Hi,
New owner of a Q5 TDI looking for info on locations for jack stands and floor jack lift points.
Using Floor jack with a puck / jack pad- can a rear wheel be lifted under the coil spring at bottom of the aluminum housing holding the coil?

Pinch Weld jack location side of vehicle - Do not lift on bottom of the pinch weld??- use a jack pad with a slot that does not allow load to contact pinch weld sheet metal--- correct?

jack pad; https://www.ecstuning.com/b-schwaben-parts/schwaben-pinch-weld-protector/019164sch01a/

Front Aluminum Control arms- can jack stands be used under front control arms to support vehicle?

I have pictures referring to the above but I am not allowed to post attachments.

There are arrowheads imbedded in the bottom of the rocker panel that show where to place the jack for all 4 wheels.

Hi Rebel,
Yes, I am familiar with the jacking locations on the sides of the Q5. I was looking for alternate locations on the suspension for both jack stand and jacking points using a floor jack.
