Default Lifting points

I have done a search on this topic but no results. Does anyone know where is the best spot to put the hydraulic lift jack to lift the car and where to put the jack stand? I saw a post somewhere on the web that shows photo but somehow lost the link. I need to know because the manual is vague indicating where these points are.

well on the sides behind the wheels there should be a pad to place a jack. Also you can jack up the car in the middle from the front. You'll see a spot to put the jack.

im not sure about the hydrolic lift, you better be carfull as the a4 is ultra fragile on the underside. if you use the one that came with your car it fits perfectly anywhare on the side of the car.

LOL every time I use the stock jack I laugh at the little one footer its so cute... but there are alot of places you can jack wit the hydralic jack just get under there and look for something beefy that will hold the weight of the car

This should be an easy question to answer but it never get a clear response.
The dealer uses a hoist to lift the A4. Where are the lifting pads located???
When we asked a local dealer they won't tell me. Total BS
There must be a lift point layout somewhere to look at.

Thanks not really answering the question. I guess you don't know either.
Maybe you watch this post and you get lucky when someone who really knows answers with a clear response.
