Wheel Alignment

Wheel Alignment

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

Wheel alignment checks must always include both the front and rear axles.

Otherwise centering of toothed shaft cannot be guaranteed!

- Perform the alignment using the wheel alignment computer.

All information required for an alignment is stored in the wheel alignment computer.

• Wheels should not be aligned until the vehicle has been driven 1,000 to 2,000 km, since it takes this long for the coil springs to settle.

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