I assume the Audi's are not tapered then?
The other recommendation I swear by ... is to never, ever let those fncken air racket horrible crude things at your wheel nuts. Even though they are supposed to be set to a torque setting, they don't and I have seen steel wheels split because of those things. When I have no choice I always undo when I get home and retorque with a REAL tool.
