Tires and wheels -________________ fWII
• After any impact, immediately inspect your tires or have them
inspected by the nearest authorized Audi dealer. Replace a damaged
tire as soon as possible.
• Inspect your tires every 2,000 miles (3,000 km) for damage and
wear . Damage is not always easy to see . Damage can lead to loss of
air and underinflation, wh ich could eventually cause tire failure. If
you believe that a tire may have been damaged, replace the tire as
soon as possible.
• These tires may wear more quickly than others .
• Please also remember that, while these tires deliver responsive
handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than
other choices.
Reduced performance in winter/cold season
conditions
All tires are designed for certain purposes. The low aspect ratio, ultra high performance tires originally installed on your vehicle are
intended for maximum dry and wet road performance and handling.
Th ey are not su itable for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions. If you
drive under those circumstances, you should equip your vehicle with
all -season or winter tires, which offer better traction under those
conditions. We suggest you use the recommended snow or all-season
tires specified for your vehicle, or their equiva lent.
Refer to~
page 330 for more detailed i nformat ion regard ing w inter
tires. •
Tire pressure monitoring system
General notes I)
Each tire, including the spare (if prov ided), should be checked
month ly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recom­
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
inf lation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size ind icated o n the vehicle p lacard o r tire inflation pressure
Safety first
label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for
t hose tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a t ire
pressure monitoring system ( TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres ­
s ur e telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under­
inflated. According ly, when the low tire pressure te lltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sign ificantly under- inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Unde r­
inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper t ire ma inte­
nance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if unde r-inflation has not reached the level to trigge r
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been eq uipped with a TPMS mal function indi­
cator to indicate when the system is not operating properly . The
TPM S malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure
telltale . When the system detects a ma lfunct ion, the telltale will
flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated . T his sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indica tor is illum inated, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
ma lfunctions may occur fo r a variety of reasons, including the instal­
lat ion of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the veh icle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replac ing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the rep lacement or a lternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly .•

reliab ility. For deta iled vehicle maintenance cons ult your Warra nty &
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:
• oil changes, and
• cleaning or rep lacing the air fi lter.
<£> For the sake of the environment
By regular ly maintaining your vehicle, you help make sure that emis­
sion standards are mainta ined, t hus mi nimizing adve rse e ffects o n
the environment. •
Important considerations for you and your
vehicle
T he increasing use of electronics, sophisticated fuel injection and
em ission cont rol systems, and t he generally increasing techni cal
complex ity of today's automobiles, have stead ily reduced the scope
of mai ntenan ce and repairs w hich can be ca rried out by ve hicle
owners.
Also , safety and environm ental concerns p lace very strict
limits on the nature of repairs and adjustments to engine and trans­
mission parts wh ich an owner can perform.
Maintenance, adj ustments and repairs usua lly req uire specia l tools,
test ing devices and other eq uipment available to specially t rained
workshop personnel in order to assure proper performance, re li­
ability and safety of the vehicle and its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs can impair the oper­
ation and reliabili ty of your ve hicle and even void you r vehicle
warranty. Therefore, p roof of servicing in accordance with the main­
t enance schedu le may be a condit ion fo r uphold ing a possible
warranty cla im made w it h in the warranty period .
Safety first
Above all, operational safety can be adversely affected, creating
unnecessary r is ks for you and you r passe ngers.
If in doubt about a ny servic ing, have it done by your authorized Audi
dealer or any other properly eq uipped and qualified works hop. We
st rongly urge you to give you r a utho rized Aud i dealer the opportunity
to perform a ll scheduled maintenance and necessary repairs. Your
dealer has t he facilities, o rigina l part s and trained spe ciali sts to keep
your vehicle running properly.
Performing limit ed maint enance yourself
The following pages describe a lim ited number of procedures which

& WARNING (conti nu ed )
• The engine compartment of any motor veh icle is a potentially
hazardous area . Never reach into th e area around or touch the
radiator fa n. It is temperature controlled and can switch on
s uddenly -even when the engine is off and the ignition key has
been remo ved. The radiator fan switches on autom atically when
the coolant rea ches a certain temperature and will continue to run
until the coolant tempe rature drops.
• Always remove the ignition key before anyone gets under the
vehicle.
• Always support your vehicle with safety stands if it i s neces sary
to work unde rne ath the vehicle. The jac k supplied with the vehicle
is not adequate for thi s purpose and could collap se cau sing
serious personal injury.
• If you must work underneath the vehicle w ith the wheels on
the ground , always ma ke sure the vehicle is on level ground , th at
the whe els are alway s securely blocked and that the engine cannot
be started .
• Always make sure the transmi ssion selector l ever (automatic
tran smission) is in "P" (Park position ) and the par k brake is firmly
applied.
W For the sake of the environment
• Changing the engine settings will adversely affect e miss io n levels.
Th is is detrimenta l to the environment and increases fuel consump­
ti on.
• Always observe enviro nmental regulations when disposing of old
eng ine o il, use d brake fl uid, dirt y engine coo lant, s pent ba tt er ies or
worn out t ires.
• Undep loyed a irbag modules and pretens ioners migh t be classified
as Perchlorate Mater ia l -spec ial handling may apply, see
www.dts c.ca .g ov/h azar douswas te/pe rchlo ra te . When the veh icle or
parts of the rest raint system including a irbag modu les sa fety belts
w ith pretens ioners are sc rapped, all applicable laws and regulat io ns must be observed
. Your authorized Aud i dealer is familiar with these
re qui remen ts and we recomme nd that you have your dealer perfo rm
