Solution
1. Preparation
  • Gather all necessary tools and parts.
  • Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
  • Jack up the vehicle and secure it with jack stands.
2. Adjust Tire Pressure
  • Use a tire pressure gauge to check the pressure of each tire.
  • Inflate or deflate tires to the manufacturer-recommended pressure (usually found on the driver’s door jamb or in the owner's manual).
3. Wheel Alignment
  • Set up the alignment machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Adjust the front and rear toe, camber, and caster angles to factory specifications.
  • Confirm the alignment settings are within the specified range for the CR-V model.
4. Inspect and Replace Suspension Components (if necessary)
  • Visually inspect struts and shocks for leaks or damage.
  • Replace any worn or damaged components such as control arms, bushings, or tie rods, if necessary.
  • Reassemble any components removed for inspection.
5. Tire Rotation
  • Rotate the tires to ensure even wear across all tires.
  • Follow the proper rotation pattern (e.g., front to back, side to side) based on the tire type (directional or non-directional).
  • Ensure lug nuts are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque (typically around 80-100 ft-lbs).
