Just redid my alignment of my Elite i20 at Madhu's Tyre Center (Nikhil's place) in Lalbagh. Diagnosed a right rear wheel camber misalignment (though within tolerance limits). Mohsin at Madhu's said not to worry about it for now and if it goes beyond limits, might have to change some parts at Hyundai AS*to correct it as rear wheel camber is not adjustable.
Checked with my SA at Hyundai (know him very well). He mentioned that correcting this is to change the strut (which is not expensive).
Can any of you guys give me some advice on this - do I need to do anything for now? Car is running perfectly, steering centred perfectly and no issues in driving.

The rear wheel camber depends on the rear spring. Changing the front strut is not going to help the rear camber. If the rear spring is broken on one side when the camber can go out of spec. However, the chances of coil spring breaking are almost nil more so if yours is a new car.

Even my i20 has rear camber misalignment but total value is within limits. I have not faced any issues with abnormal tyre wear till now. I suggest you do not worry about it as long as you are not seeing uneven rear tyre wear.

If it’s within tolerance limits, it’s NOT a misalignment. Don’t bother about it. There is no need to change the struts.

Thanks - mine is a 2016 December car which has only run about 8000km.

Our Elite i20 has Front Camber Misalignment. The Camber is Negative even after Replacing Front Shockers (only dampers), Strut Mounts.

Any pointers?
