Ask your dealer. They should be able to give you a print out of the specs Mine did.

I'll give it a try. Last time I spoke to them they thought I had a Movano.

Excellent . This is exactly what I was looking for.

To avoid any tyre wear issues, can i suggest a total toe of 15' split equally left to right. Still within spec, but at the top end.

Ah Roger, sounds like you know what all that means, any chance of a basic explanation?

Thanks in advance.

No such thing as basic in suspension alignment. A complex subject to say the least.

Try here though for some useful info: www.wheels-inmotion.co.uk/tracking.htm
