Cleaning and caring for leather upholstery
and trim
Natural leather requires special care and attention.
Normal cleaning
-Clean so iled areas with a slightly moistened cotton or
woolen cloth .
More stubborn dirt
- More stubborn dirt can be removed using a cloth satu­
rated with a mild soap solution (2 tablespoons mild liquid
soap).
- Never allow the soap solution to saturate the leather, and
make certain that no water soaks into the seams.
-Wipe off the soap solution with a soft, dry cloth.
Cleaning spots
- Remove fresh water-based spots (such as coffee, tea,
juices, blood) with an absorbent cloth or paper towel.
- Remove fresh
grease or oil-based spots (such as butter,
mayonnaise, chocolate) with an absorbent cloth or paper
towel, or use the cleaner from the leather care kit if the
spot has not yet penetrated into the surface of the
leather.
- Use an oil/grease dissolving spray, if
oil/grease spots
have dried on .
-Remove specific kinds of spots (ballpoint pen, felt marker,
fingernail polish, water-based paint, shoe polish, etc .)
with a spot remover specifically formulated for leather.
Leather care
- Every half year use an approved leather care product
(available from your authorized Audi dealer) to care for
the leather.
- Apply the product very sparingly .
- Wipe it off with a damp cloth .
If you have any questions about cleaning and caring for the leather in
your vehicle, it is best to contact your author ized Audi dealer, who will
be glad to help you and tell you about our fu ll range of leather care
products, such as:
• Leather cleaning and care kit

Gasoline
Using the right fuel helps keep the environment clean and
prevents engine damage.
Fuel recommendation
The fuel recommended for you r vehicle is unleaded premium grade
gasoline . See also~
page 365, "Data". Audi recommends using TOP
TIE R Detergent Gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 91 AKI (95
RON) . For more information on TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline, please
go to the official website (www.toptiergas .com).
Th e recommended gasoline octane rating for your engine can also be
found on a labe l located on the inside of the fue l filler flap. This rating
may be specified as AK I o r RON.
Your vehicle may also be operated using unleaded regular gasoline
with a minim um octane rating of 87 AKl/91 RON . However, using 87
AKl/91 RON octane fuel will slightly reduce engine performance .
Use unleaded gasoline only. Unleaded gasoline is available
throughout the USA, Canada, and in most European countries. We
recommend that you do not take your vehicle to areas or countries
where unleaded gasoline may not be availab le.
For more information on refueling your vehicle, see~
page 293.
Octane rating
Octane rating indicates a gasoline's ability to resist engine damag ing
" kno ck" caused by prematu re ignition and detonation. Therefore,
buying the correct grade of gasoline is very important to help prevent
possible engine damage and a loss of engine performance.
Safety first
Gaso line most commonly used in the United States and Canada has
the following octane ratings that can usually be found on the filler
pump:
• Premium Grade: 91 - 96 AKI
• Regular Grade: 87 - 90 AKI
E xplanation of the abb reviations :
AKI= Anti Knock Index= (R +M)/2 = (RON+MON)/2
RON= Research Octane Number
MON= Moto r Octane Number.
0 Note
• Do not use any fuel with octane ratings lower than 87 AKI or 91
RON otherwise expens ive engine damage will occur.
• Do
not use leaded gasoline . T he use of leaded gasoline w ill
seve rely damage your veh icle's cata lytic converter and its ability to
control exhaust emiss io ns. •
Ap plies t o vehicl es: w ith gasoline eng in e
Blended gasoline
Use of gasoline containing alcohol or MTBE (methyl
tert iary butyl ether)
You may use unleaded gasoline blended w ith alcohol or MTBE
(common ly referred to as oxygenates) if the blended mixture meets
the following criteria:
Blend of gasoline methanol (wood alcohol or methyl alcohol)
• Anti-knock index must be 87 AKI o r higher.
• Blend must contain no more than 3% methanol.
• Blend must contain more than 2% co-solvents .

Changing the engine oil
The eng ine oil and oil fi lter mus t be changed according to the mileage
(kilome ters) and t ime intervals specified i n your vehicle 's Warranty &
Ma intenance booklet . Do not exceed these interva ls - harmful
deposi ts from o ld engi ne oil can reduce engine pe rfo rmance and ca n
lead to expensive engine repa irs.
C hangi ng the oil at the recommende d interva ls is so very imp ortant
because the lubricating properties of o il decrease gradually during
normal ve hicl e use. If yo u ar e not sure w hen you have yo ur oil
changed, ask your author ized Audi Service Adv isor .
Under some circumstances the eng ine o il should even be changed
more fr eq uent ly. Chang e oil mor e of ten if you d rive mostly short
distances, operate the veh icle in d usty areas or mostly under stop­
and -go t raff ic condi tion s, or when you use yo ur vehicle where tempe r­
atures stay be low free zing po int for long periods.

Engine oil consumption
To provide effective lubr ication a nd cooling for interna l eng ine parts,
a ll in ter na l c omb ustion e ngines use some oil. Oil cons umption v aries
from engine to engine and may change over the life of the eng ine .
E ngines te nd to use m ore oi l dur ing the b re a k-i n period t han t hey do
after ward, when oil consumption has stab ilized. Depending on t he
way the vehicle is driven and the operatin g cond itions, oi l cons ump ­
tion ca n be up to 1 qua rt pe r 1,200 m iles
(I liter per 2 ,000 km).
Consumption may be higher withi n th e first 3,0 00 miles (5,00 0 km).
Under nor mal co ndi tions, the rate o f oi l consu mptio n depe nds o n oil
quality as well as viscosity, engine speed ( rpm), o utside tempe rature,
roa d condi tion s, the amou nt of o il d ilution caused by co nde nsed
water or fu el residue, and oxidation of the oil. O il cons umption may
increase wi th en gine we ar ove r time, un til repl aceme nt of worn
eng ine pa rts may become necessa ry.
Because of all these var ia bles, there is no standa rd o r "norma l" rate
of oil consumption .
We urge you to check the engine oil level at
regular intervals, preferably every time you fill the fuel tank, and
always before a long trip .
The oil pressure warning light
~ is not an indicator of low eng ine
oil level. If the warning light does not go out after starting, or
flashes while driving (above 1500 rpm), a buzzer will sound . It
indicates that the oil pressure is too low. Stop the engine immedi- _.,,

_____________________________________________ C_h _ e_ c_ k_in --= g'-- a_n _d_ f_i _ll _i_n -=g ::;__ ____..
ately, check the engine oil level and add oil if necess ary. If the
engine oil level i s normal, but the light continues to flash , do not
keep driving or l et the engine idle , as damage may occur .
If you believe your engine uses too much oil, we recommend that you
cons ult your au thor ized Audi dealer so that the cause of yo ur conce rn
can be properly diagnosed. Keep in m ind that accurate measurement
of oil consump tion req uires gre at care a nd may ta ke some time. You r
Audi dealer has instructions for how to measure o il consumption
a ccu rately.
