Instructions for Installing Wheel Spacers

Model: Audi A6 MK 3, C6 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Wheel

If you want to give your car a sportier and more aggressive look, installing wheel spacers to widen the track is certainly a good solution. Choose the appropriate spacers for your car by checking the number of holes, the bolt pattern, the diameter of the center hole (which should be as precise as possible to avoid wheel eccentricity), and the correct thickness (generally thicker in the rear and thinner in the front). Along with the spacers, you will also need to purchase longer studs. Lift the vehicle, remove the wheel, clean the hub area of the rim with grease, then insert the spacer before remounting the wheel.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
