Changing a wheel
Before changing a wheel
Observe the following precautions for your
own and your passenger's safety when chang­
ing a wheel.
• After you experience a tire failure, pull the
car well away from moving traffic and try to
reach
level ground before you stop c:> _&..
• All passengers should leave the car and
move to a safe location (for instance, behind
the guardrail)
c:> _&..
• Engage the parking brake to prevent your
vehicle from rolling unintentionally
c:> _&. .
• Move selector lever to position P c:> ,&..
• If you are towing a trailer, unhitch the trailer

A WARNING
You or your passengers could be injured
while changing a wheel if you do not fol­
low these safety precautions:
-If you have a flat tire, move a safe dis­
tance off the road. Turn off the engine,
turn the eme rgency flashers on and use
other warning devices to alert other mo­
torists.
- Make sure that passengers wait in a safe
place away from the vehicle and well
away from the road and traffic.
- To help prevent the vehicle from moving
suddenly and possibly slipping off the
jack, always fully set the parking brake
and block the wheel diagonally opposite
the wheel being changed. When one
front wheel is lifted off the ground, plac­ ing the Automatic Transmission in P
(Park) will
not prevent the vehicle from
mov ing .
- Before you change a wheel, be sure the
ground is level and firm. If necessary,
use a sturdy board under the jack.

A WARNING ~
-You or your passengers could be injured
while changing a wheel if you do not fo l­
low these safety preca utio ns:
- Position the vehicle jack on ly at the
designated lifting points and align the
jack. Otherwise, the vehicle jack could
slip and cause an injury if it does not
have sufficient hold on the vehicle .
- A soft or unstable surface under the
jack may cause the vehicle to slip off
the jack . Always provide a firm base for
the jack on the ground. If necessa ry,

- On hard, slippery surface (such as t iles)
use a rubber mat or simi lar to prevent
the jack from slipping.
- Only raise your vehicle with the vehicle
jack provided by the fac to ry.
If you use
a vehi cle jack for another vehicle, your
vehicle can slide and cause injury.
- Changes in temperat ure or load can af­
fect the height o f the veh icle .
- Never start the engine when the vehi­ cle is raised, which co uld cause an acc i­
dent.
- Suppo rt the ve hicle securely with ap­
propr iate s tands if work is to be per­

268 What do I do no w?
-Pull the reversible blade from the screw ­
driver before you use the hexagonal
socket in the handle to t urn the whee l
bo lts.
- When mounting tires with
unid ire ctional
t re ad design
make s ure the tread pat­
tern is pointed the right way
¢ page 268.
-The wheel bolts should be clean and easy
to turn. Check for d irt and corrosion on
the mat ing su rfaces of both the whee l
and the hub. Remove all dirt from these
surfaces before remount ing 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
int ended fo r use in a specific dir ection
When us ing a spare tire w ith a tread pattern
i ntended for use in a specific direction, please
note t he following:
- The direction of rotation is marked by an ar ­
row on the side of the tire .
-If the spare t ire has to be installed in the in­
correct direction, use the spare tire only
temporarily since the t ire will not be able to
achieve its optimum perfo rma nce character­
ist ics with rega rd to aquaplaning, noise and
wea r.
- We recommend that you pay particular at­
tent ion to this fact du ring wet weat her and
that you adjust your speed to match road
condit ions .
- Replace the fla t tire w ith a new one and
have it ins talled on your veh icle as soon as
possible to restore the handling advantages
of a unidirectiona l tire .

complexity of today's automobi les, have
steadi ly reduced the scope of maintenance
and repairs which can be carried out by vehicle
owners.
Also, s afe ty and en vironm ental con­
cerns p lace very strict limits on the nature of
repairs and adjustments to engine and trans ­
miss io n pa rts which an owner can perform .
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usua lly
require special tools, testing devices and oth­
er equipment avai lab le to specially trained
workshop personnel in order to assure prope r
performance, reliab ility and safety of the vehi­
cle and its many systems .
Improper ma intenance, adjustments and re ­
pa irs can impair the operation and reliability
of your vehicle and even vo id your vehicle war­
ranty. The refo re, p roof of servic ing in accord­
ance w ith the ma intenance sched ule may be a
condition for upholding a poss ible war ranty
claim made within the warranty period .
Above all, operational safety can be adversely
affected, c rea ting unnecessary risks for you

I f in doubt about any servicing, have it done
by your authori zed Audi dealer or any othe r

_& WARNING
- Ser ious personal injury may occur as a re­
sult of improperly performed mainte­
nance, ad justments or repa irs .
- Always be extremely careful when work­
ing on the vehicle . Always follow com­
monly accepted safety pract ices and gen­
era l common sense. Never r is k personal
inju ry.
- Do not attempt any of the maintenance,
checks or repairs descr ibed o n the fol­
lowing pages if you are not fully fam ilia r
with these or othe r procedures with re­
spect to the vehicle, or are uncertain how
to p roceed .
- Do not do any work without the proper
too ls and equipment. Have the necessary
wo rk done by your authorized A udi deal­
er or another proper ly equipped and
qualified workshop.
- The engine compartment of any motor
veh icle is a potentially hazardous area.
Never reach into th e area around or
touch the rad iator fan. It is temperature
contro lled and can switch on suddenly -
even when the engine is off. The radiato r
fan switches on automat ically when the
coo lant reaches a certain tempera ture
and will cont inue to run until the coo lant
temperature drops .
- Always sw itch o ff the ignition before any­
one gets under the vehicle.
- Always support your veh icle with safety
