Wheel alignment<br />

General<br />

The vehicle alignment should be measured using VW<br />

approved wheel alignment equipment!<br />

We recommend that the front and rear axles are measured<br />

when performing alignment measurements.<br />

Otherwise correct vehicle performance is not guaranteed<br />

and an off center steering wheel may exist.<br />

Note:<br />

• Perform vehicle alignment only after 1000-2000 km<br />

(600-1200 miles) to allow suspension time to settled.<br />

• The individual specifications should be followed as<br />

exactly as possible when making adjustments.<br />

If the installation position of rear axle and the direction of<br />

travel of vehicle is not taken into account an off-center<br />

steering wheel may occur.<br />

Steering wheel and steering column are marked.<br />

These positions must not be changed!<br />

A - Marked line on steering wheel<br />

B - Punch mark on steering column<br />

Otherwise the center position of the steering rack cannot be<br />

guaranteed.<br />

Vehicles with Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP)<br />

If the steering wheel is off-center, the basic setting for<br />

the steering angle sensor must be checked. ⇒ Perform<br />

basic setting in "Guided Fault Finding" with the VAS<br />
