Removing the wheel
>» Use the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver
handle to completely remove the topmost
wheel bolt and set it aside on a clean surface
> fig. 273.
> Screw the threaded end of the alignment pin
from the tool kit hand-tight into the empty bolt
hole > fig. 274.
> Then remove the other wheel bolts as described
above.
> Take off the wheel leaving the alignment pin in
the bolt hole >@).
Putting on the compact spare wheel
> Lift the spare wheel and carefully slide it over
the alignment pin to guide it in place >@.
> Use the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver
handle to screw in and tighten all wheel bolts
slightly.
> Remove the alignment pin and insert and tight-
en the remaining wheel bolt slightly like the
rest.
> Turn the jack handle counter-clockwise to lower
the vehicle until the jack* is fully released.
> Use the wheel bolt wrench to tighten all wheel
bolts firmly > page 353. Tighten them cross-
wise, from one bolt to the (approximately) op-
posite one, to keep the wheel centered.
@) Note
When removing or installing the wheel, the
rim
could hit the brake rotor and damage the
rotor. Work carefully and have a second per-
son help you.
G) Tips
Never use the hexagonal socket in the handle
of the screwdriver to loosen or tighten the
wheel bolts.
— Pull the reversible blade from the screwdriv:
er before you use the hexagonal socket in
the handle to turn the wheel bolts.
— When mounting tires with unidirectional
tread design make sure the tread pattern is
pointed the right way > page 356.
— The wheel bolts should be clean and easy to
turn. Check for dirt and corrosion on the
356
mating surfaces of both the wheel and the
hub. Remove all dirt from these surfaces be-
fore remounting the wheel.
Tires with unidirectional tread design
Tires with unidirectional tread design must be
mounted with their tread pattern pointed in the
right direction.
Using a spare tire with a tread pattern
intended for use in a specific direction
When using a spare tire with a tread pattern in-
tended for use in a specific direction, please note
the following:
— The direction of rotation is marked by an arrow
on the side of the tire.
— If the spare tire has to be installed in the incor-
rect direction, use the spare tire only tempora-
rily since the tire will not be able to achieve its
optimum performance characteristics with re-
gard to aquaplaning, noise and wear.
— We recommend that you pay particular atten-
tion to this fact during wet weather and that
you
adjust your speed to match road condi-
tions.
— Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it
installed on your vehicle as soon as possible to
restore the handling advantages of a unidirec-
tional tire.
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information > page 326 if you
are going to use a spare tire which is different
from the tires on your vehicle.
After you change a tire:
— Check the tire pressure on the spare immedi-
ately after installation.
— Have the wheel bolt tightening torque
checked with a torque wrench as soon as pos-
sible by your authorized Audi dealer ora
qualified service station.
— With steel and alloy wheel rims, the wheel
bolts are correctly tightened at a torque of
90 ft lbs (120 Nm).

Snow chains
For technical reasons, the use of snow chains on

tire fails, mount the spare tire in place of a rear
tire. Install the snow chains on the rear tire that
you removed, and install that in place of the
front tire that failed.

must be checked as soon as possible. The
tire pressure is available on > page 330,
