AWD Vehicles, Checking On A Controlled Opposite-Running Test Stand

Perform the brake inspection on a one-axle roller test stand approved by Volkswagen.

"Regulated" means: the speed of the test stand rollers must be regulated in such a way as to avoid any speed difference during the brake inspection. The transferring of force from the rolling wheels onto the stationery wheels outside of the test stand rollers via the drivetrain, is prevented.

"Opposite-running" means: the rollers on the one-axle roller test stand turn forward on the one side and backward on the other side. The wheels on one axle are driven in opposite directions, to prevent delivering power to the other axle outside of the test stand roller set.

During the brake inspection the forward turning wheel is measured so that two brake inspections per axle are required.

Do not exceed a test speed of 6 km/h (3.7 mph).
