the right into the tiptronic selector gate to acti­
vate tiptronic mode. As soon as the automatic
gearbox has activated this mode, the letter M
will appear on the infotainment display

,.. To shift down a gear, briefly pull the paddle lev-
er 0.
If you use the paddle levers when the selector
lever is in positions D/S, the gearbox will remain
in manual mode for a while. To switch back im­
mediately to automatic mode after changing
gears manually, pull the paddle lever 0
¢ Fig. 80 for approximately 1 second.
If you want to use the paddle levers permanently,
push the selector lever from position D/S to the
right into the tiptronic selector gate.
The gearbox automatically shifts up or down into
the next gear before a critical engine speed is
reached.
The gearbox only allows manual gear changes if
the engine speed would remain within the per­
missible range.
Kick-down feature
Applies to vehicles: with S tronic gearbox
The kick-down feature is designed to give maxi­
mum acceleration.
When the accelerator pedal is pressed right down
past the point of resistance at full throttle, the
gearbox will shift down to a lower gear, depend­
ing on road speed and engine speed. The upshift
to the next higher gear is delayed until the en­
gine reaches maximum rpm.
A WARNING
Please note that if the road surface is slippery
or wet, the kick-down feature could cause the
driving wheels to spin, which could result in
skidding.
Coasting mode
Applies to vehicles: with S tronic gearbox
In coasting mode, you can use the vehicle's kinet­
ic energy to drive without using the accelerator
on certain stretches of road. This saves fuel by al­
lowing you to take your foot off the accelerator
earlier and let the vehicle coast (for instance

up area).
Switching on coasting mode
Important: Selector lever must be in D, gradient
must be less than 12 %.
"' Select efficiency mode in drive select*

"' Ta ke your foot off the accelerator.
If you have selected the "on-board computer"
display, the message Coasting will then appear.
The gearbox automatically disengages the clutch
at speeds above 20 km/h and lets the vehicle
coast without the engine braking effect. The en­
gine ticks over at idling speed while the vehicle is
coasting.
Stopping coasting mode
"' Press the brake pedal or accelerator.
To use the engine braking effect and overrun fuel
cut-off again, all you need to do is tap the brake
pedal briefly.
You can improve your fuel economy and help to
reduce emissions by using a combination of the
coasting mode (i.e. coasting with low fuel con­
sumption on a longer stretch of road) and the
overrun fuel cut-off (i.e. using the engine brak­
ing effect with no fuel consumption on a shorter
stretch of road).
A WARNING
- If you are approaching an obstruction when
coasting mode is switched on, please re­
member that the vehicle will not slow down
as quickly as usual when you take your foot
off the accelerator -risk of accident!
- The vehicle can pick up speed if you are driv­
ing down a slope in coasting mode -risk of
accident!

mode.
@ Note
- Coasting mode is only available in efficiency
mode (drive select*).
- The message Coasting only appears when
the current fuel consumption display is se­
lected. The gear is no longer displayed when
you are in coasting mode (e.g. E instead of

.... Four-wheel
drive
(quattro)
Applies to vehicles: with four-wheel drive
On quattro models the engine power is distrib­
uted to all four wheels.
General notes
On four-wheel drive vehicles, the engine power is
distributed to all four wheels. The distribution of
power is controlled automatically according to
your driving style and the road conditions. Also
refer to ¢ page 102, Electronic stabilisation con­
trol (£SC).
The four-wheel drive is specially designed to
complement the superior engine power of your
Audi. This combination gives the car exceptional
handling and performance capabilities -both on
normal roads and in more difficult conditions,
such as snow and ice. Even so (or perhaps espe­
cially for this reason), it is important to observe
certain safety points¢.&,..
Winter tyres
Thanks to its four-wheel drive, your car will have
plenty of traction in winter conditions, even with
the standard tyres. Nevertheless, we still recom­
mend that winter tyres or all-season tyres should
be fitted on all four wheels when winter road
conditions are expected, mainly because this will
give a better braking response.
Snow chains
On roads where snow chains are mandatory, this
also applies to cars with four-wheel drive
¢ page 234, Snow chains.
Replacing tyres On vehicles with four-wheel drive, all four tyres
must have the same rolling circumference. Also
avoid using tyres with varying tread depths
¢ page 231, New wheels or tyres.
Off-road er?
Your Audi does not have enough ground clear­
ance to be used as an off-road vehicle. It is there­
fore best to avoid rough tracks and uneven ter­
rain as much as possible. Intelligent
technology
_&. WARNING
- Even with four-wheel drive, you should al­
ways adjust your speed to suit the condi­
tions. Do not let the extra safety provided
tempt you into taking any risks when driving
- this can cause accidents.
- The braking ability of your car is limited by
the grip of the tyres. In this respect, your
car is no different from a car without four­
wheel drive. So do not be tempted to drive
too fast on icy or slippery roads just because
the car still has good acceleration in these
conditions -risk of accident!
- On wet roads bear in mind that the front
wheels may start to "aquaplane" and lose
contact with the road if the car is driven too
fast. If this should happen, there will be no
sudden increase in engine speed to warn the
driver, as with a front-wheel drive car. So do
not drive too fast in the wet: adjust your
speed to suit the conditions (accident risk).
Rear spoiler
Applies to vehicles: with automatic rear spoiler
The automatic rear spoiler increases the car's
stability.
Fig. 112 Centre console: Button for rear spoiler
The rear spoiler can be extended or retracted
manually or automatically.
Automatic mode (normal operation)
- Automatic extension: The rear spoiler is auto­
matically extended at road speeds above ap-
proximately 120 km/h.
