Suspension Blocks, Installing: Notes
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 pressure is lost in the air suspension shock absorbers, the vehicle does not have sufficient ground clearance.
The vehicle must not be moved in this condition.
Use suspension blocks when, for example, the vehicle must be driven on an auto transporter or onto the hoist.
This increases the ground clearance.
WARNING:
- The vehicle must not be driven when suspensions blocks are installed.
- The vehicle can only be moved.
- When moving steering wheel from center position, do not turn more than a half left or right.
- After completing suspension block installation, inspect areas around front suspension strut mounts for possible body damage and repair if necessary.
- The upper rear control arms on the front axle must be replaced before the vehicle can be driven again.
Required Special Tools and Equipment
Suspension blocks for the front axle are different and are marked accordingly.
