Fuel and R efu eli ng
Gasoline additives
Applies to veh icles: w ith gaso li ne engine
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 gaso line 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 additives 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 pe riod of using inadequate
fue ls, built-up carbon depos its can rob your en­
gine of peak performance.
(D Note
- Damage or ma lfunction due to poor fue l
quality is not covered by the Audi New Vehi­
cle Limited Warranty.
- Do not add aftermarket fuel additive prod­
ucts to yo ur fuel tank.
Diesel fuel
Applies to veh icles: w ith d iese l e ngine
Always use ULSD (Ultra Low Su lfur Diesel) No. 2 .
The ULSD No . 2 meets the ASTM D97S.
Diese l fuel with concentrations of biodiesel high­
er than S % such as 811,820 or 8100 are strictly prohibited.
Service station f uel pumps are labeled with the
correct fue l information for easy recognition by
the user.
If the diesel fuel pump is not labeled
ask the station operator what fuel is be ing dis­
pensed before filling up your vehicle .
ULSD No . 2 may not be availab le outside the USA
and Canada . Be sure to check before traveling to
other countries .
214
ULSD No. 2 can become thicke r in very cold tem ­
peratures, and this can impair the engine's start­
i ng and running. Depend ing on the season, gas
stations provide ULSD No. 2 that flows better in
cold temperatures so that you can continue oper­
at ing your vehicle as usual.
(D Note
- Your vehicle's diese l eng ine was designed
so ley for use w ith ULSD No. 2. Therefore,
never use gasoline, heating oil, other fuels
or flow improvers. These contain substances
that will severely damage the fuel system and the engine. Such damage will no t be
c ove red by your New Vehicle Limited War­
ranty .
-If you pu t any amo unt of inco rre ct fuel in
the fuel tank, do not start the engine u nder
any circumstances. Immed iate ly contact the
nearest authorized Audi dealer or author­
ized Audi Serv ice Facility for ass istance .
These fuels contain substances that can se­
verely damage the fuel system and the en­ gine if the engine is started .
