e ngi ne oil from A udi Gen uin e P art s
Using the proper engine oil is important for the
functionality and service life of the engine. Your
engine was factory-filled with a high-quality oil
which can usually be used throughout the entire
year .
Note
Your Limited New Vehicle Warranty does not
cover damage or malfunctions due to failure
to follow recommended maintenance and use
requirements as set fo rth in the Aud i Owner's
Manual a nd Warranty & Mai ntenan ce booklet.
- Use only a high quality eng ine oil that ex-
pressly complies with the Aud i oil q ual ity
standard specified for your vehicle's engine. Using any other oil can cause serious engine
damage .
- Do not mix any l ubricants or othe r addi tives
into the engine oil. Doing so can cause en
gine damage.
(D Tips
If you need to add oil and there is none availa
ble that meets the Audi oil quality standard
your engine requires, you may add a total of
no more than 0 .5 quart/liter of a high-quality
"synthet ic"oil that meets the following speci
fications.
- ACEA A3 or API SM with a viscosity grade of
SAE OW-30, SAE SW-30 or SAE SW-40.
- For more information about engine oi l that
has been approved for your vehicle, please
contact e ither your authorized Audi dea ler
or Audi Customer Relat ions at

Ch eck ing and Filling
Engine oil consumption
The engine in your vehicle depends on on ade
quate amount of oil to lubricate and
cool oil of
its moving ports.
In order to provide effect ive lubrication and cool
ing of internal engine components, all internal
combust ion eng ines consume a certa in amount
of oil. Oil consumption varies from eng ine to en
gine and may change s ign ificantly over the life of
the engine. Typ ica lly, engines w ith a specified
break-in period (see
q page 58) consume more
oi l during the break -in period than they consume
after oil consumption has stabilized.
Under normal cond itions, the rate of oil con
sumption depends on the q uality and viscosity o f
the oil, the RPM (revol utions per minute) at
which the engine is operated, the ambient tem perature and road condit ions. Further factors are
the amount of oil dilution from water condensa
tion or fuel residue and the oxidation level of the o il. As any engine is subject to wear as mileage
builds up, the oil consumption may increase over
time unt il replacement of worn components may
become necessary.
With all these variables coming into play, no standard rate of o il consumption can be estab
li shed or spec ified . T he re is no alte rnative to reg
u la r and frequent checking of the oi l level , see
Note .
If the yellow engine o il leve l warning symbo l !I
in the instrument cluster lights up, you sho uld
check the o il level as soon as possible
q page 164. Top off the o il at your earlies t con
venience.
A WARNING ~
Before you check anything in the engine com-
partment, always read and heed all WARN
INGS
q .&. in Working in the engine comport
ment on page 159.
(D Note
Driving with an insufficient oil level is likely to
cause severe damage to the eng ine. ..,.

Checking and Filling
@ Tips
-The oil pressure warning display. is not
an indicator of the oil level. Do not rely on
i t. Instead , check the oil level in your en
gine at regular intervals, preferably each
time you refuel, and always before going
on a long trip.
- If you have the impression your engine con
sumes excessive amounts of oil, we recom
mend that you cons ult an autho rized Aud i
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. An authorized Audi dealer has instruc
tions about how to measure oil consump
tion accurately .

-Sc rew the engine oil filler cap "t!:;f; and slide the
dipstick all the way in.
A WARNING
- When adding engine oil, do not let oil drip
onto hot engine components. This increases
the risk of a fire.
- You must seal the cap on the oil filler open
ing correctly so that oil does not leak out
onto the hot engine and exhaust system
when the engine is running, because this is
a fire hazard.
-A lways clean sk in thoroughly if it comes into
contact with engine oil.
(D Note
-The engine oil level must not be under the
marking @, because this increases the risk
of engine damage .
- After adding engine oil, the oil leve l must
not be above the mark ing@ , because this

increases the risk of catalytic converter and/
or engine damage. Do not start the engine. Contact an authorized Audi dealer or au
thorized Audi Service Facility to have excess
engine oil extracted if necessary.
- Do not mix any additional lubricants into
the engine o il. Damage caused by such addi
tives is not covered by the warranty.
@ For the sake of the environment
-Engine o il should never enter the sewer sys
tem or come into contact with the ground under any circumstances.
- Pay attention to legal requirements when
dispos ing of empty oil containers.
@ Tips
The engine oil consumption may be up to
0.5 quart/600 m iles (0.5 liter/1,000 km), de
pending on driving style and operating condi
tions. Consumption may be higher during the
fi rst 3,000 miles (5,000 km). The engine o il
level must be checked regularly.
It would be
best to che ck each t ime you refue l yo ur vehi
cle and before long dr ives.
Changing the engine oil
We recommend that have your oil changed by an
authorized Audi dealer or a qualified service sta tion.
B efore you check a nyth ing in the eng ine compart
ment,

in Working in the engine compartment on
page 159.
The engine oil must be changed according to the
inte rvals spec ified in you r Warranty
& Mainte
nance booklet. This is very important because the
l ubri cat ing propert ies of o il diminish gradually
d uring normal vehicle use.
Unde r some ci rcumstances the eng ine o il should
be changed more frequently. Change oil mo re of
ten if yo u drive mos tly short distances, ope rate
the vehicle in dusty areas or under predominant ly
stop -and -go traffic condit ions, or have your vehi
cle where temperat ures remain below freezing
for extended periods.
Ch eck ing and Filling
Detergent add itives in the oi l will make fresh oil
l ook dark after the engine has been running for a
short time . This is normal and is not a reason to
change the oi l more often than recommended.

~ Add coolant mixed in the correct ratio
¢ page 166 up to the upper marking.
~ Make sure that the fluid level rema ins stable.
Add more coolant if necessary.
~ Close the cap securely.
Coolant loss usually indicates there is a leak. Im
mediately drive your vehicle to an authorized
Audi dealer or authori zed Audi Service Facility
and have the cooling system inspected. If the
cooling system is not leaking, a loss can come
from the coolant boiling through overheating
and be ing pushed out of the cooling system.
.&, WARNING
The cool ing system is pressu rized and can be
come very hot. To reduce the r is k of burns
from hot coolant :
- Do not open the coo lant expansion tank cap
when the engine is hot. This increases the risk of burns.
- Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
- Protect your face, hands and arms from es -
caping coolant and steam by covering the
coolant tank cap with a large, thick cloth .
- T urn the coo lant tank cap co unterclo ckwise
slowly and keep light pressu re on the cap .
- T o reduce the risk of burns , do not allow any
antifreeze o r coolant to drip onto the ex
haust system or hot engine components.
T he ethylene glycol in engine coolant can
catch fire under certain circumstances .
- T he coo lant add itive and the coolant can be
dangerous to your health . For this reason,
keep the coolant in the original container
and away from children. There is a risk of
poisoning.
- When working in the engine compartment,
remember that the radiator fan can switch
on even if the ignition is switched off, which
increases the risk of injury .
Do not add coolant if the expansion tank is
empty. Air could enter the cooling system and
damage the engine. If this is the case, do not
cont inue driv ing . See an authorized Audi deal -
Check ing and Filling
er or authorized Aud i Service Facility for assis
tance .
- Before the start of winter, have your author
ized Aud i dea ler or a uthorized Audi Serv ice
Facility check if the coolant additive in your
vehicle matches the percentage appropriate
for the climate. This is especially important
when driving in colder climates.
- If the appropr iate coo lant add itive is not
availab le in an emergency, do not add any
other additive . You could damage the en
gine. If this happens, only use water and re
store the correct m ixtu re ratio with the
specified coolant add it ive as soo n as poss i
ble .
- Only refill w ith new coolant.
- Radiator sealant must not be mixed with
the coolant .
Radiator fan
T he radiator fan switches on automatically by it
self.
An auxiliary e lectr ic radiator fan switches on and
off depend ing on coolant temperature and other
vehicle operating conditions.
After you switch the engine off, the auxiliary fan c a n continue running for up to 10 m inutes - even
with the ignition off . It can even switch on aga in
later by itself ¢.& , if
- the temperature of the engine coolant rises due
to the heat build-up from the engine in the en
gine compartment, or
- the engine compartment heats up bec ause the
veh icle is parked in in tense sunlight.
.&, WARNING
--
- To reduce the r isk of personal injury never
touch the radiator fan .
- The auxiliary e lectr ic fan is temperature
controlled and can switch on s uddenly even
when the engine is not runn ing .
- The auxiliary radiator fan sw itches on auto
mat ica lly when the eng ine coolant reaches a
certa in temperature and will continue to run
until the coolant temperature d rops .

Tires and vehicle load limits
There are limits to the amount of
load or weight that any vehicle
and any tire can carry. A vehicle
that is overloaded will not handle
well and is more difficult to stop.
Overloading can not only lead to
loss of vehicle control, but can al
so damage important parts of the
vehicle and can lead to sudden
tire failure, including a blowout

Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bulbs for
you .
It is becoming increasingly more and more diffi
cult to replace vehicle light bulbs since in many
cases, other parts of the car must first be re
moved before you are able to get to the bulb .
T his applies especially to the light bulbs in the
front of your car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment .
Sheet metal and bu lb holders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious cuts, pa rts must be
correctly taken apart and then properly put back
together to help prevent breakage o f parts and
long term damage from water that can enter
housings that have not been properly resealed.
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Aud i dea ler rep lace any bulbs fo r
you, since your dealer has the proper tools, the
correct bulbs and the expertise.
Gas di schar ge la mps (Xe no n ligh ts):
Due to the high electr ical voltage, have the bulbs
rep laced by a qualified technician. Headlights
with Xenon light are identified by the hig h volt
age st icker.
LED headlights* require no maintenance . Please
contact your authorized Audi dea ler if a bulb
needs to be replaced.
_&. WARNING
Changing Xenon lamps wi thout the necessary
equipment can cause serious personal injury .
- Bulbs are pressu rized and can explode when
be ing changed. Potent ial ris k of injury!
- On veh icles equipped with gas disc harge
bu lbs (Xenon light) life-threatening injuries
can resu lt from improper handling of the
high-vo ltage portions of such lamps!
- Only your authorized A udi dealer or quali
f ied workshop sho uld change the bulbs in
gas discharge lamps. There are parts with
sharp edges on the openings and on the

pen, for example, when heavy compo
nents such as the engine block or trans
miss io n are removed.
- When removing heavy components like
th ese, a nch or vehicle to ho ist o r add corre
sponding weights to maintain the cen ter of
gr avity. Otherwise , th e vehicle migh t ti lt or
s lip off the hoist, causing s erious p erso nal

0 Note
- Be aware of t he following poi nts before lift
i ng t he veh icle:
-The vehicle should never be lifted or
jacked up from underneath the engine oil
pan , the transmission housing, the front
or rear axle or the body side members.
This could lead to serious damage.
- To avoid damage to the underbody or
chassis frame, a rubber pad must be in·
serted between the floor jack and the lift points.
- Before driving over a workshop hoist,
check that the vehicle weight does not
exceed the permissible lifting capacity of
the hoist .
- Before driving over a workshop hoist, en
sure that there is sufficient clearance be
tween the hoist and low parts of the ve ·
