and is more difficult to stop. Overloading can not only lead to loss
of vehic le contro l, but can also damage important parts of the
vehic le and can lead to sudden tire failure, including a blowout and
sudden deflation that can cause the vehicle to crash .
Your safety and that of your passengers also depends on making sure that load limits are not exceeded . Vehicle load includes every ­
body and everything in and on the veh icle . These load lim its are
technically referred to as the vehicle's
G ross Vehicle Weight R ating
("GVWR").
The "GVWR" includes the weight of the basic vehic le, all factory
installed accessories, a ful l tank of fuel, oil, coolant and other fluids
p lus maximum load. The maximum load includes the number of
passengers that the vehicle is intended to carry ("seating capacity")
with an assumed we ight of 150 lbs (68 kg) for each passenger at a
designated seating position and the total weight of any luggage in
t he vehicle. If you tow a trai ler, the weight of the trailer hitch and the
tongue weight of the loaded trai ler must be included as part of the
vehic le load .
T he
G ros s Axle Weight Rating ("GAWR") is the maximum load that
can be applied at each of the vehicle's two axles .
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rat ing and the Gross Axle Weight Rating
are listed on the safety compliance sticker labe l located either on
the d river's side B -pillar o r on t he inside of the f ue l fi ller flap. Yo ur
Audi has 4 seating positions, 2 in the front and 2 in the rear for total
seating capaci ty of 4. Each seating posi tion has a safety belt
=>
page 159, "Safety be lts" .
T he fact that there is an upper limit to your vehicle's Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating means that the total weight of whatever is being carried in the vehicle (including the weight of a trailer hitch and the
tongue weigh t of the loaded trailer) is lim ite d. The more passengers
in the vehicle or passengers who are heavier than the standard
weights assumed mean that less weight can be carried as luggage.
The tire pressure labe l on your Audi also lists the maximum
combined weight of a ll of the occupants and luggage or othe r cargo that the vehicle can carry
. For the location of the label=>

& WARNING
Overloading a vehicle can cau se lo ss of vehicle control , a cra sh or
other a ccident , seriou s personal injury , and even de ath .
• Carrying more weight th an your vehi cle w as designed to ca rry
will prevent the vehi cle from handling properly and in cre ase the
ri sk of the lo ss of vehicle control.
• The brakes on a veh icle th at ha s been overloaded ma y not be
able to stop the vehicle within a safe distance .
• Tire s on a vehicle that has been overloaded can fail suddenly,
i ncluding a blowout and sudden defla tion , cau sin g los s of control
and a crash .
• Alwa ys make sure that the tot al l oad be ing tran sported -
including the weight of a trai ler hit ch and the tongue weight of a
loaded trailer -does not m ake the vehicle heavie r than the
v ehicle 's Gro ss Vehicle Weight Rat ing .•
Determining correct load limit

total weight of the passengers and luggage or other things that you plan to
tran sport so that you can make sure that
your vehi cle will n ot be ov erlo ad ed.

- In se rt a rubber pad betwee n th e floor jack/ wo rk sh op
h oi st and the li ftin g p oin ts .
If you must lift your vehicle with a floor jack to work underneath , be
sure the vehicle is safely supported on stands intended for this
purpose .
Fr ont lifting point
The lifting poi nt is located on the floo r pan rei nforceme nt about at
the same leve l as the jack mounting point~ page
308, fig. 230. Do
not lift the vehicle at the vertical sill reinforcement.
Rear lifting point
The li ftin g point is locate d on t he vert ical re inforceme nt of th e low er
sil l for the on board jack~ page

Lifting with vehi cle ja ck
Refer to
~ page 296.
& WARNING
• To reduce the ri sk of serious injury and vehicle damage.
- Always l ift the vehicle only at the special workshop hoist and
floor jack lift points illustrated
~ page 308 , fig. 230 and
~ page 308, fig. 231.
- Failure to lift the vehicle at these points could cause the
vehicle to tilt or fall from a lift if there is a change in vehicle
weight distribution and balan ce . This might happen , for
e xample , when heavy components such as the engine block or
transmission are removed .
• When removing heavy components like these, anchor vehicle
to hoist or add correspond ing we ights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise , the vehicle might tilt or slip off the hoist ,
causing ser ious personal injury .
0 Note
• Be aware of the fo llowing po ints be fore l ifting the ve hicle:
- The vehicle should never be lifted o r ja cked up from under ­
neath the engine oil pan , the tran smis sion housing , the front or
rear a xle or the body side members. This could lead to serious
damage.
- To avoid damage to the underbody or chassis frame , a rubber
pad must be inserted between the floor jack and the lift points .
- Before dr iving over a workshop hoist , check that the vehicle
weight does not exceed the permis sible lifting capacity of the
hoist .
- Before driving over a workshop hoist , en sure that there i s
sufficient clearance between the hoist and low parts of the
vehicle. •

Weights
G ross V ehicl e W eight R atin g
The Gross Vehic le Weight Rating (GVWR), and the Gross Axle Weigh t
Rating (GAWR) for front and rear are listed on a sticker on the left
door ja mb.
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating includes the weight of the basic
vehicle pl us fu ll f uel tank, oil and coolant, plus maximum load,
wh ic h inc ludes passenger weight (150 lbs/68 kg per designated
seating position) and luggage weight.
Gross Axle We ight Rating
The Gross Axle Weight Rating is the maximum load that can be
app lied at each axle of the vehicle~ &.
Vehicle capacity weight
The vehicle capacity weigh t (max. load) is listed ei ther on the
driver's side B -p illar or inside the fuel filler flap .
& WARNING
• The actual Gro ss Axle Weight Rating at the front and rear axles
s h ould not e xceed the permi ssible weight s, and their comb in ation
mu st not exceed the Gro ss Vehicle Wei ght Rating.

ARNING (conti nued )
• Exceeding pe rmi ssible weight ratings can result in vehicle
d am age , ac ciden ts a nd per sonal inj ury .
0 Note
• The vehicle capacity weight figures apply when the load is
distributed even ly 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 possib le so that the vehicle 's
handl ing is not impai red.
• Do not exceed the maximum permiss ib le axle loads or the
maximum gross vehicle weight . Always remember tha t the veh ic le's
handling wil l be affected by the extra load. Therefore, adjust your
speed according ly .
• Always observe local regulations. •
Dimensions
The specifications refer to the basic model. Differences may occur
depending on the mode l type and op tions o rdered, for example, tire
sizes.
0 Note
When driving up steep ramps, on rough roads, over curbs , etc . it is
important to remember that some parts of your vehic le, such as
spoilers or exhaust system components, may be close to the
