Wear Due To Faulty Adjustment
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi SQ5, 2017 Audi Q5, 2016 Audi SQ5, 2016 Audi Q5, and 2015 Audi SQ5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When a customer complains of diagonal wear spots, the toe adjustment must be checked. If it is OK, the cause for the diagonal wear spots is most likely in the tires. Billing to warranty is possible in this case.
The axle alignment log should be included with the tire complaint.
Tires with diagonal wear spots which developed due to faulty adjustment of the axle geometry are excluded from the warranty.
