(D Tips
- If
the engine is running while fueling, va
pors can escape or the fuel can spill over.
Because of th is, the fuel nozz le switches off
before th e tank is full.
- Do not fue l the vehicle when the ignition is
switc hed on. Otherwise, the fuel gauge may
not show the correct level after fueling the
vehicle.
- Diesel vehicles are equipped with a diesel
misfueling guard
l). It allows the vehicle to
be fueled on ly w ith a diesel fuel p ump noz
zle .
- A worn o r damaged nozzle or a nozz le that
i s too sma ll may not be able to open the die

-If you have the impression your engine con
sumes excessive amounts of oi l, we recom
mend that you consult an authorized Audi
dealer to have the cause of your concern
properly diagnosed. Keep in mind that the
accurate measurement of oil consumption
requires great care and may take some time.
An authorized Audi dealer has instr uctions
about how to measure oil consumption ac
curately.
Checking the engine oil level
Fig. 159 Gasoline engine oil dipstick: guide for measuring
t h e oil leve l (example)
F ig . 160 Diesel engine oil dipstick : g ui de for measuring the
oil level (example)
Determining the oil level
• Park your vehicle on a level surface.
• Let the engine run in idle briefly while it is at
operating temperature and then shut the en gine off.
• Wait approximately two minutes.
• Remove the oil dipstick. Wipe off the oil dip
stick with a clean cloth and insert it all the way
in again .
• Remove the dipstick again and then read the oil
level¢
fig. 159 or ¢ fig. 160.
Checking and Filling
• Evaluate the oil leve l c;, table on page 203. Add
engine oi l if necessary
¢ page 203.

0 Do not add any oil.
@ Do not add any oil. You may continue driv-
ing.
0 Do not add any oil. Drive to an author ized
A udi dealer or authorized A udi Service Fa-
cility immediately.
Applies to vehicles with diesel engines: if you op
erate your vehicle with biodiesel, fuel may enter
the engine oil. This raises the oi l level in the en
gine. It also decreases the quality of the engine
oil ¢page23.
The oil consumption of the engine may be up to
1/2 quart per 600 mi les (0 .5 liter per 1,000 km),
depending on driving style and cond itions. Con
s umption may be higher during the first
3,000 miles (5,000 km). Because of this, the en
gine oil level must be checked regularly. It would
be best to check each time you refue l your vehicle
and before long drives.

"'Add oil, if necessary.
"'Close the engine oil filler cap and push the dip
stick all the way in.
A WARNING
- When adding oil, do not let oil drip onto hot
engine components. There could be risk of a
fire.
- You must secure the cap on the oil filler
opening correctly so that oil does not leak
out onto the hot engine and exhaust system
when the engine is running, because this is
a fire hazard.
- Always clean skin thoroughly if it comes into
contact with engine oil.
(D Note
- Applies to vehicles with gasoline engines:
the oil level cannot be above the
0 range
¢ page 203, fig. 159, because this can
cause damage to the catalytic converter or
the engine. Contact an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility to
have excess oil extracted if necessary.
- Applies to vehicles with diesel engines: the
oil level must not be in the
(v range
¢ page 203, fig. 160 -The oil must not be
extracted, because this can damage the en
gine. Drive to an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility immediate ly .
- Do not mix any additional lubricants into
the engine oil. Damage cause by such addi
tives is not covered by the warranty.
@ For the sake of the environment
- Oil should never enter the sewer system or
come into contact with the ground.
- Pay attention to legal requirements when
disposing of empty oil containers .

· Changing the engine oil
We recommend that have your oil changed by an
authorized Audi dealer or a qualified service sta tion.
Before you check anything in the engine compart
ment,
always read and heed all WARNINGS
¢ page 198.
The engine oil must be changed according to the
intervals specified in your Warranty & Mainte
nance booklet . This is very important because the
lubricating properties of oil diminish gradually
during normal vehicle use.
Under some circumstances the engine oil should
be changed more frequently. Change oil more of
ten if you drive mostly short distances, operate
the vehicle in dusty areas or under predominantly stop-and-go traffic conditions, or have your vehi
cle where temperatures remain below freezing
for extended periods.
Detergent additives in the oil will make fresh oil
look dark after the engine has been running for a
short time. This is normal and is not a reason to
change the oil more often than recommended.
Because of the problem of proper disposal, along
with the special tools and necessary expertise re
quired, we strongly recommend that you have
your oil changed by an authorized
Audi dealer or
a qualified service station.
If you choose to change your oil yourself , please
note the following important information:
A WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury if you
must change the engine oil in your vehicle
yourself:
- Wear eye protection.
-
- To reduce the risk of burns from hot engine
oil, let the engine cool down to the touch.
- When removing the oil drain plug with your
fingers, stay as far away as possible. Always
keep your forearm parallel to the ground to
help prevent hot oil from running down your
arm.

-Drain th e oi l into a container desi gned for
this purpose, one large enough to ho ld at
least the total amount of oil in your engine .
- Engine oil is poisonous . Keep it well out of
the reach of children.
- Continuo us contact with used engine oil is
harmful to your sk in. A lways protect your
sk in by washing oil off thoroughly w ith soap
and water.
(D Note
Never mix oi l addit ives with your engine oi l.
These additives can damage your eng ine and
adversely affect your Audi Limited New Veh i
cle Warranty .
@) For the sake of the environment
-Before changing your oi l, f irst make sure
you know where you can properly dispose of
the used oil.
- Always d ispose of used engine oil proper ly.
Do not dump it on garden soil, wooded
areas, into open streams or down sewage
d rains .
- Recycle used e ngine oi l by taking it to a used
engine oil collection facility in your area, or
contact a service station .
Cooling system
Coolant
The 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 sea led and generally re
q ui res lit tle atten tion.
The cooling system has been filled at the factory
w ith a pe rma nen t coolan t which does no t need to
be ch anged . T he coolant consists o f a mixture o f
specia lly condit ioned wa ter and the man ufactu r
er's glycol -based coolant additive Gl3 antifreeze
with anticor rosion add itives (SO% for USA mod
e ls · 60% for Canadian models) . Th is m ixture bot h

system from corrosion and scaling . It also raises
t h e boiling point of the coo lant .
D o no t redu ce the con cen tra tion of the coolan t in
the summer by ad ding plain water.
The prop or
tion of coolant additive mu st be at least 50%
but not more than 60%
to maintai n antifr eeze
protection and cooling efficiency . If the coo lant
frost pro tec tion is too low, the coo lant co uld
freeze and damage the vehicle heating and en
gine cooling system .
For year- ro und driving, antifreeze is added at the
factory for temperatures down to :
-- 31°F(-3S° C)USA
- -40 °F ( - 40 ° C) C anada.
If you must add coolant, use a mixture of water
and coolant additiv e. Mix ing the coo lant add it ive
with dis tilled wa te r is recommended .
A WARNING
Befo re you c hec k anythi ng i n the engi ne com
partment, always re ad and heed a ll WA RN
IN GS
~page 198.
(D Note
- Befor e wi nter sets in , have the coo la nt
c hecke d to see if the cool an t additive in you r
vehicle is sufficient to meet the climate con
ditions . This is espec ia lly impo rtant if you
live in a region where the winter is extreme
ly cold . If necessary, increase the proportion
of coolant additive to 60%.
- When adding coolant additive to yo ur cool
ing system, remember:
- We recommend us ing o nly coo la nt addi
tive G12 ++ o r G13 ( che ck the label) fo r
your ve hicl e. This coolant addi tive is av ail
a ble at autho rized Aud i dea le rs . Othe r
types of ant ifreeze can significant ly re
d uce corrosion protection. The resulting
corrosion can ca use a loss o f coolant and
serious engine damage.
- Do not add any type of rad iator leak sealant
to y our vehicle's engine coolant. Adding ra

cooling system.
A WARNING
The cooling system is pressurized and can be
come very hot. To reduce the risk of burns
from hot coolant:
- Do not open the coolant expansion tank cap
w ith the engine hot. There is a risk of burns .
- Stop the eng ine and a llow it to cool.
- Protect your face, hands and arms from es-
caping coolant and steam by covering the
coo lant tank cap with a large, thick cloth.
- Turn the coolant tank cap counterclockwise
slowly and keep light pressure on the cap.
- To reduce the risk of burns, do not allow any
antifreeze or coolant to drip onto the e x
haust system or hot engine components.
The ethy lene glycol in engine coola nt can
catch fire under certa in circumstances.
- The coolant additive and the coolant can be
dangerous to your health. For this reason,
keep the coolant in the o riginal container
away from ch ildren . The re is a risk of poison
ing .
- W hen working in the engine compartment,
remember that the rad iator fa n can switch
on ev en if the ignition is switched off, wh ich
increases the risk of pe rsonal injury.
@ Note
Do not add coolant if the expans ion tank is
empty . Air cou ld enter the cooling system and
damage the eng ine. If this is the case, do not
continue driving. See an author ized Audi deal
