Fuel and R efue li ng
Gasoline additives
A major concern among many auto manufactur­
ers is carbon deposit build-up ca used by the type
of gasoline you use .
Although gasoline grades d iffer from one manu­
facturer to another, they have certain things in
common. All gasoline grades contain substances
that can cause deposits to collect on v ita l engine
parts, such as fue l injectors and intake valves . Al­
though most gasoline brands include addit ives to
keep engine and fuel systems clean, they are not
equally effective.
Audi recommends using TOP TIER Detergent Gas­
oline. For more information on TOP TIER Deter­
gent Gasoline, please go to the official website (www.toptiergas.com).
After an extended period of using inadequate
fue ls, built-up carbon deposits can rob your en­
g ine of peak performance.
CD Note
- Damage or ma lfunction due to poor fuel
quality is not covered by the Audi New Vehi­
cle Limited War ranty.
- Do not add afterma rket fuel add it ive prod­
ucts to yo ur fuel tank.
Refueling
Fuel filler neck
The fuel filler neck is located on the r ight rear
side panel behind the fuel f iller flap .
If the power locking system should fail, you can
still open the flap manually -for detailed instruc­
tions see
c:> page 192 .
You can find the fuel tank capacity of your vehicle
in
c:>page 244 .
The label on the inside of the fuel filler flap tells
you the correct fue l for your vehicle. For more in­
formation about fuel specifications , see
c:>page 188 .
Your veh icle fuel tank has an on-board refuelling
vapor recovery system . This feature he lps to pre­
vent fuel vapors from escaping from the tank and
190
po lluting the environment whi le you refuel your
veh icle. In order to fill the tank proper ly while
protecting the env ironment, please follow th is
refueling procedure carefully.
A WARNING
Under normal operating conditions, never car­
ry additional fuel containers in your car. Gas
can isters and other containers used to trans­
port fue l can be dangerous. Such containers,
f ull or empty, may leak and could cause a fi re
in a co llision.
If you mus t transport fuel to
use for your lawn mower , snow blower, etc.,
be very careful and always observe local and
state laws regarding the use, transportation
and storage of such fuel containers. Make cer­
tain the container meets industry standards
(ANSI/ASTM F852 -86) .
CD Note
Never drive your vehicle until the fuel tank is
complete ly empty. The irregular supply of
fuel can cause misfiring. Gasoline could enter the exhaust system and damage the catalytic
converte r.
