Technical information should always be available to the foremen and mechanics, because their
careful and constant adherence to the instructions is essential to ensure vehicle road-worthiness and
safety. In addition, the normal basic safety precautions for working on motor vehicles must, as a
matter of course, be observed.

2Brake test
2.1General notes
The wheels are driven by the test rollers.
During the test the gearbox must be in neutral on manual gear‐
boxes or
in position N on automatic gearboxes.
Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the brake
test equipment when performing the test.
Note
Electronic brake control systems are inoperative when the ignition
is switched off.
2.2Vehicles with front-wheel drive
Audi TT 2007 ➤
Brake system - Edition 04.2009
Testing on a single-axle brake dynamometer
Perform brake test on a single-axle brake dynamometer.
The EDL control can activate the brakes if the rollers start at dif‐
ferent points in time.
Test speed must not exceed 6 km/h.
All brake test equipment approved by Audi meets these require‐
ments.
2.3Four-wheel drive vehicles with Haldex
coupling
Testing on a single-axle brake dynamometer for four-wheel drive
vehicles
The rollers drive the wheels of one axle in opposite directions to
avoid transmitting torque to the other axle.
The EDL control can activate the brakes if the rollers start at dif‐
ferent points in time.
Test speed must not exceed 6 km/h.
All brake test equipment approved by Audi meets these require‐
ments.
2.4Testing four-wheel drive vehicles with
Haldex coupling on a conventional
brake dynamometer
Proceed as follows to test brakes on a conventional brake dyna‐
mometer.
– Drive vehicle forward until front wheels are standing on rollers.
– Switch off engine and wait for 3 seconds.
– Perform brake test on front wheels.
– Allow engine to run for approx. 5 seconds after performing
brake test to build up sufficient vacuum in the servo.
– Drive vehicle forward until rear wheels are standing on rollers.

– Switch off engine and wait for 3 seconds.
– Perform brake test on rear wheels.
WARNING
The engine must not run and the ignition must be switched off
during the brake test, otherwise the rear wheels will be driven
by the Haldex coupling.

3Brake fluid
3.1General notes
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it has the tendency to absorb water
and moisture from the atmosphere
The boiling point decreases as the water content increases, which
means a considerable rise in brake fluid temperature can lead to
formation of vapour bubbles and reduced braking effect.
The colour of the brake fluid becomes darker over the course of
time. This is caused by a normal chemical reaction and is not an
indication of the condition of the fluid.
WARNING
Rubber parts of brake system (sleeves, seals) are not com‐
patible with mineral oil, fuel and cleaning agents. Even minute
quantities coming into contact with a sleeve or seal will affect
the component and could impair brake operation.

45 –Anti-lock brake system
1General information on the anti-lock
brake system
1.1Notes for repair work on ABS Mark 60
WARNING
The anti-lock brake system is basically maintenance-free.
Testing, removing, installing and repair work may only be per‐
formed by qualified personnel.
Failure to observe the information described in this Workshop
Manual may result in damage to the system and could make
the vehicle unsafe.
Note
Malfunctions in the ABS system do not influence the brake system
itself. However, a change in braking behaviour must be reckoned
with.
Vehicles equipped with the ABS Mark 60 do not have a mechan‐
ical brake pressure regulator. A specially matched software in the
control unit controls the rear axle brake pressure regulation.
♦ Before carrying out repair work on the anti-lock brake system,
determine the cause of the problem using self-diagnosis.
♦ Always switch off ignition before unplugging the connector at
hydraulic control unit.
♦ If a new hydraulic control unit has been fitted, it must be en‐
coded. Vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system VAS 505x-
♦ Bleed brake system after performing work involving opening
of brake system: ABS/ESP Mark 60 ⇒ page 109 . To do so,
use for example the brake filling and bleeding equipment V.A.G 1869- or brake filling and bleeding equipment -VAS
5234- .
♦ Absolute cleanliness is required when working on the anti-lock
brake system; avoid any products that contain mineral oil,
such as oil, grease, etc.
♦ Thoroughly clean all connections and the adjacent areas be‐
fore loosening; do not use harsh cleaning agents such as
brake cleaner, fuel, thinners or similar.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them up.
♦ Carefully cover or seal open components if repairs are not to
be carried out immediately. Use plugs from repair kit; Part No.
⇒ ETKA .
♦ When the brake system is open do not work with compressed
air and do not move the vehicle.
♦ Only use lint-free cloths.
♦ Only use genuine spare parts from original packaging.

with respect to the correctness of information in this document. Copyright by AUDI AG.
♦ Only remove replacement parts from packaging immediately
prior to installation.
♦ During the final road test, ensure that at least one ABS-con‐
trolled braking operation is performed (pulsations must be felt
at the brake pedal).
♦ During painting operations, the electronic control unit can be
exposed to a maximum temperature of 95 °C for only a short
period, and to a maximum of 85 °C for longer periods (approx.
2 hours).
♦ Before carrying out welding work with an electric welding unit,
refer to ⇒ General notes; Body repairs; Safety notes .
