- When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening must be carried out under unladen conditions with tires on ground. Spilled oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Always wipe out any spilled oil.

- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and lubricant are full. Jack, hand tools and mats are in designated positions.

- After servicing suspension parts, always check wheel alignment.
- Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new self-lock nuts are pre-oiled, tighten as they are.
- Carry out a shakedown driving for (approximately) 1,000 miles or 2,000 km to adjust the suspension parts after the replacement.
- Before starting and after the sports driving, always check for the damage on Bilstein DampTronic* and the oil leakage.*: The Bilstein DampTronic is the trademark owned by Thyssen Krupp Bilstein Suspension GmbH, Germany.
