Welcome to the site!
First off you need to get a manual if you don't have one. If you do, then the tolerances and how to check are in there. What model and year do you have?
If you have never checked before, then it is kinda hard to tell you how. A little up and down is OK but it's the side to side that is usually the dead give away.
Others in here are a lot more wordy than me, and they will be along shortly....

The manual don't lie (much). I doubt you can even feel it, it says that it is more of a feeling thing than a measurement thing unless it is tore completely down and placed on a jig.
