sa good year servitek nasa 300 pesos lang alignment (toe in out) pero sa machine nila (3D alignment) makikita na kung kailangan mo ng camber...

kung kasama rear camber mga 1k na yan...

*yapoy, grabe mura naman dyan, dito sa sta rosa laguna 1.2k ang wheel alignment computerized or digital tapus 3 months warranty pwde ka bumalik after 3 months for another check up ng alignment. mas mura pala dyan kung may 1k ako dyan makakapag pa camber na pala ako. sana mura lang pa camber dito sa sat ko pa malaman eh

Yup, makikita yung tolerance pagkatapos nilang I-input yung vehicle name & model. Usually ang camber ng mga kotse nasa -0.9 to 0.1degree sa likod kung front wheel drive.

Nasa 1k lang ang allignment unless kung kailangang magpa-fabricate ng bolt, washer... para maitama ang camber.

Mostly pag nagluko ang Camber sa likod at malaki ang diprensya, kailangan na ring icheck ang bushing, bearing at suspension. In short, kung magpa-fabricate pa ng materials para maitama ang Camber, unahin mo muna ang repack ng bearing lalo na kung matagal ng di naga-grasahan yan, then check ang mga bushing...

Wheel alignment depends on those three parameters: toe, camber and caster.

You can have a wheel alignment check done first. If any of the three parameters is off from spec or exceeds tolerances, you can have those re-adjusted to factory spec as long as your suspension components are still good.

On a Jazz, only the front wheels can be realigned. If the rear wheels are out of alignment, you can't adjust that. Your only option is to buy a new torsion beam.

From experience on my own Jazz, it's usually the toe and camber that need adjustment every now and then. Wheel alignment checking should be done once a year, it's cheap maintenance. If your alignment specs are still good, you can get away with not having to readjust anything, but the only way to know for sure is by visiting a shop and having them check the alignment for you.

Haven't been to Minerva, but you can find a Servitek branch/franchisee almost anywhere these days. The one I frequent is in Bicutan (H-H Tyre Asia Corp.), and they've had my business for about ten years now.

Just do an alignment check at least once a year and you should be fine. A typical wheel alignment and wheel balance job should cost you PhP600-1000, depending on how many wheel weights the mechanics had to slap on your wheels for balance, and how much work was spent adjusting the alignment to spec. It's a case to case basis. The other weekend, my Jazz's toe settings at the left front needed attention, and all it took was PhP300 to fix.

The factory toe, camber and caster settings for wheel alignment should be in the back pages of your Jazz's owner's manual.
