Using the proper engine o il is important for the
functionality and serv ice life of the engine. Your
engine was facto ry-filled with a high-qua lity oil
which can usually be used throughout the entire
year.
(D Note
Your Limited New Vehicle Warranty does not
cover damage or malfunctions due to failure
to follow recommended maintenance and use
requirements as set forth in the Audi Owner's Manual and Warranty
& Ma intenance booklet.
- Use only a high qua lity eng ine oil that ex-
pressly complies w ith the Audi o il quality
standard specified for your vehicle's engine.
Using any other oil can cause serious engine
damage.
- Do not mix any lubricants or other additives
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 o il quality standard
your eng ine requires, you may add a total of
no more than 0.5 quart/liter of a h igh-quality
"synthe tic"oil that meets the followi ng speci­
fications.
- Vehicles with gasoli ne engine: AC EA A3 o r
API SM wi th a viscosity g rade of SAE OW-30,
SA E SW-30 or SAE SW-40 .
- Vehicles wi th d iesel engine: AC EA C3 o r
API CF wi th a v iscosi ty grade of SA E OW-30
or SAE SW-30.

· Eng ine oil consumption
The engine in your vehicle depends on an ade­
quate amount of oil to lubricate and cool all of
its moving parts.
In order to prov ide effective lubrication and coo l­
i ng of internal engine components, all internal
combust ion engines consume a certa in amount
of oil. Oil consumpt ion va ries from engine to en­
gine and may change sig nificantly over the life of
the engine. Typically, eng ines wi th a specified
break -in period (see¢
page 198) consume mo re
o il during t he b reak-in period than they co nsume
after oil consumption has stabilized .
Un der normal cond itions, the rate o f oi l con­
sumption depends on the q uality and viscos ity o f
the oil, the RPM (revolutions per min ute) at
which the engine is operated, the ambient tem­ perature and road condit ions. Further factors are
the amount of o il dilution from water condensa­
tion or fuel residue and the ox idat ion leve l of the
o il. As any engine is subject to wear as mileage
builds up, the oil consumption may inc rease over
time unt il rep lacement of worn compone nts may
become necessary.
With a ll these variab les coming into p lay, no
standard rate of oil consumpt ion can be estab­
li shed or spec ified. There is no alte rnative to reg­
u lar and frequent checking of the oil leve l, see
Note .
If the yellow engine oil leve l warning symbo l in
the i nstrument cluster
II lights up, you should
c h ec k t he o il level as soon as poss ible
cf> page 2 25. Top off the oil at your ear liest con­
venience
r:!> page 225.
A WARNING
Before you check anything in the engine com­
partment, always read and heed a ll WARN­
INGS¢ .&.
in Working in the engine compart­
ment on page 221.
(D Note
Driving wit h an insufficient oi l level is likely to
cause severe damage to the engine.

Disconnecting the battery terminals
Some vehicle functions (power window regula­
tors , for example) are lost if the battery termi­
nals are disconnected. These functions have to be
re learned after th e battery terminals are con­
nected again. To prevent this, the batte ry should
only be disconnected from the ve hicle electrical
system when absolutely necessary for repairs.
Vehicles not driven for long periods
If you do not drive your vehicle over a period of
several days or weeks, e lectrica l components are
gradually cut back or switched off. This reduces
energy consumption and maintains starting ca­ pability over a longer period
c:> page 196.
Take into consideration that when you un lock
your veh icle, some convenience functions, such
as the interior lights or the power seat adjust­
ment, may not be available . The convenience
functions will be ava ilable again when you turn
on the ignition and start the engine.
Winter operation
During the winter months, battery capacity tends
to decrease as temperatures drop. This is because
more power is also consumed while starting, and
the headlights, rear window defogger, etc ., are
used more often.
Avoid unnecessary power consumption, part icu­
larly in city traffic or when traveling only short
d istances . Let your authorized Aud i dealer check
the capacity of the vehicle battery before w inter
sets in
c:> page 232. A well charged battery will
not only prevent s tarting problems when the
weather is cold, but will also last longer.
Working on the battery
Be especially careful when working on or near
the battery.
The battery is located in the luggage compart­
ment under the floor. Before you check anything
in the lug gage compartment,
read and heed all
WARNINGS
c:> ,&. .
Hybr id drive*: you can find important informat ion
about the high vo ltage battery u nder

Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace burned out 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 ab le to get to the bulb.
This applies espec ially to the light bulbs in the
front of you r car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment.
Fuses and bulbs
Sheet metal and bulb holders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious cuts, and parts
must be correctly taken apart and then properly
put back together to help prevent breakage of
parts and long term damage from water that can
enter housings that have not been proper ly re­
sealed .
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Aud i dealer replace any bulbs for
you, since your dealer has the proper too ls, the
correct bulbs and the expertise .
Gas discharge lamps (Xenon lights )*:
Due to the high e lectrica l voltage, have the bulbs
replaced by a qualified technician. Headlights
with Xenon light can be identif ied by the high
vo ltage sticker.
A WARNING
Contact with high-voltage components of the
electr ical system and improper replacement
of gas discharge (Xenon) headlight bulbs can
cause ser ious personal injury and death.
- Xenon bulbs are pressur ized and can ex-
plode when being changed.
- Changing Xenon lamps requ ires the special
train ing, instructions and equipment.
- Only an authorized Audi dealer or other
qualified workshop should change the bulbs
in gas discharge lamps.
A WARNING "'--
There are parts with sharp edges on the open-
in gs and on the bulb holders that can cause
serious cuts.
- If you are uncertain about what to do, have
the wor k performed by an authorized Aud i
dealer or other qualified workshop. Serious
personal injury may resu lt from improperly
performed work .
(D Tips
-If you must replace the light bulbs yourself,
always remember that the engine compart­
ment of any vehicle is a hazardous area to
work in . Always read and heed all WARN­
INGS¢ page 221 ¢ .&,.
