Road Test, Performing Before Balancing

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2018 Audi S6, 2018 Audi A6 Quattro, 2018 Audi A6, 2017 Audi S6, and 2017 Audi A6 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If a vehicle comes to the workshop with the complaint vibration, a road test must be performed before balancing the wheels.

That way, information about the type of vibration can be obtained.
Observe at which speed range the disturbance takes place.

-- Raise the vehicle on the platform immediately after the road test.

-- Mark the installation position on the tire.

NOTE:

Left Front tire with >>LF<< ; Right Front tire with >>RF<< ; Left Rear tire with >>LR<< ; Right Rear tire with >>RR<<.

-- Remove wheels from vehicle.

CAUTION:

If brake pads are ceramics, wheel must not fall on brake disc, otherwise it will be irreparably damaged. To remove/install wheel, install long assembly pin instead of wheel bolts in top position (12:00 position) and short assembly pin in wheel bolt mounts for support. In this way, the wheel can glide on the assembly aids when removing/installing.

-- Balance the wheels.
