-Determine the depth before driving through
water.
-Do not stop the vehicle, drive in reverse or
switch the engine off when driving through
water.
- Keep in mind that oncoming vehicles may
create waves that raise the water level and
make it too deep for your vehicle to drive
through safely.
- Avoid driving
through salt water (corrosion).
Economical and environmentally-friendly
driving
The amount of fuel consumption, the envi ron
mental impact and the wear to the engine,
b rakes and tires depends mostly on yo ur driving
style. Wit h
an anticipatory and economic driv ing
style, fu
el consumption can be reduced by ap
proximately 10-lSo/o. The following tips will help
you conserve the environment and your money at
the same time.
Anticip atory driv ing
A veh icle uses the most fuel when a ccele rating.
When you drive with anticipation, you do not
need to brake as often and thus acce lerate less.
When possible, let your vehicle coast with a gea r
engaged -for example, when you notice that the
next traffic light is red.
Avoid full acceleration
You should rarely travel at the maximum vehicle
speed. High speeds cause a disproportionately
high increase in fuel consumption, emissions and
traffic noise. Slower driving saves fuel.
Reduce idling time
It pays off to stop the engine, for example when
at railroad crossings or traffic lights with longer
red lights. Stopping the engine for 30-40 sec
onds already saves more fuel than the amount of
extra fuel needed to restart the engine.
It takes a very long time in idle to warm the en
gine up to operating temperature. Wear and
emissions are especially high in the warm-up
Driving
phase. Therefore, you should begin driving im
mediately after starting the engine. Avoid high
RPMs while doing this.
Service regularly
By servic ing you r vehicle regularly, you can help
to reduce fuel consumption before you even start
to drive . The maintenance condition of your vehi
cle not only affects traffic safety and long-term
val ue b ut also impacts fuel co nsumptio n.
A poorly serviced engine can lead to fuel con
sumption that is 10% higher than normal.
Also check the oil level when refueling. The oil
con sumpti on
depends largely on the engine load
and speed. It is no rmal for the oil consumption
of a new engine to reach its lowest point only af
ter a certain amount of use. Therefore, the oil
consumption can only be properly judged after
approximately 3,000 mi (5,000 km) have been
driven.
Avoi d short trip s
The engine and exhaust cleaning system must
reach their optimal operating tempera tu re to ef
fectively reduce consumption and emissions.
A cold engine consumes a disproportionately
high
amount of f u el. The engine is at operating
temperature and consumption has normalized
only after approximately four kilometers.
Q) Note
Do not leave engine idling unattended after
starting. If warning lights should come on to
indicate improper operation, they would go
unheeded. Extended idling also produces
heat, which could result in overheating or
other damage to the vehicle or other proper
ty.
CD Note
-Have your vehicle maintained properly and
in accordance with the service recommenda
tions in your Warranty & M ain tenance book-
let. Lac k of proper mai ntenance as well as
improper use of th e vehi cle w il l impair the
function of the emission control system and
cou ld lead to damage. .,..

-There is no vehicle stabilization when ESC/
ASR are switched off.
(D Tips
-When the cruise control system is switched
on, ESC/ ASR cannot be switched off or sport
mode cannot
be switched on.
- Malfunctions in the rear spoiler
or the Audi
magnetic ride may make
it impossible to
switch the ESC/ ASR off or to switch sport
mode on.
Brakes
New brake pads
New brake pads do not achieve their full braking
effect during the first 250 mi (400 km) . They
must be "broken in" first. However, you can com
pensate
for the slightly reduced braking force by
pressing
firmly on the brake pedal. Avoid heavy
braking during the break-in period.
Wear
Brake pad wear depends largely on the way the
vehicle is driven and on operating conditions.
This is especially true
if you are driving frequently
in
the city and on curves or with a sporty driving
style.
Operating noise
Noises may occur when braking depending on the
speed, braking force and outside conditions such
as temperature and humidity.
Effect of water and road salt
In certain situations, for example after driving
through water, in heavy
rain, after overnight con
densation
or after washing your car, the braking
effect can be reduced by moisture or ice on the
brake rotors and brake pads. The brakes
must be
"dried" first with a few careful brake applica
tions.
At higher speeds and with the windshield wipers
turned
on, the brake pads press against the brake
rotors
for a short amount of time. This action
which is
not felt by the driver happens at regular
Intelligent Technology
intervals and facilitates a better reaction time for
the brakes in wet weather.
T
he braking effect can also be reduced if you are
driving on salted roads and you do
not apply the
brakes for Long periods of time. The Layer of salt
on the brake rotors and pads must be worn off
first when the brakes are applied.
Corrosion
Leaving the vehicle parked for Long periods of
time, Low mileage and avoiding heavy braking
can contribute
to corrosion on the brake rotors
and
dirty brake pads.
If you usually avoid heavy braking or ifthere is
corrosion present, occasiona l heavy braking
at
high speeds is recommended to clean the brake
rotors and
pads¢.&..
Brake system malfunction
if you notice that the brake pedal travel has sud
denly gotten Larger, then a brake circuit may have
failed. Drive
to an authorized Audi dealer or au
thorized Audi Service Facility immediately to have
the problem corrected. On the way there, drive
with reduced speed and keep in mind that a Long
braking distance and increased pressure on the
brake pedal will be necessary.
Low brake fluid level
When the brake fluid Level is Low, malfunctions in
the brake system may occur. The brake fluid Level
is electronically monitored.
Brake booster
The brake booster amplifies the pressure you ap
ply to the brake pedal. It only works when the en
gine is running.
A WARNING
-New brake pads do not achieve their full
braking effect during the first 250 mi
(400 km). They must be "broken in" first.
However, you
can compensate for the
slightly reduced braking force by pressing
firmly on the brake pedal. Avoid heavy brak-
ing during
the break-in period. ~

-Only apply the brakes for the purpose of
cleaning the brake system when road and
traffic conditions permit. You must not en
danger other road users. This increases the
risk of an accident.
-
On steep slopes, reduce the speed and se
lect a lower gear or lower selector lever po
sition . Drive
as little as possible while press
ing the brake pedal and avoid putting your
left foot on the brake pedal while driving.
This could
cause the brakes to overheat and
impair the efficiency of the brakes.
-
Do not let the brakes "grind" by always
keeping
your foot on the brake pedal. This
can
cause the brakes to over heat, increase
wear and increase brak ing distance u nneces
sari ly.
-
Certa in weather and operating cond it io ns
such as driving through water, driving in
heavy rain or driving after washing your ve
hicle
can impair the effectiveness of the
brakes. In the winter, ice may build up on
the brake pads, rotors and drums. Check
these components by braking carefully. Ap
plying
the brakes carefully several times
dries the brakes and removes ice build-up.
- The efficiency
of the brakes can also be im
paired by driving
for long stretches on roads
covered with salt without using the brakes.
You can remove salt deposits from the
brake rotors and pads by carefully applying
the brakes several times.
-If the front spoiler is damaged or you install
another spoiler, make sure the front wheel
brakes are ventilated properly. Otherwise,
the brake system could overheat, wh ic h re
duces
thei r effectiveness.
- Failure
of a brake circuit impairs braking
performance, which increases braking dis
tance.
Avoid driving the vehicle and have it
towed it to the nearest authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
- Never
let the vehicle roll while the engine is
stopped because this increases the risk of an
accident.
-
If the brake booster is not working, you will
have
to press much harder on the brake
90
pedal to compensate for the lack of the
booster.
@ Note
-Never let the brakes "rub" by pressing the
pedal lightly when braking is not really nec
essary. This
causes the brakes to overheat
and increases braking distance and causes
wear.
- Before driving a long
distance on a steep
slope, decrease your speed and select a low
er driving gear. This makes use of the en
gine braking effect and relieves the brakes.
If you need to brake additionally, brake in
interva ls and not continuously.
(D Tips
-Ifthe brake booster is not work ing, you
must press the brake pedal w ith much more
force than normal.
-
If you retrofit your vehicle with a front spoil
er wheel covers or similar items, make sure '
that the air flow to the front wheels is not
interrupted. Otherwise the brake system
can become too hot.
Electromechanical

The electromechanical steering supports the
driver's steering movements.
Power steering adapts electronically based on
the vehicle speed.
Indicator lights and messages
• Steering: malfunction! Please stop vehicle
If this indicator light turns on and stays on and
this message appears, the power steering may
have failed.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location as soon as pos
sible.
Do not continue driving. See an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility for
assistance.

If the indicator light turns on, the steering wheel
may be more difficult to move or more sensitive
than usual. The steering wheel may also be at an
angle when driving straight.
Drive slow ly to an authorized Audi dealer or au
thorized Audi Service Facility to have the mal
function corrected.
@ Tips
If the. or '~ij indicator light only stays on
for a short time, you may continue driving.
ALL wheel drive (quattro)
In all wheel drive, all four wheels ore powered.
General information
In all wheel drive, the driving power is divided be
tween all four wheels. This happens automatical
ly depending on your driving behavior as well as
the current road conditions. c::> page 87, Electron
ic
stabilization control (ESC).
The all wheel drive concept is designed for high
engine power. Your vehicle is exceptionally pow
erful and has excellent driving characteristics
both under normal driving conditions and on
snow and ice. Always read and follow safety pre
cautions c::> &..
Winter tires
By using all wheel drive, your vehicle has good
forward motion with standard tires in winter con
ditions. However,
in winter we recommend using
winter or all season tires on all four wheels, be
cause this will improve the broking effect.
Snow chains
If there are snow chain laws, snow chains must
also be used on vehicles with all wheel drive
c::> page 265, Snow chains.
Replacing tires
For vehicles with all wheel drive, only wheels with
the same rolling circumference should be used.
Avoid
wheels with different tread depths
c::> page 257, New tires or wheels.
Intelligent Technology
Offroad vehicle?
Your Audi is not an offroad vehicle -there is not
enough ground clearance. For this reason, avoid
difficult
terrain.
&,,!!_ARNING
-I
-Also, in vehicles with all wheel drive, adapt
your driving style to the current road and
traffic conditions. Do not let the increased
safety provided tempt you into taking risks,
because this increases the risk of an acc i
dent.
- The braking ability
of your vehicle is limited
to the traction of the wheels. In this way, it
is not different from a two wheel drive vehi
cle.
Do not be tempted to accelerate to a
h
igh speed when the road is slippery this in
creases the risk of an accident.
- Note
that on wet streets, the front wheels
can "hydrop lane" if driving at speeds that
are too high. Unlike front wheel drive
veh icl
es, the engine does not rev higher sud
denly when the vehicle begins hydroplaning .
For
this reason, pay attention to the road
conditions
regard less of your speed.
Rear spoiler
The extendoble rear spoiler increases driving sta
bility.
Fig. 89 Center console: button for the rear spoiler
The rear spoiler retracts and extends. It can be
activated in various operating modes (manual
mode or automatic mode) .

Automatic mode (normal operation)
-Automatic extension: the rear spoiler will auto
matically extend when speeds exceed approxi
mately 75 mph (120 km/h)
-Automatic retraction: the rear spoiler will auto
matically retract when speeds decrease to un
der approximately 50 mph (80 km/h).
Manual mode
-Extending manually: briefly tap the~ fig. 89
button to fully extend the rear spoiler.
- Retracting manually:
when driving at speeds
below approximately 10 mph (20 km/h), press
and hold the button to retract the rear spoiler.
When at speeds between 10 mph (20 km/h)
and 75 mph (120 km/h), the rear spoiler will
completely retract when you tap the button.
Indicator lights
Ii) I. Rear spoiler: malfunction!
The
rear spoiler may not have extended due to a
malfunction.
This could change the veh icle's driv
ing characteristics
at high speeds. Do not drive
faster than 85 mph (140 km/h). Drive to an au
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service
Facility
immediately to have the malfunction cor
rected. The color
of the indicator light depends
on the vehicle speed.
..&. WARNING
-
Driving at higher speeds without the rear
spoiler deployed can impair handling charac
teristics, making
the vehicle harder to con
trol.
- Always
make sure that the spoiler is de
ployed when driving at
speeds ove r 85 mph
(140 km/h). If the rear spoiler warning/indi
cator light in the instrument cluster comes
on, the rear spoiler may not have deployed.
- Never drive
at speeds higher than 85 mph
(140 km/h) ifthe spoiler is not deployed.
Have
the spoiler inspected as soon as possi
ble by an
authorized Audi dealer or qualified
workshop.
- Always obey
speed limits and other traffic
laws.
92
..&. WARNING
Improper operation of the rear spoiler can
cause crushing injuries.
-Always make sure that nobody, especially
children, is
in the way when the rear spoiler
is deployed or retracted.
«J:) Note
-Never push on the vehicle on the rear spoil
er. This could
cause damage.
- To
prevent damage to the rear spoiler do
not lean or place anything on it.
-
-Only operate the rear spoiler manually when
the luggage compartment lid is close and
the rear spoiler moving parts are not
blocked. Otherwise, damage could occur.
(D Tips
Clean the rear spoiler compartment every 2 to
3 months. To function correctly, the rear
spoiler must be free of ice, snow and leaves.
Energy management

The energy management system manages the
electrical energy distribution
and optimizes the
availability
of electrical energy for starting the
engine.
When a vehicle with a conventiona l energy sys
tem is not driven for a long time, the battery is
drained by equipment (for example the immobil
izer). In
certain circumstances, there could may
not be enough energy to start the engine.
Your vehicle
is equipped with an intelligent ener
gy

.. Never try to push-or tow-start your vehicle.
The
catal ytic converter is an efficient "clean-up"
device built into the exhaust system of the vehi
cle. The catalytic
converter burns many of the
pollutants in the exhaust gas before they are re
leased into
the atmosphere .
Checking and Filling
The exclusive use of unleaded fuel is critically im
portant for the life of the catalytic converter and
proper functioning of the engine.
A WARNING
f= - I
The temperature of the exhaust system is
high, both when driving and after stopping
the engine.
- Never
touch the exhaust tail pipes once they
have become hot. This could result in burns.
-Do not park or operate the vehicle in a reas
where the hot exhaust system may come in
contact with dry grass, brush, fuel spill or
other material which can cause a fire .
-
Do not appl y additional undercoating or
r ustproofing on or near the exhaust mani
fold, exhau

Engine oil specifications
The engine oil used must conform to exact speci
fications.
The ser vice interva l disp lay in the instrument
cluster of your vehicle will inform you when it is
time for an oil change . We recommend that you
have your
oil changed by an authorized Audi Serv
ice Advisor.
If you have to top off the oil between oil changes,
use the Audi oil quality standard specified in the
table.
Audi oil quality standard
G
asoline VW S02 00 or
engin e vw S0400
Using the proper engine oil is important for the
functionality and service life of the engine. Your
engine was factory-filled
with a high-quality oil
which
can usually be used throughout the entire
year.
CD Note
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.
-
Use only a high quality engine oil that ex-
pressly complies
with the Audi oil quality
standard specified for your vehicle's engine.
Using any other oil can cause serious engine
damage.
-
Do not mix any lubricants or other additives
into the engine oil. Doing so can cause en
gine damage.
Tips
If you need to add oil and there is none availa
ble
that meets the Audi oil quality standard
your engi
ne requires, you may add a tota l of
no more than O.S qt/l of a high-quality "syn
thetic" oil that meets the following spec ifica
tions.
Checking and F illing
-ACEA A3 or API SM with a viscosity grade of
SAE OW-30, SAE SW-30 or SAE SW-40.

Engine oil consumption
The engine in your vehicle depends on an ade
quate
amount of oil to lubricate and cool all of
its moving parts.
In order to provide effective lubrication and cool
i ng
of internal engine components, all internal
combustion engines consume a certa in amount
of oil. Oil consumption varies from engine to en
gine and may change significantly over
the life of
the engine. Typically, engines with a specified
break-in period
(see~ page 56) consume more
oil during the break-in period than they consume
after oil consumption has stabilized.
Under normal cond it ions, the rate of oil con
s u
mption depends on th e qu ality and viscos ity of
the oil, the RPM (revolutions per minute) at
which the engine is operated, the ambient tem
perature and road conditions. Further factors are
the amount of oil dilution from water condensa
tion or fuel residue and the oxidation level of the
oil. As any engine is subject to wear as mileage
builds
up, the oil consumption may increase over
t ime
until replacement of worn components may
become necessary.
With all these variab les coming into play, no
standard rate
of oil consumption can be estab
lished
or specified. There is no alternative to reg
ular and frequent checking of the oil level, see
Note .
If the yellow engine oil level warning symbol II
in the instrument cluster lights up, you should
check
the oil level as soon as possible

.&. WARNING
Before you check anything in the engine com
partment, always read and heed all WARN
INGS¢ page 236.
CD Note
Driving with an insufficient oil level is likely to
cause severe damage to the engine.
{!) Tips
-The oil pressure warning display. is not
an indicator of the oil level. Do not rely on
it. Instead, check the oil level in your en
gine at regular intervals, preferably each
time you refuel , and always before going
on a long trip.
-If you have the impression your engi ne con
sumes excessive amounts of oil, we recom
mend that you consult an authorized Audi
dealer to have the cause of your concern
properly diagnosed. Keep
in mind that the
accurate measurement of oil consumption
requires great care and may take some
time. An authorized Audi dealer has instruc
tions about how to measure oil consump
tion accurately.
Checking the engine oil level
Fig. 185 Guide for determining levels on the oil dipstick
Determining the oil level
.. Park your vehicle on a level surface.
.. Let the engine run in idle briefly while it is at
operating temperature and then shut the en
gine off .
.. Wait approximately two minutes.

.. Remove the oil dipstick. Wipe off the oil dip
stick with a clean cloth and insert it all the way
in again.
.. Remove the dipstick again and then read the oil
level¢ fig. 185. Add engine oil if necessary

Do not add any oil.
The engine o
il consumption may be up to
0.5 quart per 600 m iles (0.5 liter/1,000 km), de
p ending on driving style and operating cond i
tions. Consumption may be higher during the
first 3,000 miles (S,000 km). Because of this, the
engine oil level must be checked regularly. It
would be best to check each time you refue l your
vehicle
