Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Fitting wheel, fitting instructions for Audi
Vehicles with tyre pressure sensor |
If the wheels are changed (e.g. switch from summer to winter
tyres), the wheel electronics transmit data as soon as the speed
of the new wheels exceeds 25 km/h. The new wheel electronics' ID
numbers are automatically detected and entered by the control
unit. |
The acceleration data are additionally checked against the
vehicle speed. This process takes approx. 7 minutes. |
The tyre pressure monitoring system control unit -J502- must
first switch to learning mode before it can automatically learn
the wheel electronics. |
To do this, the vehicle must remain stationary for 20
minutes. Following the detection of a flat tyre, this time is 5
minutes. |
If the stationary time is not maintained and the control
unit consequently does not switch to learning mode, the system
detects interference in transmission and will learn the wheel
electronics automatically only after a stationary period of 20
minutes. |
Note
When changing wheels, note that only wheel and tyre
combinations approved by the vehicle manufacturer with the tyre
inflation pressure specified in the tank flap may be installed. |
If unapproved wheel and tyre combinations are installed, a
certificate from the responsible technical inspection authority
must be available for the respective vehicle, and a second wheel
set must be adapted via the → Vehicle
diagnostic tester. |
An adaptation is also necessary if the tyre pressure
deviates from the tyre pressure specified on the tank flap. |
Tyre sets with other specified tyre inflation pressures |
If a vehicle is fitted with tyres requiring nominal tyre
inflation pressures other than those specified on the tank flap
sticker, these tyres (second wheel set) can also be monitored
with the TPM system. |
Nominal tyre inflation pressures for the second wheel set
must be specified to the system with the → Vehicle
diagnostic tester. |
The wheel electronics for the wheels of the second wheel set
are not automatically detected and adapted by the TPM system
(unlike the wheel electronics for the wheel set with wheel and
tyre combinations approved by the vehicle manufacturer). |
The following work has to be performed to switch to the
second wheel set: |
Read ID numbers (IDs) of the wheel electronics (tyre
pressure sensors) prior to installation. |
Switch the TPM to wheel set 2. |
Enter the necessary nominal tyre pressures and the IDs of
the wheel electronics in the system. |
Continuation for all vehicles |
Note
The width across flats of the provided wheel bolt adapter
may differ from the width across flats of the adapter set. |
