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.

Wheels should not be aligned 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.
