    02 S6 - Looking for angles for alignment

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Trying to find a few angles for an alignment on an '02 S6 avant.
    Camber, caster, toe in/out.

    Audi of America advised going to audi for an alignment, they did not specify the angles though.

    It seems this is what I found...

    FRONT:
    Camber... (-)1.08
    Caster.... No Spec. Given
    Total Toe... 0.33

    REAR:
    Camber... Left side (-)1.0.... Right side (-)1.0
    Toe Total... 0.27
    Toe Total Raise... 0.23
    Thrust Angle... 0

    I believe I need a caster angle as well?
    Not sure what necessarily toe in or toe out is as it was given in Total Toe, and Total Toe Raise... I was not given a Total Toe Raise for the front, not sure if that is correct either...

    Follow what A6 calls for, that's close enough.

    Front: only Toe is adjustable. Camber, whatever it is, can only be centered between side via positioning of whole engine subframe.
    Rear: Looks about right but aim for as little camber as possible (adjustable). And make sure the thrust angle is as close to zero as possible.



    Here is a sample for Audi A6:

    Front Camber: -1.3 to -0.4
    Front Caster: no spec range
    Front Toe: 0.08 to 0.25

    Cross Camber: -0.5 to 0.5
    Total Toe: 0.17 to 0.50

    -------------------------
    Rear Camber: -1.2 to -0.2
    Rear Toe: 0.05 to 0.22

    Cross Camber -0.5 to 0.5
    Total Toe: 0.10 to 0.43

    That range is basically what I had before, but am trying to get Audi's initial factory position.
    I called Audi and a person who answered the phone (seemed unsure of these answers), but gave me these supposed positions and just hung up on me.

    I have factory specs so PM me your email addy and I can email this to you. You will need to look up your suspension code from spare wheel wheel label and look it up on V8 vehicles section.
