Emergency assistance
{QJ 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.
(D Tips
- When mounting tires with unidirectional
tread design
make sure the tread pattern is
pointed the right way
¢ page 278.
-The wheel bolts should be clean and easy to
turn. Check for dirt and corrosion on the mating surfaces of both the wheel and the
hub. Remove all dirt from these surfaces be­
fore remounting the wheel.
Unidirectional tires
A unidirectional tire profile is identified by arrows
that point in the running direction on the tire
sidewall. You must always adhere to the speci­
fied running direction. This is necessary ensure
the tire 's optimum performance in regard to ad­
hesion, running noise, friction and hydroplaning .
To benefit fully from the advantages of the uni­
directional tire design, you should replace faulty
tires as soon as possible and restore the correct
running direction on all of the tires.
Finishing
.,. Reinstall the caps on the wheel bolts if neces­
sary .
.,. Store the vehicle tool kit in its designated
place .
.,. If the removed wheel does not fit in the spare
wheel well, store it securely in the luggage
compartment
¢ page 183.
.,. Check the tire pressure on the installed wheel
as soon as possible.
.,. Check the tire pressure and store it in the Info­
tainment system.
.,. The wheel bol t tightening specification must be
90 ft lbs (120 Nm) . Check it as soon as possible
with a torque wrench. Drive carefully until then.
.,. Have the faulty wheel replaced as quickly as
possible.
278
(D Tips
- If you notice that the wheel bolts are cor­
roded and difficult to turn while changing a
tire, they should be replaced before you check the tightening torque.
- Drive at reduced speed until you have the
tightening torques checked.
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information ¢ page 251 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 or a
qualified service station.
- With steel and alloy wheel rims, the wheel
bolts are correctly tightened at a torque of
90
ft lbs (120 Nm).
- If you notice that the wheel bolts are corroded
and difficult to turn while changing a tire,
they should be replaced before you check the
tightening torque.
- Replace the flat tire with a new one and have
it installed on your vehicle as soon as possi­
ble. Remount the wheel cover .
Until then, drive with extra care and at reduced
speeds.
A WARNING
- If you are going to equip your vehicle with
tires or rims which differ from those which

carried out by vehicle owners.
Al so, sa fety a nd
en vir onment al
concerns place very strict limits
on the nature of repairs and adjustments to en­
g ine and transm ission parts wh ich an owner can
perform .
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually re­
qu ire special tools, test ing devices and other
equ ipment available to specially trained work­
shop personnel in order to assure proper per ­
formance, rel iability and safety of the veh icle and
its many systems .
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs
can impair the operation and reliability of your
veh icle and even void your vehicle warranty .
Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with
the ma intenance sc hedule may be a condition for
upho ld ing a possib le wa rranty claim made within
the warranty period.
Above all, operational safety can be adversely af­
fected, creating unnecessa ry risks fo r you and
your passenger.
If i n doubt about any servicing, have it done by
your author ized Audi dealer or any other properly
equ ipped and qua lified workshop. We strongly
urge yo u to g ive your author ized Audi dealer the
opportunity to perform a ll scheduled ma inte­
nance and necessary repairs. Your dealer has the
facilities, origina l parts and trained specialists to
keep your vehicle running properly .
