ESP AUDI A3 SEDAN 2018 Service Manual

Intelligent Technology
-There is no vehicle stabilization when ESC/
ASR are switched off.
(D Tips
- ESC/ ASR cannot be switched off or sport
mode cannot be switched on if the cruise
control system * or the adaptive cruise con­
tro l* is switched on.
- Malfunctions in the Audi magnetic ride*
may make it impossible to switch the ESC/
ASR off or to switch sport mode on.
Brakes
New brake pads
New brake pads do not achieve their full braking
effect during the first 250 mi (400 km). They
must be "broken in" first. However, you can com­
pensate for the slightly reduced braking force by
pressing firmly on the brake pedal. Avoid heavy
braking dur ing the break-in per iod .
The break-in period can be considerably longer
for vehicles with ceramic brake rotors*. However,
you can compensate for the slightly reduced
braking force by pressing f irmly on the brake
pedal. Avoid heavy brak ing dur ing the break- in
pe riod .
Wear
Brake pad
wear depends largely on the way the
veh icle is driven and on operat ing cond itions .
This is especially true if you are driving frequently
in the city and on curves or with a sporty driving
style.
Operating noise
Noises may occur when braking depend ing on the
speed, braking force and outs ide cond itions such
as temperature and humidity.
Noises may become more apparent at lower
speeds due to the nature of the materials in the
ceramic brake rotors*.
Effect of water and road salt
In certain situations, for example after driving
through water, in heavy rain, after overnight con­
densat ion or after washing your car, the braking
150
effect can be reduced by moisture or ice on the
brake rotors and brake pads . The brakes must be
"dried" first with a few carefu l brake applica ­
tions.
At higher speeds and with the windshield wipe rs
turned on, the brake pads press against the brake
rotors for a short amount of time . This action,
which is not felt by the dr iver, happens at regular
i ntervals and ensures a better reaction t ime for
the brakes in wet weather .
The brak ing effect can also be reduced if you are
driv ing on salted roads and you do not app ly the
brakes for long periods of time. The layer of salt
on the brake rotors and pads must be worn off
first whe n the brakes are applied .
Due to its surface, the ceram ic brake rotor* ab­
sorbs moisture in certain s ituations . Therefore,
there will temporarily be less braking force than
when the brakes are dry . You can compensate for
th is by press ing the brake pedal harder.
Corrosion
Leaving the vehicle parked for long periods of
time, low mileage and avoiding heavy braking
can contribute to corros ion on the brake rotors
and to dirty brake pads.
If you usually avoid heavy braking or if there is
corrosion present, occasional heavy brak ing at
high speeds is recommended to clean the brake
rotors and
pads~.& .
Brake system malfunction
If you notice that the brake pedal travel has sud­
denly
i ncreased, then a brake circuit in the dua l­
c ir cuit brake system may have malfunctioned.
Drive to an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Fac il ity immed iately to have the
problem corrected. On the way there, drive with
r educed speed and keep in mind that you will
need a longer distance to stop and you will need
to press the brake pedal harder.
Low brake fluid level
When the brake fluid level is low, malfunctions in
t h e b rake system may occur. The b rake flu id level
is electronically monitored.
