Wheel Alignment

lo all,

Is it true that you need a full tank of fuel when your RRS goes in for a wheel alignment?

2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Orkney Grey

LR's approved procedure is full tank or equivalent mass added to vehicle. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

From the workshop manual:

Quote:
CAUTION: When checking or adjusting front or rear steering geometry, the vehicle must either have a full fuel
tank or have sufficient weight placed in the vehicle's load space to give the equivalent weight of a full fuel tank. The
weight must be evenly distributed at the front and the right hand side of the load space. The fuel tank capacity is 86.3
litres (18.9 Imperial gallons) (22.7 US gallons).
