Alignment: Description and Operation

General information 

Note:  
^

Wheel alignment should not be checked until the vehicle has completed 1000 to 2000 km, when the coil springs have had time to settle.

^

Vibrations can also be caused by excessive residual imbalance and/or radial runout of the wheels.

Wheel alignment must always be checked with Audi-approved wheel alignment equipment.

The alignment check must always include both front and rear axles.

^

When making adjustments, try to obtain the specified settings as accurately as possible.

This is important to achieve proper handling and road behavior.

If the position of the rear axle and the overall running direction of the vehicle is not taken into account, this can result in a crooked steering wheel.

Steering wheel and steering column are marked. 

Do not change this position.

A - Line marking on steering wheel

B - Punch mark on steering column

Otherwise centering of toothed shaft cannot be guaranteed.

Steering columns supplied as spare parts do not have a punch mark.

Tightening torques: 

Socket-head bolt (12 mm), Item 1: 55 Nm

If the steering column or steering wheel have been replaced, this marking must be made again after checking wheel alignment and test driving the
vehicle.

Wheel alignment must be checked: 

^

If the vehicle shows handling problems.

^

If there is accident damage.

^

If suspension components have been removed,

^

If tires are worn unevenly.
