Wheels, Installing Correctly
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 23 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi S5, 2017 Audi A5 Quattro, 2016 Audi S5, 2016 Audi A5 Quattro, and 2015 Audi S5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
-- Be sure to follow the points so that the installed wheel fits securely:
- Before installing the wheel: Check for rust/corrosion product between the rim and the wheel hub as well as in the wheel bolt seats and on the contact surfaces, remove if necessary. Otherwise there will be a loss of pretension on the wheel bolts and this loosens the rim.
- When installing a wheel: Do not tighten the wheel bolts completely right away, for example, using an impact wrench. Otherwise it is no longer possible to center the rim correctly and it could come loose again.
- Always tighten wheel bolts to the tightening specification so the wheel bolt seats in rim are not deformed.
