Default Jack points and jackstand points?

hi. how would one place the car on jackstands? That would mean I would ned to jack it up a one point, then place the jackstands at another. Where are those points? Any help is appreciated.

Check out a product called Jackpoint Jackstands. Kinda pricey but if a guy was to use them for a lot of years on a lot of different vehicles, then I think I could justify.

I talked with them and it sounded like he would knock off around $20ish for two or more people on a mini group buy.

I'm pretty sure I will pull the trigger on them soon.

It's a great idea. but pricey. $20 off isn't enough for me.

Place Jackstand on rear subfrome here (see metal tape marker);



Place front Jackstand where the subframe bolts are (see metal foil marker);

Ya. The price is almost insane.

Hi m444, thanks for the photos. Did you get these locations from Audi (i.e. are they "official" jack stand locations) ?
Also, could you take a zoomed out photo as well, to give better perspective on where they are?
