Level should be in area 0-
Depending on how you drive and the conditions
in which the car is used, oil consumption can be
up to 0.5 Ltr./1000 km. Oil consumption is Likely
to be higher for the first 5000 km. For this rea­
son the engine oil Level must be checked at regu­
lar intervals, preferably when filling the tank and
before a journey.

.. If
the oil Level is too Low, add more engine oil.
.. Replace the oil filler cap carefully and push the
dipstick all the way in.
_& WARNING
- Ensure that no oil comes into contact with
hot engine components when topping up:
this could cause a fire.
- Wash your skin thoroughly if it comes into
contact with engine oil.
CD CAUTION
- The oil Level must never be above area 0, as
this may result in damage to the catalytic
converter or to the engine. Contact a qua Li-
224 fied
workshop to extract the engine oil if
necessary
- No additives should be used with engine oil.
Any damage caused by the use of such addi­
tives would not be covered by the factory
warranty.
@ For the sake of the environment
- Never pour oil down drains or into the
ground.
- Always observe statutory requirements
when disposing of empty oil canisters.
Cooling system
Coolant
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory
with a mixture of conditioned water and coolant
additive. This coolant must not be changed.
The coolant Level is monitored via a warning Lamp
on the infotainment display ¢page 12. However,
we re com mend that it shou Ld be checked occa­
sionally.
If you do need to top up the coolant, use a mix­
ture of water and coolant additive. We recom­
mend mixing coolant additive with distilled wa­
ter .
Coolant additive
The coolant additive contains anti-freeze and cor­
rosion protection agent. Only use one of the fol­
lowing coolant additives. It is possible to mix
these additives.
Coolant additive Specification

ble: G12+
The amount of coolant additive which needs to
be mixed with the water depends on the temper­
atures to be expected in the winter season. If the
anti-freeze concentration is too Low, the coolant
can freeze and cause engine damage.

CD CAUTION
- Have your qualified workshop check the
cooling system before the winter season to
make sure that the anti-freeze concentra­
tion is adequate for the conditions to be ex­
pected. This applies particularly if you drive
into a colder climate zone.
- To prevent damage to the engine, do not
use a different type of anti-freeze additive if
the approved type of additive is not availa­
ble. In this case use only water and bring
the coolant concentration back up to the
correct level as soon as possible by putting
in the specified additive.
- Always top up with fresh, unused coolant.
- Radiator sealants must not be added to the
coolant.
Topping up coolant
Fig. 214 Engine compartment: Cap of coolant expansion
tank
Checking coolant level
.. Park
your vehicle on a level surface .
.. Switch off the ignition .
.. Read off the coolant level on the coolant expan­
sion tank ¢ page 222, Fig. 211. When the en­
gine is cold, the coolant level should be be­
tween the marks. When the engine is warm, it
may be slightly above the top mark. Checking
and topping up fluids
Topping up coolant
Impor tant: The coolant expansion tank must not
be empty ¢(D.
.. Wait for the engine to cool down.
.. Cover the cap on the expansion tank with a
cloth, and carefully unscrew the cap anti-clock­
wise ¢ .&_ .
.. Add coolant in the correct concentration
¢ page 224 up to the top mark.
.. You should make sure that the fluid level re-
mains stable. If necessary, add more coolant.
.. Screw the cap on again tightly.
Any loss of coolant normally indicates a leak in
the cooling system. Drive to a qualified workshop
without delay and have the cooling system
checked. If there are no leaks in the system, a
loss of coolant can only occur if the coolant boils
and is forced out of the system as a result of
overheating.
A WARNING
- The cooling system is under pressure. Do
not unscrew the cap on the expansion tank
when the engine is hot: you could be scal­
ded by escaping steam.
- The coolant and coolant additive can be a
health hazard. Store the coolant additive in
the original container in a safe place out of
reach of children -risk of poisoning.
- When working in the engine compartment
be aware that the radiator fan may start
running suddenly, even if the ignition is
switched off-risk of injury!
CD CAUTION
Do not add coolant if the expansion tank is
empty. Air could have got into the cooling sys­
tem -risk of engine damage! In this case, do
NOT drive on. Obtain professional assistance .

- Inspection or oil change reminder: After acer­
tain mileage, a service reminder will appear on
the infotainment display each time the ignition
is switched on/off¢ Fig. 218. The distance or
time remaining will be shown briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: When your vehi­
cle is due for an inspection, oil change or both,
the corresponding reminder Inspection due!,
Oil change due! or Oil change and inspection
due! will appear briefly after you switch the ig­
nition on/off.
Checking the service intervals
You can look up the distance and time remaining
until the next oil change and next service inspec­
tion. Select the following on the infotainment
system: I MENU I button > Car > left control button
> Se rvicing & checks > Service intervals. You can­
not check the service interval for the first 500 km
or so after resetting the display or when your ve­
hicle is new.
CD CAUTION
- Keeping to the correct service intervals is
most important for the service life and re­
sidual value of the vehicle (and especially
for the life of the engine). Services must al­
ways be carried out promptly, even if the
mileage is low.
- The time until the next oil change is not
counted down if the battery is disconnec­
ted. If your vehicle is out of service for an
extended period, please refer to the Service
Schedule for details of the next service
date.

.... Wheels
and tyres
Wheels General notes
... Inspect the tyres regularly for damage (cuts,
cracks or blisters, etc.). Remove any foreign
bodies embedded in the treads.
... If you have to drive over a kerb or similar obsta­
cle, drive very slowly and as near as possible at
a right angle to the kerb.
... Damaged rims or tyres must be replaced imme­
diately.
... Keep grease, oil and fuel off the tyres.
... Mark
the wheels before taking them off so that
they rotate in the same direction when refitted.
... When removed, the wheels should be stored
flat in a cool, dry and preferably dark place.
CD CAUTION
- Please note that summer and winter tyres
are optimised for the prevailing road condi­
tions at different times of year. We recom­
mend that you use winter tyres during the
winter months. At low temperatures, sum­
mer tyres lose their elasticity and grip, and
braking performance also suffers as a re­
sult. Cracks can form in the tread block on
summer tyres if they are used at very cold
temperatures, and this can cause perma­
nent damage to the tyres. An increase in
rolling noise and tyre imbalance may result
from this damage.
- Machined, polished or chrome-plated rims
must not be used in winter conditions. The
process used to manufacture these types of
wheel rim does not provide adequate sur­
face protection against corrosion, and the
rims can be permanently damaged by road
salt or similar.
New wheels or tyres
It is best to have all servicing of wheels and tyres
performed by a qualified workshop, since they
have the necessary special tools and replacement
parts and trained personnel. Wheels
and tyres
... New tyres do not yet give maximum grip. When
driving with new tyres, drive at moderate
speeds and be especially careful during the first
500 km.
... All four wheels must be fitted with tyres of the
same type, size (rolling circumference) and
preferably the same tread pattern.
... Tyres should be replaced in pairs and not indi­
vidually (i.e. both front tyres or both rear tyres
together).
... We recommend the use of Audi Genuine Tyres.
If you wish to use other tyres, please note that
the actual size can differ from the nominal size
marked on the tyre ¢.&_
.
... If you wish to purchase a different combination
of rims and tyres than the ones fitted on the ve­
hicle during production, it is advisable to con­
sult a qualified workshop beforehand ¢.&_
.
On vehicles with four-wheel drive, all four wheels
must always be fitted with tyres of the same
type, make and tread pattern, as otherwise the
driveline can be damaged by variations in the
wheel speeds. For the same reason, only use a
spare wheel* which has the same rolling circum­
ference as the normal road wheels.
If the spare wheel* is not the same type as the
tyres fitted on the car (for example if the car has
winter tyres or wide-section tyres) you should on­
ly use the spare wheel* if a puncture occurs, and
then only for a short period of time. In this case,
please drive with extra care. Refit a normal road
wheel as soon as possible.
Manufacturing date
The manufacturing date is indicated on the tyre
sidewall (possibly only on the inner side of the
wheel):
DOT ... 2214 ...
means, for example, that the tyre was produced
in the 22nd week of 2014.
Audi Genuine Tyres
Audi Genuine Tyres with the marking "AO" or
"RO" are specially matched to your Audi. When
used properly, these tyres meet the highest
standards in safety and handling. Your specialist
retailer will be glad to provide more information . ..,..
