how to fix a pulling issue in my Volvo XC60 536 (2017-Present)

Solution

1. Preparation

1. Gather necessary tools and parts.
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
3. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery (if required for steering system work).

2. Tire Pressure Adjustment

1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the pressure in all tires.
2. Inflate or deflate tires to the manufacturer-recommended PSI as found in the owner’s manual or on the driver’s door jamb sticker.

3. Alignment Adjustment

1. Position the vehicle on an alignment rack.
2. Adjust the toe, camber, and caster angles to meet manufacturer specifications.
   • Toe: typically between 0.05° to 0.15°.
   • Camber: generally within -0.5° to +0.5°.
   • Caster: must be equal on both sides.
3. Test drive the vehicle post-adjustment to confirm straight tracking.

4. Suspension Component Inspection and Replacement

1. Visually inspect suspension components, such as control arms and bushings.
2. If any component is damaged, remove it using a suitable socket set and replace it with a new part.
3. Torque all fasteners to the manufacturer’s specifications.

5. Tire Inspection and Rotation

1. Inspect all tires for uneven wear patterns; replace if necessary.
2. Rotate tires if they are still in good condition to ensure even wear.
