2 76 Consumer Information
Technical Modifications
Our guidelines must be complied with when
technical modifications are made .
Always consult an authorized Audi dealer be­
fore starting work on any modifications.

malfunctions. Because of the way electronic
components are interconnected with each
other, such malfunctions can also have an ad­
verse affect on other systems that are not di­
rectly involved. This means that you risk both
a substantial reduction in the operational
safety of your vehicle and an increased wear of
ve hicle parts ¢
A:,..
Author ized Audi dealers will perform th is
wo rk in a professiona l and competent manner
or, in special cases, refer you to a professional
company that specializes in such modifica­
tions .
A WARNING
Improper repairs and modifications can
change the way vehicle systems work and
cause damage to the vehicle and serious
personal injury.

If emergency repairs must be performed
elsewhere, have the vehicle examined by
an authorized Audi dealer as soon as possi­
ble.
