• Tire pressure must only be adjusted when the temperature of the
tires is about the same as ambient air temperature .
• The yellow symbol disappears, when the tire pressure is corrected
and the new pressure is sto red in the system ~
page 330.
• After changing a wheel you have to adjust the tire pressures on all
wheels. In addition, you must then initialize the new tire pressures in
the tire pressure monitoring system~
page 330.
• If
your vehicle is equipped with a spare tire* with a wheel sensor,
the tire will be monitored and the display symbols~
page 328,
fig. 257 or~ page 328, fig. 258 will appear if the pressure is too
low .a

Storing tire pressures
Correct storage of specified pressure is the basic require­
ment for reliable tire pressure monitoring.
In order for the tire pressure monitoring system to operate
appropriately, you have to re-save the specified pressures
whenever you adjust tire pressure, for example when the load
condition of your vehicle changes . Proceed as follows:
Corr ecting tir e pr essure
- Check the pressure in the tires (including the spare t ire*) .
- Adjust air pressure as needed in accordance with t he infor -
mation on the label located e ither on the driver's side B ­
pillar (visible when the door is open), inside the fuel filler
flap and additionally in the manual.
Saving tire p ressures
- Turn on the ignition.
- Press the [
CAR] function button .
- Select
Systems in the CAR menu .
- Select
Tire pressure mon itoring .
-Select Sto re curr. tire pressure s~ page 329, fig . 259 .
All pressure warning indicators in the display will be canceled.
Following each intentional change in specified pressures, tire pres­
sures must be resaved . After the
pressures are saved, the tire pressure monitoring system
measures the c urrent tire pressures and saves them as the new spec­
ified pressures .
(I] Tips
• The tire pressure is shown on the tire pressure label. On USA vehi­
cles, the tire pressure label is located on the driver's side B-pillar. On
Canada veh icles, the tire pressure label is located either on the
driver's side B-pillar or inside the fuel filler flap . The tire pressure
label lists the recommended cold t ire inflation pressures for the
vehicle at its maximum capacity weight and the tires that were on
your vehicle at the time it was manufactured. For recommended tire
pressures for normal load conditions, please see chapter
=> page 310.
• The tire pressure monitoring system helps the driver to keep an
eye on tire p ressures. But the driver still has the responsib ility for
maintaining the correct tire pressure .
• If your veh icle is eq uipped w ith a standard spare ti re*, it must be
inflated to the maximum pressure specified for the vehicle .•
A pp lies to vehicles: with T ire pressu re monitor ing system

For your safety, we recommend that you hove your autho ­
rized Audi dealer replace burned out bulbs for you.
It is becoming increasingly more and more difficult to replace veh icle
light bu lbs since in many cases, other parts of the car must first be
removed before you are able to get to the bulb. This applies especially
to the light bulbs in the front of your car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment.
•
Sheet metal and bu lb holders can have sharp edges that can cause
serious cuts, and parts must be correctly taken apart and then prop- .,

rack".
& WARNING
• The actual Gross A xle Weight Rating at the front and rear a xles
s hould not exceed the permis sible weights , and their combination
must not exceed the Gros s Vehicl e Weight Rat ing .
• Exceeding permi ssible weight ratings can result in vehicle
damage, accidents and personal injury.
0 Note
• T he vehicle capac ity we ight figures apply when the load is distrib­
uted evenly i n the vehicle (passengers and lug gage). When trans ­
porting a heavy load i n the luggage compartment, ca rry the load as
near to the rear axle as possible so that the ve hicle's handling is not
impa ired.
• Do not exceed the max imum permissible axle loads o r the
maximum gross veh icle weight. Always remember that the vehicle's
handling will be affecte d by the extra load. Therefore, adjust your
speed according ly .
• Always observe loca l reg ulat ions. •

Maintenance
General
Yo ur vehicle has been des igned to help keep main tenance req uire­

reliability. For detailed vehicle maintenance consult your Warranty &
Maintenance booklet.
Under difficult operating conditions, for example at extremely low
outside temperatures, in very dusty regions, when towing a trailer
very frequently, etc., some service work shou ld be performed
between the intervals specified. This app lies particularly to:
• oil changes, and
• cleaning or replacing the air filter.
<£> For the sake of the environment
By regularly maintaining your vehicle, you help make sure that emis­
sion standards are maintained, thus minimizing adverse effects on
the environment. •
Important considerations for you and your
vehicle
T he increasing use of electronics, sophisticated fuel injection and
em ission control systems, and the generally increasing technical
complexity of today's automobiles, have steadily reduced the scope
of mai ntenance and repai rs which can be carried out by vehicle
owners.
Also, safety and environmental concerns place very strict
limits on the nature of repairs and adjustments to engine and trans­
mission parts which an owner can perform.
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually require special tools,
testing devices and other equipment available to spec ially trained
workshop personnel in order to assure proper performance, reli­
ability and safety of the vehicle and its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs can impair the oper­
ation and reliability of your vehicle and even void you r vehicle
warranty . Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with the ma in­
tenance schedule may be a condition for upholding a possible
warranty claim made w ith in the warranty period . Above all, operat
ional safety can be adversely affected, creating
unnecessary r isks for you and you r passengers.
If in doubt about any serv ic ing, have it done by your authorized Audi
dealer or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We
st rongly urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the opportunity
to perform all scheduled maintenance and necessary repairs. Your
dealer has the facilities, original parts and trained specialists to keep
your vehicle running properly.
Performing limited maintenance yourself
The following pages describe a limited number of procedures which
can be performed on your vehicle with ord inary tools, should the need
arise and trained personne l be unavailable. Before performing any of
these procedures, always thoroughly read all of the applicable text
and carefully follow the instructions given. Always rigorously observe
the
WARNINGS prov ided .
Before you check anything in the engine compartment, always read
and heed all WARNINGS ~
& and~ & in "Working in the engine
compartment" on
page 289.
& WARNING
• Serious personal injury may occur as a result of improperly
performed maintenance, adjustments or repairs.
• Always be extremely careful when working on the vehicle.
Always follow commonly accepted safety practices and general
common sense. Never risk personal injury.
• Do not attempt any of the maintenance, checks or repairs
described on the following pages if you are not fully familiar with
the se or other procedures with respect to the vehicle, or are uncer­
tain how to proceed.
• Do not do any work without the proper tools and equipment.
Have the necessary work done by your authorized Audi dealer or
another properly equipped and qualified workshop .
