New brake pa_ds
Remember that new brake pads do not have a full braking
effect during the first 250 miles (400 kilometers) after they
are installed.
New brake pads have to be "burnished in" before they have optimal
grab =>& .
During the break -in period, you should avoid putting severe loads
on the brakes . Severe loads include, for example, sudden hard
braking, in particular at very high speeds or, for example, on moun ­
tain passes .
& WARNING
Until they develop the maximum "bite" for best stopping power,
the surfaces on new brake pads require some "breaking-in" during
the initial 100 to 150 miles (150 to 200 kilometers) of normal city
driving. You can compensate for this by pressing the brake pedal
more firmly. This applies whenever new pads are installed. •
Driving through water on roads
Note the following to avoid vehicle damage when driving through
water, for example on flooded roads:
• The water must not be any higher than the bottom of the vehicle
body .
• Do not drive faster than walking speed .
& WARNING
After driving through water, mud, slush, etc., the brakes may be
slow to take effect because of wet brake rotors and pads. Dry the
brakes first by braking carefully to restore the full braking effect .
0 Note
Vehicle components such as the engine, transmission , suspension
or electrical system can be severely damaged by driving through
water .
[ i] Tips
• Check the depth of the water before driving through it .
• Do not stop th e vehicle, drive in reverse or switch the engine off
when driving through water.
• Keep in mind that oncoming vehicles may create waves that
raise the water level and make it too deep for your vehicle to drive
through safely.
• Avoid driving through salt water because it can cause
corrosion. •
Catalytic converter
It is very important that your emission control system
(catalytic converter) is functioning properly to ensure that
your vehicle is running in an environmentally sound
manner .
- Always use lead-free gasoline~ page 217, "Fuel supply".
- Never run the tank down all the way to empty.
- Never put too much motor oil in your engine ~ page
230,
"Adding engine oil 'l:::r.".
- Never try to push -or tow -start your vehicle.
Th e ca taly tic conv ert er is an ef ficient "clean-up " device built into the
exhaust system of the vehicle . The catalytic converter burns many
of the pollutants in the exhaust gas before they are released into the
atmosphere. •

Page 199 of 320

The exclusive use of unleaded fuel is critically important for the life
of the catalytic converter and proper functioning of the engine.
& WARNING
• Do not park or operate the vehicle in areas where the hot
exhaust system may come in contact with dry grass, brush, fuel
spill or other material which can cause a fire.
• Do not apply additional undercoating or rustproofing on or
near the exhaust manifold, exhaust pipes, catalytic converter or
heat shields . During driving, the substance used for undercoating
could overheat and cause a fire.
0 Note
• Be aware that just one tank filling with leaded fuel will already
seriously degrade the performance of the catalytic converter.
• Do not exceed the correct engine oil level~
page 230.
• Do not drive until the fuel tank becomes completely empty. The
engine could misfire. Unburned fuel could also get into the exhaust
system and this could cause the catalytic converter to overheat.
• Do not turn off the ignition while the vehicle is moving.
• Do not continue to operate your vehicle under these conditions,
as otherwise fuel can reach the catalytic converter. This could result
in overheating of the converter, requiring its replacement.
• To assure efficient operation of the Emission Control System :
- Have your vehicle maintained properly and in accordance with
the service recommendations in your Warranty
& Maintenance
booklet.
- Lack of proper maintenance as well as improper use of the
vehicle will impair the function of the emission control system
and could lead to damage.
Controls and equip­ ment Safety first Vehicle operation
Driving and environment
<£' For the sake of the environment
Even
when the Emission Control System is operating properly, the
exhaust gas can have a sulfur -like exhaust gas smell under some
operating states . This depends on the sulfur content of the fuel
being used . Using a different brand of fuel may help, or filling the
tank with lead-free super grade gasoline. •
Applies to veh ic les : with diesel particulate filter
Diesel particu ate filter
The diesel particulate filter filters nearly all of the soot particles out
of the exhaust. The filter cleans itself automatically under normal
driving conditions. If the filter cannot clean itself (for example,
because you are only driving short distances), the filter becomes
clogged with soot and the symbol for the diesel particulate filter
illuminates ~
page 32.
& WARNING
• Do not park your vehicle over flammable materials such as
grass or leaves because the high temperature of the diesel partic­
ulate filter could start a fire.
• Do not apply an underbody protectant in the exhaust system
area or a fire could start.
[ i] Tips
• When the diesel particulate filter becomes saturated, the engine
speed increases to approximately 1,500 rpm while the vehicle is in
motion to initiate the cleaning of the diesel particulate filter auto­
matically without the warning lamp lighting up. If the warning lamp
still appears, you should drive to a qualified workshop. •

Avoid damaging the vehicle
When you are driving on poor roads, or over curbs, steep ramps,
etc., make certain that low -lying parts such as spoilers and exhaust
system parts do not bottom out and get damaged.
This is especially true for vehicles with low -slung chassis (sports
chassis) and fu lly loaded vehicles.
Operate your vehicle economically
and minimize pollution
General
Your personal style of driving will determine the economy
o f your vehicle, as well as exhaust and noise levels.
Fuel economy, environmental impact, and wear on your engine,
brakes and tires largely depend on three factors:
• your personal driving style
• operating conditions
• technical limitat ions
If you anticipate what you need to do next and drive economically,
you can easily cu t your fue l consumption by 10 -15 percent . This
section will give you some tips on how you can help the environ­
ment and your pocketbook .
[ i ) Tips
The consumption estimates as published by ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECT ION AGENCY (EPA) and Transport Canada may not corre­
spond to your actua l consumption on the road, which wi ll vary
depending upon vehic le load and speed, road and weather condi ­
tions, trip length, etc.
Drive smo~thly and keep a lookout ahead
Vehicles use the m ost fuel when they are accelerating.
Avoid unnecessary accelerating and braking.
Vehicles use the most fue l when they are accelerating . If you antici­
pate what is going to happen next, you will need to brake less and,
thus, accelerate less. Let the vehicle coast whenever possible -for
example when you see that the next traffic light is red.
Avoid full throttle
Driving at moderate speeds saves fuel and improves your
mileage.
-Try and keep we ll below your car's maximum speed.
Acce lerating gently reduces fuel consumption, engine wear, and
does not disturb the environment .
Fuel consumption, exhaust em issions and engine noise increase
disproportionately at high speeds. If you drive at approximately
three quarters of top speed, fuel consumption wil l be reduced by
one half. Never drive faster than the posted speed limit and weather
conditions permit .•
Reducing unnecessary idling
E ven when your car is just idling i t burns up fuel.
- Sh ut the eng ine off when you are not driving the vehicle.
- Do not warm up th e vehicle by letting the eng ine r un at
idle.
I t m akes sense to shut off the engine in traffic jams, when waiting
for trains to pass at rai lroad crossings, or at traffic lights that have
9),

Page 201 of 320

long waits on red. Turning the engine off for just 30 -40 seconds
saves more f ue l than i s bu rned star ting the engine again.
It takes a long time for the engine to warm up fully when it is
running at idle. However , wear and noxious em issions are especial ly
h ig h w hen the eng ine is warming up. So y ou should dr ive away as
soon as you start the engine and avoid running at high RPMs whi le
the eng ine is still warming up.
0 Note
Do not leave en gine idling unattended after starting. If warn ing
lights should come on to indicate improper operation, they would
go unheeded . Extended idling also produces heat, wh ich cou ld
result in overheating or other damage to the vehicle or other
property .
Regular maintenance
A badly tuned engine unnecessarily wastes a lot of fuel.
- Have your vehicle serviced at regu lar intervals.
By having your vehicle regu lar ly serviced by an authorized Audi
dea ler he lps to ensure that it runs properly and econo mically . The
condition of your vehicle not only affects its safety and abi lity to
hold i ts va lue, it a lso affects fuel consumpt ion .
Che ck yo ur oil ea ch t ime you fill your t ank.
T he amount of oil used is related to engine load and speed.
It is nor mal for the oil consumption of a new engine to reach its
lowest va lue after a certain mi leage has been driven.
You must drive your vehicle about 3,000 mi les (5,000 kilometers)
before you can proper ly assess oil consumption .
T his also applies to fuel consumption and engine output.

0 Note
• Have your vehicle maintained properly and in accordance with
the service recommendations in your Warranty
& Maintenance
booklet. Lack of proper maintenance as we ll as improper use of the
vehic le wi ll impair the function of the emission control system and
cou ld lead to damage .
• Do not alter or remove any component of the Emission Control
System unless approved by the manufacturer .
• Do not alter or remove any device, such as heat shields,
sw itches, ignition wires, valves, which are designed to protect your
vehic le's Emission Control System and other important vehicle
components. •
Fewer short trips
Fuel consump tion will always be relatively hi gh on shor t
trips.
- Try to avo id driving short dista nces wi th a cold en gine.
The engine and cata lytic c onverter have to reach their optima l oper ­
ating temperature to reduce fuel consumption and noxious emis ­
sions effective ly .
• Just after starting, a cold engine in a mid-size car burns the fuel
at a poor rate of 6 -8 miles per gallon (30 -40 11100km). Half a mi le
down the road, the mileage improves to 12 MPG (20 1/100 km). It wi ll
take the engine no less than
two and a half miles (4 km) of driving to
warm up to its proper operat ing temperature and operate at a n
economic mileage . This exp lains why taking the car for short trips is
a ra ther waste ful convenience .
• The outs ide temperat ure is also critical in this regard. Your car
consumes more fuel in the winter than in the summer .•

Cleaning and protection -
----------------=-----=------

Safety belts
Only well-maintained safety belts work reliably when
needed.
-Keep belts clean.
- For cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution. Let
belts dry thoroughly and away from direct sunlight.
- Do not allow inertia reel safety belts to retract before
they are completely dry.
- Check the condition of your safety belts
regularly.
Heavily soiled safety belts may not retract properly.
& WARNING
Damaged safety belts can break in a crash .
• Anything that might damage your safety belts could mean that
you and your passengers would not be adequately protected in an
accident.
• Safety belt performance depends on correct installation. Never
remove belts from the vehicle to clean them .
• Do not use chemical cleaning agents, bleach or dyes. They have
corrosive properties which weaken the webbing.
• When cleaning your safety belts, inspect them for damage. If
you discover damage, see your authorized Audi dealer.
• Always read and heed all WARNINGS and other information
=:, page 204. •
Engine compartment
Be especially careful when cleaning the engine compart­
ment.
Always switch off the ignition before cleaning the engine =:> &.
Plenum panel
Remove leaves from the plenum panel in front of the windshield
under the engine hood. This prevents the water drain holes from
becoming blocked, and it prevents debris from entering the vehicle
interior through the heating and ventilation ducts .
Corrosion protection
The engine compartment and transmission have been corrosion­
protected at the factory.
Good anti-corrosion treatment is very important, particularly in the
winter. If the vehicle is frequently driven on salt treated roads, the
entire engine compartment and plenum panel should be thor ­
oughly cleaned at the end of winter and retreated to prevent salt
damage. At the same time, the underside of the vehicle should be
washed as well.
If the engine compartment is cleaned at any time with grease
removing solutions
3l, or if you have the engine washed , the anti­
corrosion treatment is almost always removed as well . It is therefore
essential to have a long-lasting corrosion protection reapplied to all
surfaces, seams, joints and components in the engine compart ­
ment.
& WARNING
Be aware: The engine compartment of any motor vehicle is a
potentially hazardous area.
• Before working in the engine compartment, be sure to read the
information

The engine oil used in your Audi needs the right kind of
oil.
The engine in your Audi is a sophisticated powerp lant that was built
to exacting specifications. This engine needs the right kind of
engine oil that meets specifications rega rding quality and viscosity
so that it can run smoothly and reliably. Choosing the right oil and
changing oil within the time and mileage intervals printed in your
vehic le's Warranty
& Maintenance booklet matters a lot more today
than it did years ago. Audi has developed a special quality standard
for engine oi l that will help assure that your vehicle's engine will get
the lubrication it needs for proper operation.
Modern engine lubrication has taken a quantum leap in the last few
years. Many synthetic oils available today provide better engine
lubrication that can outlast traditional petroleum -based oils,
making them a smart choice for use throughout the life of your Audi.
Whether you use synthetic or petroleum -based engine oil, the oil
that you use must conform to Audi's oi l quality standard VW 502 00
(vehicles with gasoline engine) and VW 507 00 (vehicle with diesel
engine) to help keep your vehicle's engine running smoo thly and _,..

help prevent the formation of harmful deposits, sometimes called
"s ludge," that over time can lead to expensive repairs.
At the time of printing, engine oi ls available in the U .S . and Canada
that meet the exacting specifications of Audi oil standard VW 502 00
(vehicles with gasoline engine) and VW 507 00 (vehicles with diesel
engine) are synthetic engine oils. This does not mean, however, that
every synthe tic engine oil wi ll meet Audi o il standard VW 502 00
(gasoline engines) and VW 507 00 (diesel engines). So always be
sure that you use an approved oil.
To help p reve nt th e for matio n of ha rmful d epo sit s use only oil wit h
the following sp ecific ati ons print ed on th e oil contain er:
• Gas oline engine s: Audi oil sta ndard VW 502 00
• Dies el en gin es: Aud i oil stand ard VW 507 00
O il container labels may carry the speci fication singly or in combi­
nation with other designations and oil qua lity standards.
Vi sc osity
Engine o ils are graded according to their viscosity. The proper
viscosity grade oil for your engine depends on climactic or seasona l
conditions where you drive . You can use o il with a v iscosity grade o f
SAE 5W-40 across all temperature ranges for normal driving condi­
tions.
However, if engine oil viscosity grade SAE 5W-40 is not avai lab le,
you can also use viscosity grade SAE 5W -30 or SAE 0W -40 as long as
it meets Audi oil quality standard VW 502 00 (vehicles with gaso line
engine) or VW 507 00 (vehicles with diesel engine) specifications.
Because engine oil that meets the Aud i o il standard may not be
avai lable everywhere when you need it, we strong ly recommend
that you a lways carry with you an extra quart (liter) of oil that
expressly conforms to the VW 502 00 (vehic les with gaso line engine)
or VW 507 00 (vehicles with diesel engine) specification, in case you
have to top off the oil while on the road.
Ap plie s to veh icles with g asoline eng ine onl y: Only if the level of the
oi l is at or below the min imum mark on the oil dipstick -and no oil that expressly conforms to Audi oi
l standard VW 502 00 specifica ­
tions is availab le -may you top off with a high quality e ngine oi l,
preferably synthetic-based, that meets ACEA A3, ACEA A5 or
ACEA 85 or AP I SL specifications, but even then, on ly in viscos ity
grades SAE 5W-40, SAE 5W -30, or SAE 0W-40. However, during the
entire time between oil change intervals, never top off with more
than a total of 0.5 qt/liter engine oil that does not con form to Audi
oi l specification VW 502 00 .
Applies to veh icle s with die sel eng ine only: Only if the level of the
oi l is at or below the minimum mark on the oi l dipstick -and no oil
that expressly confo rms to Aud i oi l standard VW 507 00 specifica ­
tions is available -may you top off with a high quality engine oil, that
meets ACEA C3 or API CF specifications, but even then, only in
v iscosity grades SAE 5W -40, SAE 5W -30 , or SAE 0W-40. However,
during the entire time between oi l change interva ls, never top off
with more than a total of 0.5 qt/liter engine oil that does not conform to Audi oil specification VW 507 00.
For more information abo ut engine oi l that has been app roved for
your vehicle, p lease contact either your authorized Audi dea ler or
Audi Custo mer Relations at 1 (800) 822 -2834 or visit our web site at
www.audiusa.com or www.audicanada.ca . Here you will a lso find a
current list of oils (manufacturers, brand names etc.) that conform
to Audi oi l standard VW 502 00 (vehicles with gaso line engine) or
VW 507 00 (vehicles with diese l engine) .
Changin g the engine oil
The engine oil and oil filter must be changed according to the
mi leage (ki lometers) and time in tervals specified in your vehic le's
Warranty
& Maintenance book let. Do not exceed these intervals -
harmful deposits from old engine oil can reduce engine perfor ­
mance and can lead to expensive engine repairs.
Changing the oil at the recommended intervals is so very important
because the lub ricating prope rties of oi l decrease gradua lly during
normal vehicle use . If you are not sure when you have your oil
changed, ask your authorized Audi Service Advisor . ..,.
Vehicle care I t •

-~_C_ h_e _c _ k_ i_n ...:::g::;...._ a_n_ d_ f_ i_ll _in -'g:::;.._ ___________________________________________ _
Under some circumstances the engine oil should even be changed
more frequently. Change oil more often if you drive mostly short
distances, operate the vehicle in dusty areas or mostly under stop ­
and -go traffic conditions, or when you use your vehicle where
temperatures stay below freezing point for long periods .
Detergent additives in the oil will make fresh oil look dark after the
engine has been running for a short time. This is normal and is not
a reason to change the oil more often than recommended .
Damage or malfunctions due to lack of maintenance
It is essential that you change your oi l at the recommended intervals
using only engine oil that complies with Audi oil standard
VW 502 00 (vehicles with gasoline engine) or VW 507 00 (vehicles
with diesel engine). Your Limited New Vehicle Warranty does not
cover damage or malfunctions due to failure to follow recom­
mended maintenance and use requirements as set forth in the Audi
Owner's Manual and Warranty
& Maintenance booklet. Your dealer
will have to deny warranty coverage unless you present to the dealer proof in the form of Service or Repair Orders that all scheduled
maintenance was performed in a timely manner .•
Engine oil consumption
The engine in your vehicle depends on an adequate
amount of oil to lubricate and cool all of its moving parts.
In order to provide effective lubrication and cooling of interna l
engine components, all internal combustion engines consume a
certain amount of oil. Oil consumption varies from engine to engine
and may change significant ly over the life of the engine. Typically,
engines with a specified break -in period (see=>
page 195) consume
more oil during the break-in period than they consume after oil
consumption has stabilized.
Under normal conditions, the rate of oil consumption depends on
the quality and viscosity of the oil, the RPM (revolutions per minute)
at which the engine is operated, the ambient temperature and road
conditions. Further factors are the amount of oil dilution from water condensation or fuel residue and the oxidation level of the oil. As
any
engine is subject to wear as mileage builds up, the oil consump­
tion may increase over time until replacement of worn components
may become necessary .
With all these variables coming into play, no standard rate of oi l
consumption can be established or specified. There is no alternative
to regular and frequent checking of the oil level, see
Note.
If the yellow engine oil level warning symbol in the instrument
cluster lights up, you should check the oil level as soon as
possible
with the oil dipstick=> page 229. Top off the oi l at your
earliest convenience =>
page 230.
& WARNING
Before you check anything in the engine compartment, always
read and heed all WARNINGS
=> &. in "Work ing in the engine
compartment" on
page 224.
0 Note
Driving with an insufficient oil level is likely to cause severe damage
to the engine.
[ i ] Tips
• The oil pressure warning display~ is not an indicator of the oil
level. Do not rely on it. Instead, check the oil level in your engine at
regular intervals , preferably each time you refuel, and always before
going on a long trip.
• If you have the impression your engine consumes excessive
amounts of oil, we recommend that you consu lt your authorized
Audi dealer to have the cause of your concern properly diagnosed .
Keep in mind that the accurate measurement of oil consumption
requires great care and may take some time. Your authorized Audi
dealer has instructions about how to measure oil consumption
accurately. •
