Why Is Audi A3 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Audi A3’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Audi. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Audi’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2011 Audi A3, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Audi’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Audi A3

It’s wise to have your Audi A3 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2011 Audi A3: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your A3 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
