Wheel Run-Out Compensation
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi A3 Quattro, 2017 Audi A3, 2016 Audi A3 Quattro, 2016 Audi A3, and 2015 Audi A3 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A correct toe-in adjustment will not be possible without performing lateral run-out compensation!
The lateral run-out of the wheel must be compensated for. Otherwise, measurement will result in false readings.
Permissible axial run-out of the wheel rims can exceed the specified toe setting tolerance. If compensation for wheel run-out is not performed, it will not be possible to obtain a correct toe-in adjustment.
Follow the operating instructions provided by the manufacturer of the alignment equipment.
