Pickles Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 [quote user="Bugbear"]"angles ripage AV" AdvisoryNote on CT today..[/quote]I think it's the slip angle: looks like your front steering geometry is getting near the limits - may be in need of a tracking adjustment.RegardsPickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clair Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Looking at a CT site:ripage: tendance d'une roue à s'écarter de la trajectoire de la roue opposéeshifting: a wheel tends to deviate from the path of the opposite wheel écart angulaire relevé supérieur à 2° entre les deux roues angle mesured above 2° between the two wheels ripage excessif (véhicule contrôlé roues en lignes droite, roulant de 5 à 7 km/h): ripage supérieur à 10 m/km (note : écart supérieur à 0°34')Excessive shifting (controlled vehicle wheels in straight lines, rolling 5 at 7 km / h): deviation superior to 10 m/km (note: difference greater than 0°34')Looks like your car needs a tracking adjustment [:)].

Bugsy Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 Thank you all ............ it was advisory but it is typical of Jeep Cherokees for some reason. Anyway its good for another couple of years, touching wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I just got some new tyres and they said this to me - the bushes and linkages relax over time and the wheels need adjustment. WTFlamin hell are you doing with a Cherokee- can't you find a quicker way to throw money down the drain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 It part of the family Dog. Its nearly 14 years old and has 130,000 miles on it. Motor is perfect but a bit thirsty.We only use it for shopping now as its covered in 'off-roading' dents and therefore perfect for french supermarket car parks.I'll probably park it in the field when it dies and plant flowers in it.
