How to remove and refit a hood on Audi A3?

To take off the hood, open it and draw an outline of where each hinge is with a pencil or a felt tip pen so that it can be used as a guide when replacing the hood. The next step is to get help to assist in lifting the hood, loosen the locking clip and unconnect the gas support strut to the ball joint making sure to unconnect the strut retaining clip. Then unscrew the securing nuts, and lift the hood off, taking great care, and storing. Check the hinges by looking at wear and free play at the pivots, replacing them where needed. The hinge is fixed by the use of two bolts, so note where they are, unscrew the bolts, and take the hinges out of the car. To refit, with help, put on the hood and superficially screw in the retaining bolts, by matching the hinges with the marks made before, and finally fastening the nuts with a screw. Install the gas strut again but in reverse sequence and close the hood after which align it with the other panels. In case of misalignment, it is possible to unscrew the hinge nuts to adjust the hinge followed by tightening of hinge nuts so that the hood fixes and frees well.

How should the hood be removed and installed safely and correctly on Audi A4?

The hood is awkward to remove and install, so at least two people should perform this procedure. Begin by covering the cowl area of the body and the fenders with blankets or pads. Remove the wiper washer cover, disconnect the windshield washer hose and electrical connector, and take out the spray nozzle assembly. Next, slide the locking tab to the left to remove the harness cover from the hood hinge, then disconnect the electrical harness. Make alignment marks around the hinge plates using a permanent marker to ensure proper installation. Have an assistant support the hood while detaching the upper end of the hood support strut. Remove the hinge-to-hood bolts and lift off the hood, supporting it with your shoulder during this process. For installation, reverse the removal steps. To adjust the hood, loosen the nuts and move it in relation to the hinge plates for fore-and-aft and side-to-side alignment, tightening the hinge nuts afterward and carefully lowering the hood to check the alignment. Adjust the hood bumpers by turning them in or out to ensure the hood is flush with the fenders when closed. The safety latch assembly can also be adjusted up-and-down and side-to-side after loosening the nuts, and the buffer stops on each side of the radiator support can be adjusted by screwing them in or out.
