposing balls one after the other; the original position
of the hub relative to the cage and joint body must be restored.
– Fit new retaining ring into hub.
– Distribute remaining grease in boot.
6.5.2 Checking inner constant velocity joint

Removal:
The joint is to be dismantled to renew the grease if it is heavily
soiled, and to check the running surfaces and the balls for wear
and damage.

Toledo 2013 ➤
– Swing ball hub and ball cage.

– Remove the casing of the seal in the direction of the arrow.
– Press balls out of cage.
Note
Ball hub and joint body are paired. Do not mix them up.
– Tip ball hub out of ball cage via ball track -arrows-.
– Check joint body, ball hub, ball cage and balls for pitting and
traces of seizing.
Excessive backlash in the joint will cause knocking or jolts under
load change. In this case the joint must be replaced. Smoothing
and traces of wear of the balls are no reason to renew the joint.
Installation
– Insert hub into cage via the two chamfers. The hub can be
installed in any position. Press balls into cage.
The ball hub has two different distancespermitted

surfaces, one large and one small.

– Place the hub with the cage and the balls vertically in the
housing of the joint with a small distance -b- facing the open
part of the joint.
– The beveled edge of the internal diameter of the ball hub must
be visible after inserting the hub.

basicbysetting.
The tyre pressure monitoring display compares the speed and
therefore the rolling surface perimeter of each individual wheel
using the ABS sensors. The tyre pressure monitoring display il‐
luminates when the rolling circumference of a wheel changes.
The rolling circumference changes when:
♦ the tyre pressure is inadequate
♦ the tyre exhibits structural damages
♦ the vehicle is loaded heavy on one side
♦ the wheels of one axle carry a heavier load, e.g. when driving
with a trailer or on long uphill or downhill slopes
♦ snow chains are fitted

It is recommended to check the rear and front axle during align‐
ment. Otherwise the performance of the vehicle cannot be guar‐
anteed.
Note
♦ It is recommended that the vehicle alignment must be checked
after the first 1,000 to 2,000 km, as this is when the spiral
springs have settled into position.
♦ When making adjustments, adhere to the relevant specifica‐
tions as closely as possible.
♦ After aligning the axles, the zero balance of the steering angle
sender - G85- must be set ⇒ Vehicle diagnostic tester
If the position of the rear axle is not taken into consideration then
the steering wheel may be twisted.

WARNING
To ensure that the correct measurement is taken, first com‐

pensate for out-of-true rims.
If runout compensation is not performed, it is not possible to
adjust toe-in correctly!
Follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the axle meas‐

urement equipment
– Compensate for the warp of the rims.
– Lower the vehicle and stabilise it.
– Fit the brake pedal lock - VAG 1869/2- between the brake
pedal and the driver's seat.
2.4.1 “Zero” vehicle inclination

If measured values are outside specified tolerances, this may be
because the vehicle is inclined.
Vehicles with the steering wheel on the right hand side of the ve‐
hicle, or with an automatic gearbox, for example, may be inclined
slightly to one side.
This is due to the installation position of the assemblies and their
associated weight transfer and is normal.
The line 0 on the roof represents the horizontal position (position
“zero”) of the vehicle.

Toledo 2013 ➤
– Always check both sides, the distance between the wheel

centre and the lower edge of the wheel housing dimension
-a- of the rear.
– Correct the difference if it exists.
The front axle may be balanced by attaching balance weights on‐
to the suspension turret on the corresponding side, in the engine
compartment.
The rear axle may be balanced by fitting balance weights on the
corresponding side of the boot.
Anything may be used as a counterweight, for example, bags of
sand weighing about 10 kg.

2.6 Spare part no. according to the chassis

type
Various types of running gear are installed depending on engine
and equipment level. These are identified by the PR numbers.
The PR numbers are critical in determining the wheel alignment
specifications.
The running gear version fitted in the vehicle is indicated on the
vehicle data sticker by the PR number for the front axle.
The vehicle data sticker can be found in the spare wheel well and
in the service booklet.
– The information of the front axle PR number is, according to
the running gear installed, specified in its own vehicle infor‐
mation in ELSA/in.
In this example the vehicle is equipped with the standard running
gear G46 -arrow-.
♦ Allocation ⇒ electronic parts catalogue (ETKA) .
2.7 Front axle camber: correction

If the measured values fall outside the tolerance range, the lateral
inclination should be first tested and balanced if necessary
⇒ page 126 .
Note
♦ The camber only has to be corrected when repairing the body‐

work. Camber cannot be adjusted. It can be determined how‐
ever, by moving the subframe slightly!
♦ Only move the strut support to the left or to the right, never to
the rear of the vehicle.
– Remove soundproofing.
– Loosen bolts -1- to -4- for securing subframe to body.
The camber adjustment range is limited by the tolerances of the
holes in the subframe. If the specified value is not reached by
shifting the subframe, this and the body must be inspected
⇒ page 1 .
– Now camber may be adjusted to specification by moving sub‐
frame.
– Tighten new bolts for subframe to body to specified torque plus
extra turn angle.
After shifting the subframe/steering box, clearance between the
steering column universal joint and the cut-out in the bulkhead
must be checked.
– Fold the floor cover slightly backwards.

– Adjust the convergence by rotating the steering bar to the left
or right. To do this use an open-end spanner on the hexagon
-arrow- on the track rod.
Ensure that, after the rotation of the steering rod, the dust covers
are not twisted!
Twisted boots wear out quickly.
– Tighten the counter nut -1-.
Tightening torque: 50 Nm.
– Check toe values again.
It is possible that, after tightening the counter nut -1-, the adjust‐
ment value may change a little.
If this value, however, is not more than 2' from the specification,
the adjustment is correct.
2.11 Checking left and right-hand wheel lock

This test only needs to be done when:
♦ The maximum rotation to each side differs by over 2º, from the
centre position
♦ The tyres on one side scrape the components of the front axle
or the bodywork when the steering wheel is turned all the way
to the limit.
♦ The turning angle for one side is different from that of the other
The distance between the front axle components and the tyres
when the steering is turned to the limit -arrow- should be the same
on both sides.

rotating the track rods to the left and right.
Example:
If the rotational limit to the right is less than that of the left:
– Loosen track rod lock nuts.
– Turn left tie rod (unscrew from tie rod head).
– Turn right tie rod equally, but in reverse direction (screw in on
the tie rod head).
– Check complete toe.
Once the adjustment is done, the total convergence value should
coincide with the specification.
– Tighten the counter nuts.
It is possible that, after tightening the counter nut -1-, the adjust‐
ment value may change a little.
If this value, however, is not more than 2' from the specification,
the adjustment is correct.
Ensure that, after the rotation of the steering rod, the dust covers
are not twisted!

3.1 Causes of imbalance when driving

The causes for the unevenness while driving may be different:
amongst others, it may be due to ear of the tyres. When driving,
tread wear is not uniformly distributed over the tyre. Therefore,
there are small irregularities affecting wheel balance while driving
even though the wheels are correctly balanced.
These small imbalanced actions cannot be perceived on the
steering wheel, but they are there. They increase tyre wear and
reduce the operating life of the tyres.
Recommendation
In order to ensure
• optimum degree of safety Protected by copyright. Copying for private or commercial purposes, in part or in whole, is not
• optimum level of driving stability and
• uniform wear
throughout a tyres service life, we recommend having the wheels
and tyres balanced at least twice during the tyres service life.
3.2 Balancing
Before balancing the wheels /tyres, the following conditions
should be met:
• The tyre pressure must be correct.
• The tyre tread should not have lateral wear.
• The tread depth must be at least 4 mm.
• The tyre should not in any way be cut, punctured or contain
foreign bodies, etc.
• The suspension, steering and suspension rods including the
shock absorbers should be in perfect condition.
• A test drive should first be made.
3.3 Test drive prior to balancing

If a complaint is received for “imbalance while driving” the vehicle
should be taken for a test drive before starting the balancing.

Toledo 2013 ➤
♦ This will determine the type of imbalance.

♦ The range of speeds at which the imbalance appears is also
recorded.
– Raise the vehicle on a lifting platform immediately after the
road test.
– Mark the assembly point on the tyre.
Location of the tyre Marked with …
left front tyre LF
right front tyre RF

– Unbolt wheels from vehicle.
– Balance wheels.
3.4 Balancing on a static wheel balancer

• Road test has been carried out ⇒ page 134 .
Attaching the wheel onto the wheel balancer
Note
When balancing tyres, please remember that cleanliness is ab‐
solutely essential, as indeed it is in the case of any other repair
work you carry out. It is essential for obtaining satisfactory results.
Dirt and rust in the contact areas and the centre opening of the
wheel may distort the results.
– Clean the contact surfaces, the centre of the wheel and the
recess on the inside of the wheel before mounting the wheel
on the wheel balancer.
– Fasten the whole wheel on the balancer.
Procedure for balancing the wheel rim / tyre
– Lower the wheel balancing equipment protection cover.
– Turn the wheel or tyre on the balancer.
– Check the tyre tread while turning the wheel.
Note
Balancing will not eliminate noise due to lateral wear, flattening

or significant wear in the tread indicator. In this case, the tyre
should be replaced.
– Check the concentricity of the wheel / tyre.

If not all the wheel turns in a concentric manner, and if no flatten‐
ing has been detected, there may be radial or axial run-out.
– Check the radial and axial run-out of the wheel ⇒ page 137 .
If the radial and axial run-out do not exceed the permitted toler‐
ance levels, balance the wheel and the tyre.
3. Imbalance while driving due to rims and tyres: causes and solutions 135
Toledo 2013 ➤
Note
♦ Do not attach counterweights of over 60 g to the wheels.

♦ If a counterweight more than 60g is required, the tyres should
be “Match balanced” ⇒ page 139 .
♦ The display on the balancing equipment should read 0
grammes.
♦ The vibration control system - VAS 6230- can be used as an
alternative to matching ⇒ page 136 .
– Fit the wheel on the vehicle and tighten the bolts to the required
torques ⇒ page 110 .
Test drive.
– After balancing the wheels and tyres, carry out a road test.
If any imbalance is detected during the test drive, this may be due
to tolerances in the centre of the wheel.
In unfavourable circumstances, the tolerances of the wheel com‐
ponents and the wheel hubs may be added together, this can also
cause imbalance while driving. These can be removed with a fin‐
ish balancer ⇒ page 136 .
3.5 Vibration control system - VAS 6230 A-

The vibration control system - VAS 6230 A- has a range of addi‐
tional features over and above regular static wheel balancing.
One peculiarity of this system is it is able to check the radial force
of the wheel while rolling.
For this purpose, a roller presses against the wheel with a force
of approx. 635 kg. In this way, the vertical force applied by the
tyre onto the road while driving is simulated.
The vertical forces vary depending upon the radial and axial run-
out and the rigidity of the tyres.
The -VAS 6230 A- detects and memorises the position of maxi‐
mum measured radial force in the tyre. Next, the position of the
smallest space between the rim contour and the centre of the
same is measured.
3.6 Balancing with a Finish Balancer

Note
♦ Before using a finish balancer the operator should receive in‐

struction from the manufacturer of the equipment.
♦ Position vehicle on the sensor platforms (front wheels only on
front-wheel drive vehicle, all four wheels on four-wheel drive
vehicle) in order to balance the wheels.
If you determine a residual imbalance greater than 20 grams

when balancing the wheels, you should rotate the mounting po‐
sition of the wheel on the hub.

Toledo 2013 ➤
– Mark the point at which the imbalance is indicated.

– Unbolt the wheel and rotate its position on the hub so that the
marking points downwards.
Note
The wheel hub should not rotate during this process.
– Fit the wheel on the vehicle and tighten the bolts to the required
torques ⇒ page 110 .
– Use the finish balancer to check whether the imbalance is now
below 20 grammes.
Note
The counterweight should only be modified if the imbalance is

under 20 grammes.
– If necessary, undo theProtected

wheelbybolts again.
– Rotate the wheel relative respect
to thetohub once more,

or two wheel bolt holes further.
– Tighten the wheels as shown above.
Note
Only if the imbalance is below 20 g can it be modified by using a

counterweight.
– Balance the wheel until the imbalance is below 5 g.

– If it has not been done, tighten the wheel bolts to the corre‐
sponding torque ⇒ page 110 .
WARNING
Always tighten the wheel bolts to the required torques using a

torque wrench.
3.7 Radial run-out and axial run-out of the

wheel rim / tyre
Radial and lateral runout occur when the wheel and tyre do not
run absolutely true.
For technical reasons, 100% true running is not possible.
For this reason, the manufacturer specifies certain tolerance lev‐
els for these elements.
Mounting the tyre in an unfavourable position on the wheel can
cause the maximum allowed tolerance for wheel with tyre to be
exceeded.
The table gives the maximum permitted tolerance levels for com‐
plete wheels.

3.10 Match balancing
Note
When radial or lateral runout of the wheel and tyre coincide, the
imbalance of the wheel is amplified by the tyre.
• Before commencing Match balancing of the wheels,

Protected the tyre
should be driven until reaching a set temperature. This re‐
moves any flattening.
Match balancing process
– Deflate the tyre.
– Press the tyre beads off the rim flanges.
– Grease the tyre bead completely with assembly paste ⇒ Parts
catalogue .
– Turn the tyre by 180° (1/2 turn) with respect to the rim.
– Pump up tyre to approx. 4 bar.

– Fasten the whole wheel on the balancer.
– Check the concentricity or radial and axial run-out.
Toledo 2013 ➤
Note
♦ If the theoretical values for radial and axial run-out are not ex‐
ceeded, the wheel can be balanced to 0 grammes. See theo‐
retical values ⇒ page 139 .
♦ If the theoretical values for radial and/or axial run-out are ex‐
ceeded, proceed as follows.
– Deflate the tyre and separate the tyre bead from the rim con‐
tour tabs
– Inflate the tyre to 4 bars again and check the concentricity.

permitted unless authorised by SEAT S.A. S.A does not guarantee or accept any liability with
♦ If the theoretical values for radial and /or axial run-out are still
exceeded, proceed as follows.
– Press the tyre off the rim flanges again as described above.
If the radial and/ or lateral run-out are still not within the specified
values, check the wheel for radial and / or lateral run-out:
⇒ page 137 .
When the values for the radial and axial rim eccentricity are lo‐
cated within the tolerances, the radial and axial eccentricity of the
tyre is too high. In this case, the tyre has to be replaced.
Note
As assembly paste has been used between the tyres and the
contour of the wheel rim during the assembly of the wheel, ac‐
celeration and sharp braking should be avoided for the first 100
to 200 km. Otherwise the tyre may spin on the wheel rim and all
the above work will have been in vain.
3.11 Lateral deviation: verification

Points to check before and during the test drive:
– Check for possible damage to suspension components of the
front and rear axles.
– Check tyre pressure.
– Check tyres visually for exterior damage, punctures, cuts,
bulging sides, flattening and/or damage to the tread.
– Ask the client whether there have been any flat tyres which
were repaired in a workshop; replace the tyre if necessary;
– Check tyres for uniform wear and tread depth.
– Check all the tyres are the same type, make and have the
same tread pattern.
– If the tyres do not have a stipulated rotation direction, check
whether the tyre DOT markings are on the outside. If not, the
rims / tyres have been previously interchanged;

Toledo 2013 ➤
– The road surface should be straight and flat, without lateral

cambers or dips.
– Carry out the test drive in the company of client, following the
above-mentioned points(the client should drive in order to
demonstrate the complaint).
Note
The test can not be carried out in the event of strong side winds
If the complaint is justified, the wheel rims / tyres should be inter‐

changed as described below:
Before commencing, the following instructions should be ob‐
served. Otherwise, the work may be carried out in vain
Note
♦ Mark the wheels / tyres before interchanging for the first time,
for example with LF, RF, LR and RR.
♦ After interchanging the wheels or turning the tyre on the wheel
rim, the performance of the vehicle should be checked on a
test drive. Make a note of how and what has changed.
♦ Assess the intensity of or possible modification to the lateral
pull.
♦ It is also important that the test drives are made by the same
person and along the same roads. It is best to drive along the
road in both directions.
♦ Replacing a tyre with a new tyre does not necessarily guar‐
antee that the pulling to one side will be eliminated. A selective

4.1 Calibrating adaptive cruise control

Make sure before calibration of the Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) that the sensor, its holders and the fasteners are not dam‐
aged and attached properly. Where necessary, damaged com‐
ponents are to be repaired or renewed.
Before adjustment of the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system,
the event memory must be read out and faults, if any, rectified.
The “measured misalignment-angle value” of the ACC control unit
will indicate whether or not the sensor is out of adjustment.
Calibration of the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) may only be ad‐
justed by using a wheel alignment unit approved by VW/AUDI!
Correct adjustment is an essential prerequisite for perfect func‐
tioning of the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system.

2 General repair instructions

The care, cleanliness and use of tools in perfect working order
are the basic conditions to repair a steering box efficiently and
without problems. It is taken for granted that the general safety
regulations are also applicable to the repairs.
To avoid repetition, a number of notes that are generally applica‐
ble to the individual procedures described in this manual are
summarised here. These regulations are valid for this repair man‐
ual.
⇒ “2.1 Steering box”, page 151
⇒ “2.2 Gaskets, seals”, page 151
⇒ “2.3 Bolts, nuts”, page 151
⇒ “2.4 Electrical components”, page 152
⇒ “2.5 Guided fault finding”, page 152
2.1 Steering box

♦ Thoroughly clean unions and adjacent areas before separat‐
ing.
♦ When mounting the steering box, make sure the sleeves are
correctly positioned between the console and the steering box.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them to
prevent them from getting dirty. Use paper or plastic sheets.
Do not use cloths with lint.
♦ Only fit clean parts: remove the wrapping of the spares just
before use.
♦ Only use lubricants and sealants with specified reference
numbers. Protected by copyright. Copying for private or commercial purposes, in part or in whole, is not
♦ Cover the open parts carefully if the repair is not going to be

carried out immediately.
2.2 Gaskets, seals

♦ Basically, always replace all the seals and joints.
♦ After removing the joints: check and remove any possible
edges and damage on the support surfaces of the casings and
the shafts.
♦ Remove all remains of liquid sealants from the surfaces, make
sure that no sealant falls into the steering box casing.
2.3 Bolts, nuts

♦ Loosen and tighten bolts or securing nuts for covers and hous‐
ings diagonally.
♦ Do not tilt the sensitive components, such as the servomotor
with the control unit, diagonally loosen and fasten in stages.
♦ The specified tightening torques are for non-lubricated nuts
and bolts.
♦ Always renew self-locking nuts and bolts.
2. General repair instructions 151

Toledo 2013 ➤
2.4 Electrical components

No doubt you have been shocked when touching a metal object.
This is due to the electrostatic charge in the human body. This
charge could cause problems if the electric components of the
steering box are touched.
– Before working with electrical components, touch an object
that has been earthed, for example water pipes or a platform.
Do not touch the contacts.
2.5 Guided fault finding

♦ Vehicle diagnosis device
♦ Before carrying out repairs on the power-assisted steering,
determine the cause of the fault as accurately as possible by
using the “Guided fault finding”, the “Vehicle self-diagnosis”
and the “Measurement module”of the vehicle diagnostic, test‐
ing and information system .
Test requirements
• The battery voltage must be at least 11.5 V
• All the fuses correct, according to the electric wiring diagrams
• All the fuses in the battery casing correct
• Check the gearbox earth connections
– If there is corrosion or defective connections; if necessary re‐
pair them.
