t ires and wheels" if yo u are going to use a spa re t ire wh ich is different
fr om the tires on yo ur vehi cle.
After you change a t ire:
• Check the tire pressure on the spare immediately after installa­
tion.
• Have the wheel bolt tightening torque checked with a torque
wren ch as soon as po ssible by yo u r autho rize d Audi deale r or a qual­
ified 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, dr ive with e xtra care and at reduced speeds.
