2 76 Con sum er Inf ormation
comp lexity of today's automobi les, have
steadi ly reduced the scope of maintenance
and repairs which can be carried out by vehicle
owners.
Also, s afety an d e nvir onm ent al conÂ
cerns place very strict limits on the nature of repairs and adjustments to engine and trans Â
miss ion pa rts which an owner can perform .
Maintenance, adjustments and repa irs usua lly
require special tools, testing devices and othÂ
er equipment avai lab le to specially trained
workshop personnel in order to assure proper
performance, reliab ility and safety of the vehiÂ
cle and its many systems .
Improper ma intenance, adjustments and re Â
pa irs can impair the operation and reliab ility
of your vehicle and even void your vehicle war ranty. Therefo re , proof of servici ng in accordÂ
ance w it h the ma intenance sched ule may be a
condition for upholding a possible warranty
claim made within the warran ty period.
Above all, operational safety can be adve rsely
affected, c reating unnecessary risks for you
and your passengers.
If in doubt about any serv icing, have it done
by your author ized Audi dealer or any properly
equ ipped and qu alified workshop. We strongÂ
l y urge you to give your authorized Audi dea ler
the opportunity to perform all scheduled maintenance and necessary repairs . Your dealÂ
er has the facilities, or iginal parts and trained
specialists to keep your veh icle running propÂ
