Engine cooling system
Coolant
The e ngine co o la nt per form s two functio ns: it keeps the
engine from ove rh eati ng and it protects t he engine from
free zing in the winter .
The cooling system is sealed an d genera lly req uir es little attention. The cooling system has been f
illed at the factory wit h a permanent
c oo lant whi ch does no t need to be c hanged . Th e coolan t cons ists o f a
mixt ure of water and the manufacturer's glycol-basedcoolant addi ­
tive G12+ + antifreeze with anticorrosion ad dit ives (50% for USA
mode ls; 60% for Ca nadian models) . This mixture both ass ures the
necessary frost protection and protects meta l components in the
eng ine's cooling system from co rrosion and scaling. It also raise s the
boiling point of the coo lant .
Do not re du ce the co ncent ration of the coo lant in the summer by
add ing p la in water .
The proportion of coolant add itive must be at
least 50% but not more than 60%
to mai ntain an tifreeze pro tection
and coo ling efficiency . If the coolant frost p rotect io n i s too low, the
coo lant co uld freeze an d damage t he veh icle heating and engine
coo ling system .
For year-round driving, antifree ze is added at the factory for temper­
a tures dow n to:
• -31°F(-35°C)USA
• - 4 0 °F ( -40 °C) Canad a.
You can mix the G12 ++ coo lant addit ive w ith other additives (G12+ or
G 12). A lways check with yo ur autho rize d Audi dea ler.
& WARNING
Before you che ck anything in the engine compartment, always
read and heed all WARNINGS~
& in "Work ing in the engine
compartment" on
page 297 .
0 Note
• Before w inter sets in, have the coolan t checked to see i f the
coo lant add itive in yo ur vehicle is s uff ic ient to meet the cl ima te
conditions. This is especially important if yo u live in a region where
the winter is ext reme ly cold . If necessa ry, increase the proport ion of
coo lant add itive to 60%.
• When ad ding coolant add itive to you r cooling sys tem, remembe r:_.,

_____________________________________________ C_h _ e_ c_ k_in --= g:-. a_n _d_ f_i _ll _i_n -=g =-- ____.•
- We recommend using only coolant additive Gl2 ++ (check the
l a bel) for yo ur vehicle. This coolant ad dit ive is available at au tho·
r ized Audi dealers . Other types of antifreeze can s ignificantly
reduce corrosion protection. The resulting corrosion can cause a
loss of coolant and serious engine damage .
• Do not add any type of radiator leak sealant to your vehicle's
eng ine coo lant . Adding radiator repa ir fluid may adversely affect the
function and performance of your cooling system and could result in
damage not covered by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty .•
Checking the engine coolant Level
The engine coolant level can be checked with a quick
glance .

ex pansion tank
Before you c heck anything in the eng ine compartment,
always read and heed all WARNINGS~ & in "Working in
the e ngine compartment" on
page 297.
- Turn off the ignit ion .
- Let t he eng ine cool down .
- Place a thick rag over the coolant expans ion tank
~ fig . 235 and carefully twist the cap counter ·clockwise
~ & -
Vehicle OP-eration
-Read the engine coolant level in th e open coo lant expan ·
sion tank ~ fig . 235 . With a cold engine, the coolant level
should be between the "min" and "max" ma rkings . Whe n
the engine is warm , the level may be slight ly above the
"max" marking .
The location o f the coo lant expansion tank can be seen in the engine
compartment illustration=>
page 298 .
To obt ain an accurate reading , the engine must be sw itched off.
Th e expans ion t an k in your vehicle is equippe d with an electric coolant
level sensor.
When the coolant lev el is too low, the warning light in the Auto·Check
System=>
page 30 will blink until you add coolant and t he level has
been resto red to normal. Even though there is an electric coolant
level sensor, we st ill recommend you check the coolant leve l from
time to time.
Coolant loss
Coolant loss may indicate a leak in the coo ling system . In the event of
coo lant loss , the cooling system sho uld be inspected immed iate ly by
your authorized Aud i dea ler . It is not enough mere ly to add coolant.
In a
s ealed system, losses can occu r only if the boiling point of the
coolant is exceeded as a result of ove rheating .
& WARNING
The cooling system is under pressure and can get ve ry hot. Reduce
the ri sk of scalding from hot coolant by following the se steps.
• Turn off the engine and allow it to cool down .
• Protect your face, hand s and arms from e scaping fluid and
s team b y co ve ring the cap with a large, thi ck r ag.
• Turn the cap slowly and ver y carefully in a counter-clo ckwise
direction whil e applying light , downward pre ssure on the top of
thecap .

- Insert a rubber pad between the floor jack/workshop hoist
and the lifting points.
If you must lift your vehicle with a floor jack to work underneath,
be sure the vehicle is safely supported on stands intended for this
purpose.
Front lifting point
The lifting point is located on the floor pan reinforcement about at
t he same level as the jack mounting point::::;,
page 357, fig. 269. Do
not lift the vehicle at the vertical sill reinforcement.
Rear lifting point
The lifting point is located on the vertical reinforcement of the lower
sill fo r the onboa rd jack ::::;,
page 357, fig. 270 .
Lifting with vehicle jack
Refer to::::;, page 342.
& WARNING
• To reduce the risk of serious injury and vehicle damage.
-Always lift the vehicle only at the special workshop hoist and
floor jack lift points illustrated::::;,
page 357, fig. 269 and
::::;, page 357, fig. 270.
- Failure to lift the vehicle at these points could cause the
vehicle to tilt or fall from a lift if there is a change in vehicle weight distribution and balance. This might happen, for
example, when heavy components such as the engine block or
transmission are removed.
• When removing heavy components like these, anchor vehicle
to hoist or add corresponding weights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise, the vehicle might tilt or slip off the hoist,
causing serious personal injury.
0 Note
• Be aware of the following points before lifting the vehicle:
- The vehicle should never be lifted or jacked up from under­
neath 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 inserted 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, ensure that there is sufficient clearance between the hoist and low parts of the
vehicle. •

Main tenan ce bookle t.
Under difficult operating conditions, for example at extremely low
outside temperatures, in very dusty regions, when towing a trailer
very frequently, etc., some service wo rk shou ld be performed
between the intervals specified. This app lies particu larly to:
