New brake pads
New brake pads do no t ac hieve t heir f ull b raking
effect during the firs t 25 0 mi (4 00 km). They
must be "b roken
in" fi rst . The b rea k-in per io d can
be considerably longe r for vehicles with ce ram ic
brake roto rs*. However, yo u can compensate for
the slightly reduced br aking fo rce by p ressing
firm ly on the brake pedal. Avo id heavy braking
d uring the brea k-in period .
Wear
Brake pad wear depends largely on the way the
ve hicle is driven and on operat ing cond itions.
This is especially true if you are driving frequently
i n the c ity and on curves o r with a sporty driving
style .
Operating noise
Noises may occur when bra king depend ing on the
speed, braking force and outs ide cond itions s uch
as temperature and humidity .
Noises may become more appare nt at lowe r
speeds d ue to the nature of the mater ia ls in the
ceramic brake rotors*.
Effect of water and road salt
I n ce rtain s it u at ions, for ex ample a fter dr iving
throu gh water, in heavy ra in, afte r overnig ht con Â
densat io n or after washing your car, the bra king
effect can be red uced by moisture or ice on the
brake rotors and b ra ke pads. The brakes must be
"dr ied" fi rst w it h a few careful brake applicaÂ
tions .
At highe r speeds and with the windsh ie ld w ipers
turned on, the brake pads press aga inst the brake
rotors for a sho rt amount of time. T his action,
which is not felt by the d rive r, happens a t regular
in te rvals a nd ens ures a bette r reac tion time fo r
the bra kes in wet weat her.
The braking ef fect can also be reduced if you are
d riving on salted roads and you do not apply t he
b rakes fo r long pe riods of time . The laye r of sa lt
on the br ake ro to rs and pads must be wo rn off
fi rs t when the br akes are app lied.
Intelligent Technology
Du e to its s urface, the ceram ic b rake rotor * ab Â
sorbs moistu re in ce rtain s ituations. The refore,
t h ere w ill tempora rily be less brak ing fo rce t han
whe n the brakes are d ry . Yo u can compensate for
t hi s by press ing t he b rake pedal harder.
Corrosion
L eaving t he vehi cle pa rked fo r lo ng p eriods o f
time, low mileage and avoidin g heavy b raking
can contrib ute to corros ion on the b rake roto rs
and to dirty brake pads.
If you usu a lly avoid heavy bra king or if the re is
cor rosion prese nt, occasiona l heavy bra king at
high speeds is recommended to clean the b ra ke
r oto rs and pads
c:> ,& .
Brake system malfunction
If
you notice that the br ake pe dal trave l has sud Â
denly in crease d, then a brake circuit in the dua lÂ
c ir cuit b rake system may have malfu nctioned .
Drive to an authorized A udi dealer or autho rized
Audi Se rvice Facility immed iate ly to have the
prob lem cor rected . On the way there, drive w ith
red uced speed and kee p in mind that you will
need a longer dis tance to stop an d you will need
to press the bra ke pe dal harder.
Low brake fluid level
When the bra ke fluid level is low, malfu nctions in
the b rake system may occur . T he b rake fl uid level
i s e lec tron ically moni to red .
Brake booster
The brake booster ampli fies t he p ress ure you ap Â
ply to the brake pedal. It on ly works w hen the enÂ
