Changing a wheel
When you change a wheel, follow the sequence described
below step-by-step and in exactly that order.
1. Activate the vehicle jack mode (only vehicles with Adap­
tive Air Suspension) ~
page 210.
2. Remove the decorative wheel cover*. For more details
see also~
page 375, "Decorative wheel covers" or
~ page 375, "Wheels with wheel bolt caps".
3. Loosen the wheel bolts ~ page 376.
4. Locate the proper mounting point for the jack and align
the jack below that point~
page 376.
5. Lift the car with the jack~ page 376.
6. Remove the wheel with the flat tire and then install the
inflatable spare tire =>
page 378.
7. Tighten all wheel bolts lightly.
8.
Lower the vehicle with the jack.
9. Use the wheel bolt wrench and
firmly tighten all wheel
bolts
~ page 376.
10. Replace the decorative wheel cover*.
11. Deactivate the vehicle jack mode (only vehicles with
Adaptive Air Suspension)=>
page 210.
& WARNING
Always read and follow all WARNINGS and information => & in
"Raising the vehicle" on
page 376 and => page 379. •
After changing a wheel
A wheel change is not complete without the doing the
following.
- Store and secure the wheel you replaced in the spare
wheel well.
- Replace the tools and the jack in their proper location.
- As soon as possible, have the
tightening torques on all
wheel bolts checked with a torque wrench. The correct
tightening torque is 120 ft lb (160 Nm).
- Have t he flat tire
replaced as soon as possible.
[ i] Tips
• I f you notice that the wheel bolts are corroded and difficult to
turn while changing a tire, they should be replaced before you check
the tightening torque .
• Drive at reduced speed until you have the tightening torques
checked .•

After you have loosened all wheel bolts and raised the
vehicle off the ground, remove and replace the w heel as
follows :
Removing the wh eel
- Remove the topmost wheel bolt complete ly and set it
aside on a clean surface.
- Screw the t hreaded end of the alignment pin from the
tool kit hand-tight into the empty bo lt hole ~ page 378,
fig. 306.
T hen remove the other wheel bolts as descr ibed above.
- Take off the wheel leaving t he alignment pin in the bolt
hole .
Putting on the inflatable spare tire
-Inflate the inflatable spare tire~ page 378 and push the
wheel over the alignment pin . - Sc
rew in and tighte n all wheel bolts slightly.
- Remove the a lignment pin and insert and tighten the
remaining wheel bolt slig htly like the rest.
- Tu rn the jack handle counter -c lockwise to lower the
veh icle until the jack is fully released.
Use the wheel bolt w rench to tighten a ll wheel bolts
firmly ~ page 376. Tighten them crosswise, from one
bolt to the (approximately) opposite one, to keep the
wheel centered .
[ i ] Tip s
• When mounting tires with un idi rect io n al t rea d de sign make sure
the tread pattern is pointed the right way =>
page 379.
• The whee l bolts should be clean and easy to turn. Check for dirt
and corrosion on the mating surfaces of both the wheel and the
hub . Remove a ll dirt from these surfaces before remounting the
wheel. •
Inflating inflatab le spare tire
- Remove the compressor from the luggage compartment
~ page 372, fig. 300.
- Unscrew the va lve stem f rom t he spare tire.
- Screw the ti re fi lier hose f rom the compress or firmly o nto
the valve of t he spare tire.
- Insert the plug from the comp ressor into a socket of the
veh icle ~ page 118.
- Sw itch the compressor on .

_______________________________________________ W_ h_ a_t _ d_ o_ l _d _o_ n_ o _ w_ ? __ IIIII
•
- Let the compressor run until it has reached 50 PSI (3.5
bar). Switch the compressor off after running for 8
minutes at the most -danger of overheating!
& WARNING
The compressor and the tire filler hose can become extremely hot
while they are running -danger of burns!
0 Note
Switch the compressor off after running for 8 minutes at the most -
danger of overheating! Allow the compressor to cool down for a few
minutes before you use it again.
[ i] Tips
The compressor must not be connected to the cigarette lighter
socket, as this socket does not provide the required power .•
Tires with unidirectional tread design
Tires with unidirectional tread design must be mounted
with their tread pattern pointed in the right direction.
Using a spare tire with a tread pattern intended for use
in a specific direction
When using a spare tire with a tread pattern intended for use in a
specific direction, please note the following:
• The direction of rotation is marked by an arrow on the side of the
tire.
• If the spare tire has to be installed in the incorrect direction, use
the spare tire only temporarily since the tire will not be able to
achieve its optimum performance characteristics with regard to
aquaplaning, noise and wear. •
We recommend that you pay particular attention to this fact
during wet weather and that you adjust your speed to match road
conditions.
• Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it installed on your
vehicle as soon as possible to restore the handling advantages of a
unidirectional tire. •
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information => page 359, "New tires and replacing
tires and wheels " if you are going to use a spare tire which is
different from the tires on your vehicle.
After you change a tire :
• Check the tire pressure on the spare immediately after installa­
tion.
• Have the wheel bolt tightening torque checked with a torque
wrench as soon as possible by your authorized Audi dealer or a
qualified workshop.
• With steel and alloy wheel rims, the wheel bolts are correctly
tightened at a torque of 120 ft lb (160 Nm).
• If you notice that the wheel bolts are corroded and difficult to
turn while changing a tire, they should be replaced before you check
the tightening torque.
• Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it installed on your
vehicle as soon as possible. Remount the wheel cover.
Until then, drive with extra care and at reduced speeds .
& WARNING
• If you are going to equip your vehicle with tires or rims which
differ from those which were factory installed, then be sure to read
the information
=> page 359, "New tires and replacing tires and
wheels". ..
