Wheel Alignment






Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment must only performed using VW/Audi-approved wheel alignment equipment.

Each time wheels are aligned, both front and rear wheels must be aligned.

Otherwise, proper vehicle driveability cannot be ensured.

• Axle alignment should not be performed until the vehicle has been driven 1,000-2,000 km, since it takes this long for the suspension to settle.

• The individual specifications should be followed as exactly as possible when making adjustments.

When Vehicle Alignment is Necessary

• Vehicle shows handling problems.

• Involved in an accident.

• Axle components were removed.

• Tire wear patterns are uneven.
