WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2022 Audi S5, 2022 Audi A5 Quattro, 2021 Audi S5, 2021 Audi A5 Quattro, and 2020 Audi S5. 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 rims must be balanced. Otherwise, the measurements will be false.
- The permitted axial run-out of the 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 rack.
- The vehicle is equipped with an electronically-controlled automatic transmission. For this reason pay attention to the following for the wheel run-out compensation: if the engine is switched off in the selector lever position N , the transmission remains in N for approximately 30 minutes, then it automatically engages P . As soon as the driver door is opened, P is directly engaged. Refer to the operating instructions in the Owner's Manual.
