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 <=>
page 236.
@ Tips
The tire pressure or temperature are not dis­ played in adaptation mode. Dashes ··.·· are
shown in place of the pressure and tempera­
ture .

"' Avoid unnecessary steering and braking maneu-
vers .
"' Adapt your dr iving sty le to the situation .
"' Stop as soon as possible and check the tire(s).
"' If it is possib le to continue driving, see an au-

Facility immediately and have your tire(s) re­
pa ired or rep laced.
A WARNING
Read and follow the important i nformation
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
ture, the tire pressure must be increased ap­
proximately 0 .2 bar above the value on the
sticker .
"' Switch the ignition on .
"' Select:
!CAR ! function button> Car systems>
Tire pressure monitor > Store tire pressures .
After storing, the tire pressure monitoring sys­
tem measures the current tire pressures and
stores them as the new specified pressures .
"'If the changed tire pressures are not displayed
in the Infotainment system, drive the vehicle
for approximately 10 minutes so that the sen­
sor signal from the wheels is received again .
During this adaptation phase, ··.·· is displayed
for the pressure and temperature and the tire
pressure monitoring system is only partially
available .
It only prov ides a warning if one or
more tire pressures is below the minimum per­
mitted spec ified pressu re. If this is the case, the
