Determining thickness of shim "S2"

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Audi A4, 2007 Audi A4, 2006 Audi A4, and 2005 Audi A4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Formula: "S2 " = "S2 *" - measured backlash + specified backlash

Example:  
  Inserted shim "S2 *" 1.30 mm
- Measured average backlash 0.29 mm
+ Specified backlash (constant value) 0.20 mm
= Thickness of shim "S2 " 1.21 mm

Available shims for "S2 "

Shim thickness (mm) * See note
0.45 0.61 0.77
0.49 0.65 0.81
0.53 0.69 0.85
0.57 0.73  

*The exact shim thickness required can be obtained by using the shim tolerance variations. Install two shims if necessary.
