Dynamic Steering Basic Setting

Special tools and workshop equipment required

  • Vehicle Diagnostic Tester
  • Steering Wheel Scales -VAS6458-
  • Wheel Alignment Computer

There are two choices for performing a basic setting on the dynamic steering:

The "quick access"

This procedure should be selected for the following activities if:

  • the Active Steering Control Module -J792- was replaced,
  • the Steering Angle Sensor -G85- was calibrated,
  • the steering column was replaced,
  • the steering wheel is at an angle when driving straight.

The "complete alignment"

This procedure should be selected for the following activities if:

  • the suspension was adjusted during an axle alignment,
  • the front axle toe was adjusted,
  • the rear axle toe was adjusted,
  • the vehicle suspension was changed, for example, changing from standard to sport suspension.

  Note

  • Both procedures are programmed into the axle alignment computer.
  • The respective procedure is performed automatically.
  • It is only necessary to select the appropriate program for the procedure that will be performed.

Audi Q5. The "complete alignment"

  Note

  • Before beginning the basic setting, check the DTC memory and correct any malfunctions present.
  • Before starting the basic setting, the Steering Angle Sensor -G85- must be calibrated using the Steering Wheel Scales -VAS6458-.

- Connect the battery charger. Refer to → Electrical Equipment; Rep. Gr.27; Battery; Battery, Charging.

- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester to the vehicle.

- Select the calibration procedure for dynamic steering in the alignment computer.

- Install the quick clamps on all four wheels.

- Install the measurement sensors on the front and rear wheels.

- Perform wheel run-out compensation. Refer to → Chapter "Wheel Run-Out Compensation".

- Position the wheels so they are straight according to the alignment computer.
