•
• After any impact, immediately inspect your tires or have them
inspected by the nearest authorized Audi dealer. Replace a
damaged tire as soon as possible .
• Inspect your tires every 2,000 miles (3,000 km) for damage and
wear . Damage is not always easy to see. Damage can lead to loss of
air and underinflation, which could eventua lly cause tire fai lure . If
you believe that a tire may have been damaged, replace the tire as
soon as possible .
• These tires may wear more quickly than others.
• Please a lso remember that, whi le these tires deliver responsive
handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than
other choices.

co nditi ons
All tires are designed for certain purposes. The low aspect ratio,
ultra high performance tires originally installed on your vehicle are
intended for maximum dry and wet road performance and hand ling.
They are not suitable for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions . If
you drive under those circumstances, you should equip your vehicle
with al l- season or winter tires, which offer better traction under
those conditions . We suggest you use the recommended snow or
a ll- season tires specified for your vehicle, or their equivalent .
Refer to=>
page 254 for more detai led in formation regarding winter
tires. •
Run-flat tires
Applies to vehi cles : w ith R un-f lat tires
Introduction
Run-flat tires help keep you moving if a tire goes flat.
Reinforced s idewalls give the ti res run -flat capability if tire pressure
is lost . We recommend that run-flat tires only be mounted on vehicles that
we
re origina lly equipped with these special tires at the fac tory and
have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System .
Run-flat t ires can be ident ified by the letter s "RSC" on the tire side ­
wall.
If you do change the tires on your vehic le from normal to run -flat
tires, you must buy the special rims required for run-flat tires, and
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System must be reprogrammed by an
authorized Audi dea ler or other qualified workshop.
Wh at do run-fl at tir es do?
These special t ires have run-flat capabi lities that he lp keep you
moving if a tire loses pressure and goes flat. Under favorable condi ­
t ions tires can be driven
at least 30 miles (50 km ), but you must not
drive
f as ter t han 50 mph (80 km/h i=> page 258 , "Driving with run ­
flat t ires".
The Tire Pressure Moni toring System constantly checks the air pres­
sure in the tires. If the run -flat system is active (shown in the center
display), you must inspect the affected tire or tires and then decide
whether to continue driving . Be sure to follow these tips
=>
page 258, "Driving with run-flat tires" .
When it is not po ssibl e to continue driving , even with
run -fl at tire s?
• If the Electronic Stabilization Program (ES P) is not working or
keeps coming on.
• If the Tire Pressure Monitoring System does not work.
• If the tire has been severely damaged, in a crash , for example .
The tread can separate from a damaged tire as the wheel turns, and
hit parts of the vehicle , such as the fue l tank filler neck, fuel lines or
brake lines.
• Do not continue driving if severe vibration occurs or if the tire
starts to smoke because the tire is running hot.
• Do not continue driving if damage to the tire, such as cracks in
the s idewall, appears .

Weights
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), and the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for front and rear are listed on a sticker on the left
door jamb.
Controls and equip­ ment Safety first Vehicle operation
The
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating includes the weight of the basic
vehicle plus full fuel tank, oil and coolant, plus maximum load,
which includes passenger weight (150 lbs/68 kg per designated
seating position) and luggage weight.
Gross Axle Weight Rating
The Gross Axle Weight Rating is the maximum load that can be
applied at each axle of the vehicle~&.
Vehicle capacity weight
The vehicle capacity weight (max. load) is listed either on the
driver's side 8 -pillar or inside the fuel filler flap.
& WARNING
• The actual Gross Axle Weight Rating at the front and rear axles
should not exceed the permissible weights, and their combination
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
• Exceeding permissible weight ratings can result in vehicle
damage, accidents and personal injury.
0 Note
• The vehicle capacity weight figures apply when the load is
distributed evenly in the vehicle (passengers and luggage). When
transporting a heavy load in the luggage compartment, carry the
load as near to the rear axle as possible so that the vehicle's
handling is not impaired.
• Do not exceed the maximum permissible axle loads or the
maximum gross vehicle weight. Always remember that the vehicle's
handling will be affected by the extra load. Therefore, adjust your
speed accordingly.
• Always observe local regulations. •
