For example, measure dimension - a - from center of wheel to lower edge of wheel housing using a tape measure before starting work.

Measurement must be performed in curb weight position (unloaded condition).
-

Note measured value. It will be required for tightening bolts/nuts.

Before lifting corresponding wheel suspension, vehicle must be strapped down using tensioning straps T10038 at lift arms of lifting platform.

If the vehicle is not secured, there is danger that the vehicle could slip off the lift!
-

Remove wheel.

-

Turn wheel hub far enough until one of the holes for wheel bolts is on top.

-

Install wheel hub support T10149 with wheel bolt to wheel hub.

Tightening of the respective bolts/nuts must then only occur after dimension - a - which was measured before installation between the wheel hub
center and the lower edge of wheel housing, has been attained.

-

Using engine/transmission jack V.A.G. 1383 A, lift wheel bearing housing until dimension - a - has been reached.

CAUTION!
^

Do not lift or lower vehicle when the engine/transmission jack V.A.G. 1383 A stands below the vehicle.

^

Do not leave engine/transmission jack V.A.G. 1383 A beneath the vehicle any longer than necessary.

-

Tighten respective bolts/nuts.
