Electronic differential lock (EOL)
The electronic differential lock monitors the rotational
speed of the drive wheels.
General notes
The electronic differential lock (EDU helps the car to start moving,
accelerate and climb a gradient on surfaces providing poor or
almost no grip. Without EDL, this would be difficult, if not impos ­
sible.
How the system works
Th e EDL operates automatically. It monitors the rotational speed of
the drive wheels on an axle with the help of the ABS sensors
=> page 187. If a noticeable difference in rotational speed between
the drive wheels on one axle is detected (e.g. on slippery ground on
one side), the spinning wheel is braked, thereby transferring power
to the other drive wheel or wheels (all-wheel drivel. This is done up
to a speed of about 60 mph (100 km/hl. Noises from the brake
system signal that wheel spin is being controlled.
Driving off
When driving off, always be sure to keep road conditions in mind as
you accelerate . If one drive wheel spins because it is on a surface
with less grip, gradually increase the pressure on the accelerator
pedal until the car starts to move. The wheel less able to transfer
power spins.
Overheating of brakes
To prevent the disc brake of the braked wheel from overheating if
subjected to excessive loads, the EDL cuts out temporarily . The
vehicle remains operational and behaves in the same way as a
vehicle without EDL.
As soon as the brake has cooled down, EDL switches on again auto­
matically.
& WARNING
• When accelerating on slippery surfaces, such as on ice or snow,
always be careful when depressing the accelerator pedal. Even
with the EDL working, the drive wheels can spin and reduce your ability to control your car. -Risk of crash!
• The increased safety afforded by EDL does not mean that you
can take safety risks. Always adapt your driving style to the road
conditions and traffic situation.
[ i] Tips
If a fault occurs in the ABS, the EDL is also not functioning . This is
indicated by the ABS warning light=> page 20. •
Anti-Slip Regulation System (ASR)
The Anti-Slip Regulation System prevents the driven
wheels from spinning when the car is accelerating.
General notes
The Anti-Slip Regulation System (ASR) is integrated in the electronic
stabilization program (ESP). When the vehicle starts up and acceler ­
ates , the wheels are prevented from spinning by adjusting the
engine power to match the amount of grip available from the road
surface .
How the system works
ASR performs automatically, i.e. without the driver's intervention .
With the aid of the ABS sensors => page
187, ASR monitors the
speed of the driven wheels. If the wheels start to spin, the engine
torque is reduced automatically until the tires find enough grip to
lock onto the road surface . The system is active across the entire
speed range.
The ASR works in conjunction with the ABS. If a malfunction should
occur in the ABS, the ASR will also be out of action .

& WARNING
Using the wrong snow chains for your vehicle or installing them
incorrectly can increase the risk of loss of control leading to
serious personal injury.
• Snow chains are available in different sizes . Always make sure
to follow the instructions provided by the snow chain manufac ­
turer .
• When driving with snow chains never drive faster than the
speed permitted for your spec ific snow chains.
• Always observe local regulations.

t o rq ue .
The design of wheel bolts is matched to the facto ry instal led rims . If
diff eren t rim s are fitt ed, t he cor rect w heel bol ts with the r ig ht le ngth
and correctly shaped bolt heads must be used. This ensures that
w hee ls a re fitted securely and t hat t he brake sys te m funct io ns
correctly.
In cer tain ci rc u ms tances, yo u may no t use whee l b olt s fro m a

page 295.
& WARNING
Improperly tightened or maintained wheel bolts can become loose
causing loss of control, a collision and serious personal injury .
• Always keep the wheel bolts and the threads in the wheel hubs
clean so the wheel bolts can turn easily and be properly tightened .
• Never grease or oil the wheel bolts and the threads in the wheel
hubs. They can become loose while driving if greased or oiled,
even if tightened to the specified torque.
• Only use wheel bolts that belong to the rim be ing installed.
• Never use different wheels bolts on your vehicle.
• Always maintain the correct tightening torque for the wheel
bolts to reduce the risk of a wheel loss .
If the tightening torque of
the wheel bolts is too low , they can loosen and come out when the
vehicle is moving. If the tightening torque is too high, the wheel
bolts and threads can be damaged and the wheel can become
loose .

Low aspect ratio tires
Your Audi is factory-equipped with low aspect ratio tires. These t ires
have been thorough ly tested and been selected specifically for your
model for their superb performance , road feel and hand ling under
a variety of driving conditions . Ask your authorized Audi dealer for
more deta ils.
The low aspect rat io of these t ires is indicated by a numera l of
5 5 or
les s
in the tire's si ze designation. The numeral represents the ratio
of the tire's sidewa ll height in relation to its tread wid th expressed
in perc entage. Conv entiona l tires have a h eight/width ratio of 60 or
more .
The p erform an ce of lo w-aspe ct-r a tio tire s is pa rti cula rly sen siti ve to
improp er inflation pre ssure . It i s ther efore important that low
a spect ratio tir es are inflat ed to the sp ec ified pre ssure and th at the
i nflation pr es su re is regularl y checked and mainta ined . Tire pr es­
s ure s should be che cked at le ast once a month and alw ay s before a
long tr ip :::;, page
247, "Checking tire pressure".
What you can d o to av oid tire and rim d amage
Low aspect ratio tires can be damaged more easi ly by impact with
potholes, curbs, gul lies or r idges on the road, particularly i f the t ire
is underinflated.
In order to min imize the occurrence of impact damage to the tires
of your vehicle , we recommend that you observe the following
precautions:
• Always maintain recommended inflat ion pressures . Check your
tire pressure every 2 ,000 miles (3,000 km) and add air if necessary.
• Drive carefully on roads with potholes , deep gullies or ridges.
The impact from driving through or over such obstacles can
damage your t ires. Impact with a curb may also cause damage to
your tires . •
After any impact , immediately inspect your tires or have them
inspected by the neares t authorized Audi dea ler . Replace a
damaged tire as soon as possib le.
• Inspec t you r 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 underin flation, which cou ld eventua lly cause tire fai lure. If
you be lieve that a tire may have been damaged , replace the tire as
soon as possible .
• These tires may wear more quickly than others.
• Please also remember that, while these tires de liver responsive
handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than
other choices.
R edu ced p erform an ce in w int er/c old sea son
c ondition s
All tires are designed for c ertain purposes . The low aspect ratio,
ultra h igh performance tires origina lly instal led o n your vehic le are
intended for maximum dry and wet road performance and hand ling.
They are no t sui table for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions . If
you drive under those circumstances , you should equip your vehic le
with al l- season or winte r ti res, which offer better tract ion under
those conditions . We suggest you use the recommended snow or
all -season tires specified for your vehicle, or their equiva lent.

Loosening and tightening the wheel bolts
The wheel bolts must be loosened before raising the
vehicle.
Loosening
Fig . 163 Wheel
change: loosening the
wheel bolts
- Fit the wheel bolt wrench over the wheel bolt and push it
down as far as it will go .
- Close your grip around the
end of the wrench handle for
maximum torque and turn the wheel bolts
counter-clock­
wise
about one single turn in the direction of arrow
~ fig. 163.
Tightening
Fit the wheel bolt wrench over the wheel bolt and push it
down as far as it will go.
- Close your grip around the
end of the wrench handle for
maximum torque and turn each wheel bolt
clockwise
until it sits tight.
& WARNING
• Using force without control to speed the wheel change up can
cause the vehicle to slip off the jack and cause serious personal
injuries.
• Do not loosen the wheel bolts more than one turn before you
raise the vehicle with the jack. -Risk of injury!
[ i] Tips
• Never try and use the hexagonal socket in the handle of the
screwdriver to loosen or tighten the wheel bolts.
• If a wheel bolt sits very tight, you may find it easier to loosen by
carefully pushing down on the end of the wheel bolt wrench with
one foot only . As you do, hold on to the car to keep yourself stable
and take care not to slip.•
Raising the vehicle
The vehicle must be lifted with the jack first before the
wheel can be removed.

wrench as soon as possible by your authorized Audi dealer or a qualified service station .
• With steel and alloy wheel rims, the wheel bolts are correctly
tightened at a torque of 90 ft lb (120 Nm l.
• If you notice while changing a tire that the wheel bolts are
corroded and difficult to turn , then they should be replaced before
you check the tightening torque.
• Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it installed on your
vehicle as soon as possible . Remount the wheel cover.
Until then , drive with extra care and at reduced speeds .
& WARNING
• If you are going to equip your vehicle with tires or rims which
differ from those which were factory installed , then be sure to read
the information
=> page 246, "New tires and replacing tires and
wheels ".
• Always store the tools securely in luggage compartment .
Otherwise, in an accident or sudden maneuver they could fly
forward, causing injury to passengers in the vehicle.
