Particle filter. See Owner's Manual
When the symbol

of at least 60 km/h (engine speed about 2,000 rpm) for about
15 minutes in 4th or 5th gear, or with the selector lever in position S
on vehicles with automatic gearbox*. As a result of the increase in

does not go out, please contact a qualified work-
shop and have the fault rectified.

WARNING
It is essential that you adjust your speed to suit the weather, road,
terrain and traffic co nditions. The recommended driving speed
must never lead to the driver disregarding the traffic regulations.

Engine oilGeneral notesWe recommend that you have the oil change carried out by an Audi
dealership / qualified workshop according to the intervals stated in
the Service Schedule or according to the service interval display in
the instrument cluster.
Whether your vehicle is serviced at flexible service intervals or fixed
service intervals is shown in the Service Schedule.
The correct oil specifications for your engine are listed in the Te c h -
nical data section ⇒page 323, “Performance, weights and dimen-
sions”.
Check that the specifications quoted (VW standards) appear on the
container either singly or in combination with other specifications.
Flexible service intervals (Audi LongLife Service*)
Special engine oils ⇒page 323, “Performance, weights and dimen-
sions” have been developed as part of the Audi LongLife Service
( ⇒ “Service Schedule”).
This type of oil must be used if you intend to take advantage of the
extended maintenance intervals allowed by the Audi LongLife
Service.•
Do not mix the LongLife oil with oil intended for fixed service
intervals, as the requirements for the extended service intervals are
then no longer guaranteed.
•
In exceptional circumstances, if the engine oil level is too low
⇒ page 258 and you cannot obtain the specified LongLife oil, you
can put in a small quantity of oil for fixed service intervals -
⇒ page 323, “Performance, weights and dimensions”. This should not be done more than once and no more than 0.5 litres should be
used.
Fixed service intervals (Inspection Service)*
If you do not take advantage of th
e LongLife service for your car, you
can use the oils for fixed service intervals - ⇒ page 323, “Perform-
ance, weights and dimensions”. In this case, your car must be serv-
iced after a fixed interval of 1 year / 15,000 km (9,000 miles) – see
Service Schedule.
•
In exceptional circumstances, if the engine oil level is too low
⇒ page 258 and you cannot obtain the oil specified for your vehicle,
you can put in a small quantity of oil conforming to the specification
ACEA A2 or ACEA A3 (petrol engines) or ACEA B3 or ACEA B4 (diesel
engines). This should not be done more than once and no more than
0.5 litres should be used.
Vehicles with diesel particulate filter*
The Service Schedule states whether your vehicle is fitted with a
diesel particulate filter.
•
Vehicles with diesel particulate filter must only be filled with
engine oil VW 507 00. This oil can be used regardless of whether the
vehicle is serviced at flexible service intervals (Audi LongLife
Service) or fixed service intervals.
•
Avoid mixing this oil with other engine oils.
•
In exceptional circumstances, if the engine oil level is too low
⇒ page 258 and you cannot obtain the oil specified for your vehicle,
you can put in a small quantity of oil conforming to the specification
VW 506 00 / VW 506 01 or VW 505 00 / VW 505 01 or ACEA B3 /
ACEA B4. This should not be done more than once and no more than
0.5 litres should be used.
