Warning light in th e instrument clus ter
di splay
If the . warning light in the instrument cluster
display flashes , this can mean one of two th ings:
either the coolant
t emperature is too high, or the
coolan t
level is too low 9 page 29.
If the needle is well in the upper area of the
gauge, the coo lant temperature is too high.
S top
the veh icle , switc h the engin e off, and allo w i t
to coo l.
If the warning light comes on again after
driving a short distance , contact an authorized
Aud i dealer or other q ualified workshop .
..&, WARNING
-Always observe the warni ng i n 9 page 221,
before opening the hood and chec king the
engine coolan t level.
- Never open the engine hood if you see o r
hear steam, or if you see engine coolant
dr ipping from the engine compartmen t. You
cou ld burn yourself . Let the engine cool off
first so that you cannot hear o r see any
steam or engine coo lant.
CD Note
- M ount ing additional lights or accesso ries in
front of the air inlets red uces the cooling ef
fect of the radiator . At high outside temper
atures or high engine load, the eng ine could
overheat .
- The front spoiler has been designed to prop
erly distribute the cooling air when the veh i
cle is moving . If the spoiler is damaged, this
could reduce the cooling effect and the en
gine could then overheat. Ask your author

Cooling system
Coolant
T he engine coolant performs two functions: it
keeps the engine from overheating and it pro
tects the engine from freezing in the winter .
The cooling system is sealed and generally re
qu ires little attention .
T he cooling system has been filled at the factory
with a permanent coolant which doe s not need to
be changed . T he cool ant consists of a mixture of
specia lly condit io ned water and the ma nufactur
e r's g lycol-basedcoo lant additive G 13 antifreeze
w ith a nticorros ion add itives (50% for USA mod
e ls; 60% for Canadian models) . Thi s m ixt ure bot h
a ssures the ne cessary frost protection and pro
tec ts meta l components in the engine 's cooling
system from corrosion and sca ling. It a lso raises
the boiling point of the coolant.
D o not red uce the conce ntra tion o f th e coo lant i n
the summer by add ing p la in wa ter.
The propor
tion of coolant additive must be at least 50% but not more than 60 %
to maintain antifreeze
protection and cooling efficiency . If the coolant
frost protection is too low, the coolan t could
freeze and damage t he vehicle heat ing and en
g ine cooling system .
For yea r-round driving, antifree ze is added at the
factory for tempe ratu res down to:
- -31°F ( -35°C) USA
- - 4 0°F ( - 40°C) C anada .
I f yo u mu st add coo lant, use a m ixt ure of wate r
a nd coolant add it ive. Mixing the coolant additive
with d istilled water is recommende d.
_& WARNING
Be fore yo u check any thing i n the engine com
par tment, always read and hee d all WAR N-
Checking and Fillin g
IN GS ¢ .& in Working in the engine compart
ment on page 221.
@ Note
- Be fore winte r sets in , have the coo lant
checke d to see if the coolant additive in you r
vehicle is sufficient to meet the climate con diti ons. This is espec ia lly important if you
live in a region where the winter is extreme
ly cold . If necessary, increase the p ropo rtion
o f coolan t addi tive to 60%.
- Whe n adding coolant additive to your cool
ing system, remember :
- We recommend using o nly coo lan t add i
tive G12++ o r G13 fo r yo ur vehicle . This
coolant ad dit ive is available at author ized
A ud i dealers . Othe r types of antifreeze ca n
significantly reduce cor rosion protect ion .
The resulting cor rosion can ca use a loss of
coolant a nd serious e ngine damage .
- Do not add any type of rad iator leak sealant
to your vehicle's engine coolant. Adding ra diat or repa ir flu id may adverse ly affect the
function and perfo rmance of your cooling
system and cou ld result i n damage not cov
ere d by your New Vehicle Lim ited W arra nty .

Checking and Filling
"'Park your vehicle on a level surface.
"'Turn off the ignition.
"'Read the engine coolant level from the coolant
expansion tank
c:> fig . 200, <=> page 223,
fig. 197. With a cold engine, the coolant level
should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" mark
ings . When the engine is warm, the level may
be slightly above the "MAX" marking .
The location of the coolant expansion tank can be
seen in the engine compartment illustration
<=> page 223 .
To obtain an accurate reading, the engine must
be switched off.
The expansion tank in your vehicle is equipped
with an electric coolant level sensor.
When the coolant level is too low, the warning
light in the Auto-Check System
c::> page 29 will
blink until you add coolant and the level has been
restored to normal. Even though there is an elec
tric coolant level sensor, we still recommend you
check the coolant level from time to time .
Coolant loss
Coolant loss may indicate a leak in the cooling
system. In the event of coolant loss, the cooling
system should be inspected immediately by your
authorized Audi dealer. It is not enough merely
to add coolant .
In a
sealed system, losses can occur only if the
boiling point of the coolant is exceeded as a re
sult of overheating.
0 Note
Do not add any type of radiator leak sealant
to your vehicle's engine coolant . Adding radia
tor repair fluid may adversely affect the func
tion and performance of your cooling system
and could result in damage not covered by
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty .

Consumer information
today's automobiles, have steadily reduced the
scope of maintenance and repairs 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 en
gine and transmission parts which an owner can perform .
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually re
quire special tools , testing devices and other
equipment available to specially trained work
shop personnel in order to assure proper per
formance, reliability and safety of the vehicle and its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs
can impair the operation and reliability of your
vehicle and even
void your vehicle warranty .
Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with
the maintenance schedule may be a condition for
upholding a possible warranty claim made within
the warranty period .
Above all, operational safety can be adversely af
fected, creating unnecessary risks for you and
your passengers.
If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by
your authorized Audi dealer or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We strongly
urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the
opportunity to perform all scheduled mainte nance 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 vehi
cle with ordinary tools, should the need arise and
trained personnel be unavailable. Before per
forming any of these procedures, always thor
oughly read all of the applicable text and carefully follow the instructions given . Always rigorously
observe the
