1. Decide what size tire you want to install. You may or may not be able to use your existing wheels, depending on what the width of the new tire is going to be. If you want to install tires that are a lot wider than your existing ones, you may have to use wider wheels as well. An example would be replacing 205/60-16 tires with 255/45-16 tires. The new wider tire would probably not fit comfortably on the wheels. If you are installing tires that are only a little wider, you can use your existing wheels. An example would be replacing 205/60-16 tires with a 225/55-16 tires. Using new wheels will also allow you to go with a larger-diameter wheel and tire package.
2. Determine how wide your wheels are. Audis come with a wide range of wheel sizes, some wide and some not so wide. Look in your owner’s manual or the back of the wheel for the sizes. To look at the back of the wheel, loosen the lug nuts, raise the car and remove the wheel. Give the sizes to a tire professional to determine what tires will fit.
3. Ensure that the outer diameter of your new tire is the same as your old tire. This will be determined by the profile of the new tire, which is the distance from the outer edge of the wheel to the outer part of the tire. If the wheel and tire are shorter or taller, your speedometer will not read correctly.
4. Purchase your new tires and, if applicable, new wheels.
5. Have the tires installed on your existing wheels if you did not get a wheel and tire package. Do not attempt to install the tires yourself because it requires special equipment to perform properly. If you purchased a wheel and tire package, you can install them yourself. Loosen the lug nuts for the wheels, and lift the vehicle with a floor jack. Install the new wheels and tires one corner at a time.

1. Raise the hood and loosen the nut on your negative battery cable using a wrench. Set the cable aside, making sure it doesnt touch the positive terminal.

8. Position yourself on the outside of the vehicle and pull the handle from the door. For the back doors, you are done. On the front doors, unclip the rod from the handle and then turn the handle to release it

1. Flick the key out as if you were going to be opening the door. Locate the thin line that goes across the width of the key parallel with the buttons on the key and which is where the two halves of the key meet.
2. Wedge a thin screwdriver or similar tool carefully into this dividing line. Note that this is not the same thing as the holes or the grooves that are located inside the recess of the key fob.
3. Twist the screwdriver slightly to separate the key portion from the fob portion of the key fob assembly. Wedge the screwdriver into the top of the fob, the sides and the back and twist until the two sides separate. This may take some force, but be very careful not to break the plastic.
4. Open the small plastic ringed end of the lid that is located in the side of the key that does not have the button on it. The lid can be gently pried open with your nail or even the screwdriver, but be careful not to break the lid as you pull it out. Do not touch the computer chip under the lid.
5. Remove the old battery and install the correct new battery, available from the Audi dealer. Replace the lid and snap the two halves of the key back together.
