Gearshift recommendation
This indicator con help conserve fuel.
Fig. 8 Gearshift
recommendation
In order to become familiar with the gearshift indicator, begin
driving as usual. If the current gear is not the best one for
conserving fuel , the indicator will display the recommended gear.
Con tro ls and eq uip­
ment
Driver information system
The display shows the current gear and the recommended gear
~ fig. 8.
• Upshifting: The display is to the right of the current gear if a
higher gear is recommended.
• Downshifting: The display is to the left of the curren t gear if a
lower gear is recommended.
Sometimes the indicator will recommend skipping a gear
(3 lllll-5).
[ i J Tips
• This indicator should help you conserve fuel. It is not designed
to recommend the correct gear in all driving situations. Only the
driver can decide which gear is correct in certain driving situations
such as when accelerating or driving on hills.
• The display switches off when the clutch pedal is pressed.
• Gear shift recommendation can be deactivated in the driver
information system

irechnical data

Driver information system
The service interval display determines when a service procedure is
needed for your vehicle . It operates in two stages:
• Service reminder : Before reaching a service event, this message
appears briefly when you switch on the ignition:
OIL CHANGE IN
1230 Ml (2000 KM) 150 DAYS.
• Service event: When the date for service is reached, the message
OIL CHANGE! appears. It is accompanied by an audible signal.
Display remaining distance
By briefly pulling the knob,@) ~ page 12 , fig. 2, the dis tance/time
remaining to the next service date is displayed with the ignition on.
The distance/ time remaining is updated every 300 miles (500 kml.
If the distance/time remaining is cal led up on new vehicles or after
service has been performed, the due date is always shown in the
display with
OIL CHANGE IN····· Ml (KMl··· DAYS within the first 300
miles (500 km).
To reset the displa y
The dealership performing the service resets the display when the
service has been completed . The display is resets as follows:
• Switch the ignition on.
• Pull the knob @)~
page 12 , fig. 2, this message appears : OIL
CHANGE!
• Pull the knob unti l the display OIL CHANGE IN····· Ml (KM)···
DAYS
appears in the display. If the reset button is not pulled within
5 seconds, the disp lay reset mode closes.
[ i J Tips
• If a malfunction is present (red symbol), the distance remaining
cannot be called up.
• Do not reset the display between service intervals. Doing so will
result in an incorrect display.
• If the battery is disconnected, the Service Interval Display values
are reta ined. •
On vehicles with the Driver Information System, you can also call
up the service interval display~
page 27.
• If service was not performed at the correct time or the service
interval display was not reset after service was performed, the addi ­
tional mileage driven or the elapsed days will be shown as negative
numbers. •
On-Board Diagnostic system (OBD)
On-Board Diagnostics
Fig. 10 Locat ion of
Data Link Connector
( DLC )
On-Board Diagnostics monitors the components of your emission
control system . Each monitored component in your engine system
has been assigned a code. In case of a malfunction, the component
wi ll be identified and the fault stored as a code in the control
module memory.
The MIL light may also illuminate if there is a leak in the on -board
fuel vapor recovery system. If the light ill uminates after a refuelling,
stop the vehicle and make sure the fuel fi ller cap is properly closed
~ page 213.
In order to make an accurate diagnosis, the stored data can only be
displayed using special diagnostic equipment (generic scan tool for
OBD) . ...

Engine oil pressure malfunction 9=;r;
The red engine oil pressure warning symbol requires
immediate service or repair.
If the ~ symbol appears in the display and flashes, the oil
pressure is too low. In addition to the symbol, the following
message also appears in the display:
Switch off engine and check oil level
- Pull off the road and stop the vehicle .
- Shut the engine down.
- Check the engine oil level~
page 221.
-Contact your authorized Audi dealer for assistance if
necessary .
Engine oil level too low
If the engine oil level is too low, top off oil to the proper level
=>
page 222.
Engine oil level OK
If the ~ symbol starts flashing again ev en though the engine oil
level checks OK on the dipstick,
do not start driving again and do not
let the engine run at idle .
Instead, contact your authorized Audi
dealer for assistance .
[ i J Tips
• The engine oil pressure symbol ~ is not an indicator for a low
engine oil level. Do not rely on it. Instead, check the oil level in your
engine at regular intervals, preferably each time you refuel, and
always before going on a long trip.
• The yellow oil level warning indication _ requires oil refill or
workshop service without delay. Do not wait until the red oil pres­ sure warning symbol
~ starts to flash before you respond to the
Controls and equip ­
ment
Driver information system
low oil level warning = . By then, your engine may already have
suffered serious damage. •
Fuel supply too low Jl
When the L symbol illuminates, this means there are about 2.6
gallons
(10 liters) of fuel left in the fuel tank . Time to refuel!
=>
page 212.
If the symbol lights up , even when there is ample fuel in the tank,
and the text

appears in the display, there is a fault in the system. Contact a qual­
ified workshop to have the fault rectified. •
Checking the engine oil level .d'" ..
Please add max. 1 qt of engine oil!
If the symbol comes on, add 1 quart (1 liter) of oil at the next
opportunity=>

one half. Never drive faster than the posted speed limit and weather
conditi ons permit. •
Reducing unnecessary Idling
Even when your car is just idling it burns up fuel.
- Shut the eng ine off when you are not driving the vehicle .
- Do not warm up the vehicle by letting the eng ine run at
idle.
I t makes sense to shut off the engine in traffic jams, when waiting
for trains to pass at railroad crossings, or at traffic lights that have long waits on red. Turning the engine off for just 30 -40 seconds
saves more fue l than is burned s tarting the engine again .
It takes a long time for the engine to warm up fully when it is
running at idle . However, wear and noxious emissions a re especial ly
high when the engine is warming up . So you should drive away as
soon as you start the engine and avoid running at high RPMs whi le
the engine is stil l warming up .
0 Note
Do not leave engine idling unattended after starting . If warning
lights should come on to indicate improper operation, they would
go unheeded. Extended idl ing also produces heat, wh ich cou ld
result in overheating or other damage to the vehicle or other
property .•
Regular maintenance
A badly tuned en gine unnecessarily wastes a lot of fuel.
- Have your v ehicl e serv ice d at reg ular intervals.
Controls and equip­

Dri
ving and environm ent
By having your vehicle regularly serviced by an Audi dea ler helps to
ensure that i t runs properly and economically . The conditio n of your
vehic le not only affects its safety and abi lity to hold its va lue, it also
affects
fuel consumption .
Check your oil each time you fill your tank.
The amount of oil used is related to engine load and speed .
I t is normal for the oi l consumption of a new eng ine to reach its
lowest va lue after a certain mi leage has been driven.
You must drive your vehicle about 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometres) be fore you can proper ly assess o il consumpt ion.
This also applies to fuel consumption and engine output .
0 Note
• Have your vehicle maintained properly and in accordance with
t he service recommendations in you r Warranty
& Maintenance
booklet. Lack of proper ma intenance as well as improper use of the
vehicle wi ll impair the function of the emission control system and
cou ld lead to da mage.
• Do not alter or remove any component of the Emission Contro l
System unless approved by the manufacturer .
• Do no t al te r or remove any device, such as heat shields,
switches, ignition wires, valves, which are designed to protect your
veh ic le' s Emission Contr ol System and o ther i mportant vehicle
components. •

At the time of printing, engine oils available in the U.S. and Canada
that meet the exacting specifications of Audi oil standard VW 502 00
are synthetic engine oils. This does not mean, however, that every
synthetic engine oil will meet Audi oil standard VW 502 00. So
always be sure that you use an approved oil.
To help prevent the formation of harmful deposits use only oil with
the follow ing specifications printed on the oil container:
Audi oil standard VW 502 00
Oil container labels may carry the specification singly or in combi­
nation with other designations and oil quality standards.
Viscosity
Engine oils are graded according to their viscosity. The proper
viscosity grade oil for your engine depends on climactic or seasonal conditions where you drive . You can use oil with a viscosity grade of
SAE 5W40 across all temperature ranges for normal driving condi­
tions.
However, if engine oil viscosity grade SAE 5W40 is not available, you
can also use viscosity grade SAE 5W -30 or SAE 0W-40 as long as it
meets Audi oil quality standard VW 502 00 specifications.
Because engine oil that meets the Audi oil standard may not be
available everywhere when you need it, we strongly recommend
that you always carry with you an extra quart (liter) of oil that
e xpr ess ly conforms to the VW 502 00 specification, in case you have
to top off the oil while on the road.
Only if the level of the oil is at or below the minimum mark on the
oil dipstick -and no oil that expressly conforms to Audi oi l standard
VW 502 00 specifications is available -may you top off with a high
quality engine oi l, preferably synthetic-based, that meets ACEA A3,
ACEA A5 or ACEA B5, API SL or ILSAC GF-3 specifications, but even
then, only in viscosity grades SAE 5W -40, SAE 5W -30, or SAE 0W -40 .
However, during the entire time between oil change intervals, never
top off with more than a total of 0.5 qt/liter engine oil that does not
conform to Audi oi l specification VW 502 00. For
more information about engine oil that has been approved for
your vehicle, please contact either your authorized Audi dealer or
Audi Customer Relations at 1 (800) 822-2834 or visit our web site at
www .audiusa.com or www .audicanada.ca. Here you will also find a
current list of oils (manufacturers, brand names etc.) that conform
to Audi oil standard VW 502 00.
Changing the engine oil
The engine oil and oil filter must be changed according to the
mileage (kilometers) and time intervals specified in your vehicle's
Warranty
& Maintenance booklet. Do not exceed these intervals -
harmful deposits from old engine oil can reduce engine perfor­
mance and can lead to expensive engine repairs.
Changing the oil at the recommended intervals is so very important
because the lubricating properties of oi l decrease gradually during
normal vehicle use. If you are not sure when you have your oil
changed, ask your authorized Audi Service Advisor .
Under some circumstances the engine oil should even be changed
more frequently. Change oil more often if you drive mostly short
distances, operate the vehicle in dusty areas or mostly under stop­
and -go traffic conditions, or when you use your vehicle where
temperatures stay below freezing point for long periods.
Deterge nt additives in the oil will make fresh oil look dark after the
engine has been running for a short time . This is normal and is not
a reason to change the oil more often than recommended.
Damage or malfunctions due to lack of ma intenance
It is essential that you change your oil at the recommended interva ls
using only engine oil that complies with Audi oil standard
VW 502 00. Your Limited New Vehicle Warranty does not cover
damage or malfunctions due to failure to follow recommended
maintenance and use requirements as set forth in the Audi Owner's
Manual and Warranty
& Maintenance booklet. Your dea ler will have
to deny warranty coverage unless you present to the dealer proof in
the form of Service or Repair Orders that all schedu led maintenance
was performed in a timely manner. •

reliability. For detailed vehicle maintenance consult your Warranty &
Maintenance book let.
Und er di ffi cult ope rating cond ition s, for example at extremely low
outside temperatures, in very dusty regions, etc ., some service work
should be performed between the intervals specified. This app lies
particularly to:
• oil changes, and
• cleaning or replacing the air filter.
By regularly maintaining your vehicle, you help make sure that emis­
sion standards are maintained, thus minimizing adverse effects on
the environment. •
Important considerations for you and your
vehicle
The increasing use of electronics, sophisticated fuel injection and
emission control systems, and the general ly increasing technical
complexity of today's automobi les, have steadi ly reduced the scope
of maintenance and repa irs which can be carried out by vehicle
owners.
Al so, sa fety a nd e nvironment al concerns p lace very strict
limi ts on the na ture of repairs a nd adjustments to engine and trans ­
mission parts which an owner can perform.
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually require special tools,
testing dev ices and other equipment ava ilable to specially trained
workshop personnel in order to assure proper performance, reli ­
abil ity and safety of the vehicle and its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs can impair the
ope ration and re liability of your vehic le and even void your vehic le
warranty. Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with the main­
tenance schedu le may be a condition for upholding a pos sible
warranty claim made within the warranty period. Above all, operational safety can be adversely affected, creating
unnecessary r isks for you and your passengers .
If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by your authorized Audi
dea ler or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We
strongly urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the opportu­
nity to perform all scheduled maintenance and necessary repairs.
Your dealer has the fac ilities, origina l parts and trained spec ial ists
to keep your vehicle running proper ly.
P e rforming limited maint enance your self
The following pages describe a lim ited number of procedures which
can be performed on your vehicle wi th ordinary too ls, should the
need arise and trained personnel be unavai lab le. Before performing
any of these procedures, a lways thoroughly read all of the appli ­
cable text and carefu lly follow the instructions given. Always rigor ­
