Wheels, balancing on vehicle
 
      Always deactivate the traction control system 
(ASR) before balancing the wheels.  
     
Notes:  
     
Incorrectly balanced wheels cause steering 
wheel vibration and shuddering at the front of 
the vehicle. 
     Where applicable, position the vehicle on the 
sensor platforms (front axle only for front wheel 
drive, both axles for all wheel drive) in order to 
carry out wheel balancing. 
     Observe the wheel balancing equipment 
manufacturer's operating instructions.
