measurement of oil consumption requires
great care and may take some time. Your
Audi dealer has instructions about how to measure oil consumption accurately.
Checking the engine oil level
The engine oil level con be checked in the Info
tainment system
Fig. 184 Infotainment: oil level indicator
~ Park your vehicle on a level surface .
~ Shut the engine off when it is warm .
~ Switch only the ignition back on.
~ Wait approximately two minutes.
~ Select: the ICARI function button > (Ca r)* Sys
tems
control button > Service & control > Oil
level.
~ Check the oil level in the Infotainment system
display ¢
fig. 184. Add engine oil if the bar of
the oil level indicator is near "min"
¢page 207.
Depending on the way the vehicle is driven and
the operating conditions, oil consumption can be
up to 1 quart per 600 miles (0.8 liter per 1,000
km) . Consumpt ion may be higher within the first
3,000 miles (5,000 km).
Because of this, the engine oil level must be
checked regularly . It would be best to check each
time you refuel your veh icle and before long
drives .
(D Tips
The oil level indicator in the instrument clus
ter display is only an informational display. If
the oil level is too low, a minimum oil warn ing
Checking and Filling
appears in the instrument cluster. Add oil. If
the hood was opened, the current oil level is
shown in the instrument cluster the next t ime
the ignition is switched on.

~ Shut the engine off .
~ Unscrew the cap~ to the engine oil filling

~ Top off the oil again, if necessary.
~ Screw the cap back on the filling hole.
A WARNING
--While topping off, the o il must not come in
contact with hot engine parts - fire hazard!
- The oil filler cap must be properly secured
to prevent oil from being sprayed on the hot
engine and exhaust system when the engine
is running -fire hazard!
- If your skin has come in contact with the en

thoroughly.

Wheels
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indicate when the sys
tem is not operat ing properly . The TPMS mal
function indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi
mately one minute and then remain cont inuously
illum inated . This sequence will continue upon
subsequent veh icle start-ups as long as the ma l
function ex ists .
When the malfunct io n indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressu re as intended . TP MS ma lfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate ti res or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. A lways check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure
t hat the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
Description
The tire pressure monitoring system monitors
the pressure in the four tires when driving .
The system uses sensors that measure the tem
perature and pressure in the tires. The data is
sent from these sensors to the control module by
radio frequency .
The tire pressure monitoring system shows the current pressures and temperatures of the tires in the Infotainment system
c.>page 236. It also
compares the current t ire pressures with the
stored tire pressures and gives a warning in the
driver information system if the tire pressure is
d ifferent from what is stored¢
page 237.
The system does not detect if the stored t i re
pressures match the recommended tire pres
sures. You must resave the tire pressures
c.> page 23 7:
-every time the tir e pressures change, for exam
ple when the load in the vehicle changes,
- after replac ing a tire, or
- if wheels with new wheel sensors are used .
236
A WARNING ,_
- The tire pressure monitoring system ass ists
the dr iver in monitoring tire pressures. The
driver is responsible for having the tires in
flated to the correct pressure.
- Do not change the t ire pressure when the
temperature of the tire is high . This could
result in serious damage to the tire and
even cause the tire to burst, increasing the
ris k of an accident.
- A tire with low pressure flexes more. This
heats the tire up too much. This could cause
the tread to separate and even cause the
tire to burst, increasing the risk of an acci
dent .
- The tire pressure monitoring system does
not warn about damage or defects in the
tire construction that could cause the tire to burst, for example. Inspect your t ires regu
larly.
@ Tips
- If tires are replaced, the sensors/va lves do
not need to be removed or replaced. Just re
placed the va lve stem and, if necessary, the
valve and the wheel electronics. If you have
questions, see your authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facility.
- An incorrect display or a malfunction in the
tire pressure monitoring system can occur
after using the tire mobility kit. Have the
sensors rep laced by an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
Display tire pressures/temperatures
Requirement: the ignition must be switched off.
.,. Select: the
I CARI funct ion button > Car systems
> Service & control > Tire pressure monitor >
Display tire pre ssure .
The current tire pressures are shown in green and
yellow numbers in the Infotainment system:
-green: the current tire pressure and the spec i
fied tire pressure are approx imately the same .
-yellow: the current tire pressure is too low
compared to the spec ified t ire pressure .
The specified tire pressure is the last tire pres
sure that was stored
¢ page 2 3 7 .
Note that the tire p ressure also depends on the
temperature of the t ire . Every 10 °C increase in
tire temperature results in the tire pressure in
creasing by approximate ly 0 .1 bar. The tire pres
sure increases as the eng ine becomes warmer
while driving.
A WARNING
Read and follow the important information
and notes <=>

Storing new tire pressures
Correctly stored tire pressure specifications are
necessary for reliable tire pressure monitoring.
"' Check the tire pressures in all wheels .
..
"'Cor rect the tire pressure if necessa ry. Refer to
the tire pressure label for the re commended
t ire pressure for your vehicle
c> page 228,
-
fig. 193 . Only correct the pressure in tires
whose temperature is approximately the same
as the ambient temperature. If the tempera
ture of the tire is higher than ambient tempera

proximately 0 .2 bar above the value on the
sticker .
"' Switch the ignition on .
"' Select:

After storing, the tire pressure monitoring sys
tem measures the current tire pressures and

sor signal from the wheels is received again .
