I have seen some threads as to the best way to adjust the rear toe on the R53's by loosening the bolts on the trailing arm. Is this the recommended way to do it on the R56? I installed some new KW coilovers, camber plates, adjustable endlinks and lower control arms this weekend, but it wasn't immediately apparent as to how to adjust the rear toe.

 

Same way as R53, there are some access holes in the plastic that keeps you from seeing the place where the trailing arm connects with the frame.

 

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but the moment I suggested this to an alignment shop (not suspension specialists, just the local bridgestone tyre place), they said they would have no part in adjusting the rear toe cos there are no adjustments. I told him that you can just loosen the bolts, but he said he was "brought up to do things properly," and he doesn't want to be responsible for an accident if a bolt loosens. Am i right in saying that the guy is an idiot?

 

You are correct, he is an idiot. They designed the suspension to be aligned like that, that's why they put an access flap in there.
