ways replace the brake linings on both sides (repair
measure).
Avoid soiling from brake fluid or grease flowing out.
Inspecting brake system for leaks and
damage
–Inspect master brake cylinder, brake servo unit (for
ABS: hydraulic unit), brake pressure regulator, brake
calipers for leaks and damage.
–Inspect brake hoses for twisting.
–Ensure that the brake hoses do not touch any parts of
the vehicle when the steering is turned to full left or full
right lock.
–Inspect the brake hoses for porous and brittle points.
Inspect the brake hoses and brake lines for chafing
points.
–Inspect the brake connections and attachments to en-
sure they are correctly fitted, free of leaks and corro-
sion.
Changing brake fluid (every 2 years)
Special tools, test and measuring equipment and
auxiliary items required
♦Extraction device
♦Brake pedal support, e.g. - V.A.G 1869/2-
Use only fresh genuine brake fluid FMVSS 571.116 DOT
4.
–Unscrew cap -1- from the brake fluid reservoir
Note
WARNING!
Any defects found must be rectified (repair meas-
ure).
WARNING!
Brake fluid must never come into contact with
fluids containing crude oils (oil, petrol, cleaning
agent). Crude oils damage the gaskets and
boots of the brake system.
Brake fluid is toxic. Because of its caustic effect
brake fluid must not come into contact with
paint.
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs mois-
ture from the surrounding air . Therefore it
should always be stored in airtight containers.
Wash any parts stained with brake fluid with
large volumes of water.
Observe the disposal instructions!

Test and setting conditions
•Tyre inflation pressure O.K.
•Lenses must neither be damaged nor soiled.
•Reflectors and bulbs O.K.
•Vehicle load must be achieved.
Load: With an individual or 75 kg on the driver's seat in an
otherwise unladen vehicle (dead weight).
The unladen weight is the weight of the vehicle with full
fuel tank (at least 90 %) including the weight of all the op-
erational equipment elements (e.g. spare wheel, tool kit,
jack etc.).
The vehicle must have rolled a few metres or have been
depressed a few times at the front and rear to allow the
springs to settle.
•Both the vehicel and headlight beam setting device
must be on a level flat surface.
•Align the vehicle and headlight beam setting device in
accordance with the device manufaturer's indications.
•Check the control system of vehicles equipped with
headlight beam control by repeatedly turning the
thumbwheel in the dash panel. Then turn the thum-
bwheel to basic position.
•Set the inclination value.
Inclination value:
The inclination value is marked in „%“ at the top of the
headlight housing. The main headlights must be set to
this value. The percentage value applies up to 10 metres
projection distance. This will be 12 cm for an inclination
value of e.g. 1.2 %.
Inspecting headlight beam setting and adjusting
if necessary
Main headlights:
–Check whether the horizontal light/dark limit touches
the separation mark -1- on the test surface when the
low beam light is on .
–Check whether the kink -2- between the left horizontal
part and the ascending right part of the light/dark limit
intersects with the central mark -3- on the vertical line.
The light core of the light beam must be located to the
right of the vertical line.132
