Hi all,

I have a floor jack that I use to jack my A4. I put a hockey puck into the cup then jack the car up where the factory jack goes. Only problem is that the body cuts into the puck, then the undercoating splits.

My questions is, can I jack the car up using the flat area of the underbody, just behind the factory jacking point?

Thanks.

try a block of wood, if you put the grain 90 degrees to the ridge it shouldn't split. Other places that have worked for me are the front subframe at the point where it bolts to the body, and the bottom of the diff, as the diff carrier is huge.
