Council: All gas-filled shock-absorbers cannot be thrown out simply, they need to be brought in Audi workshop for "decontamination". |
|
|
At the correct installation the cowl has to adjoin to these shock-absorbers (shooter) densely. For adjustment of height the shock-absorber is screwed up or unscrewed. |
|

|
|
To replace a cowl cable, weaken bolts with six-sided heads (1 and 2). The cable (4) is on sale only together with the handle (3). |
Adjustment of a cowl
When the cowl is closed, the distance from it to both wings has to be identical (about 3 mm), and on a first line it has to be in one plane with wings. Besides, adjustment on height too has to be correct.
|
|
- For adjustment in the longitudinal direction bolts above between the hinge and a cowl are weakened.
- For lateral adjustment bolts between the hinge and a body are weakened.
- Shift a cowl cover in the necessary direction and tighten bolts.
- On a first line adjustment of height of a cowl is carried out as follows:
- Screw up persistent shock-absorbers on the right and at the left to the edge of metal.
- Weaken fixing bolts of the lock of a cowl and shift the lock as it is necessary, down or up.
- At this time check installation on height at the closed cowl: the upper edge of a cowl has to be ahead at one height with wings.
- Again tighten fixing bolts of the lock of a cowl.
- Pay attention to that the locking bracket entered a lock opening. If is not present, then the locking plate can be shifted sideways and in the longitudinal direction after weakening of three fixing bolts.
