Checking and Filling
@ Tips
-The oil pressure warning display. is not
an indicator of the oil level. Do not rely on
it. Instead, check the oil level in your en­
gine at regular intervals, preferably each
time you refuel, and always before going
on a long trip.
- If you have the impression your engine con­
sumes excessive amounts of oil, we recom­
mend that you consu Lt your Audi dealer to
have the cause of your concern properly di­
agnosed . Keep in mind that the accurate
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 can be checked in the Info­
tainment system
Fig. 187 I n fo tai nme nt: oil level indic a to r
• 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
ICAR I function button > (Car)* Sys­
tems
control button > Service & control > Oil
level.
.. Check the oil level in the Infotainment system
display ¢
fig. 187. Add engine oil if the bar of
the oil level indicator is near "min"
¢page 220.
Depending on the way the vehicle is driven and
the operating conditions, oil consumption can be
up to 1/2 quart per 600 miles (0 .5 liter per
220
1,000 km). Consumption 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 vehicle and before long
drives.
{!) 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 warning
appears in the instrument cluster. Add oil. If
the hood was opened, the current oil level is
shown in the instrument cluster the next time
the ignition is switched on.
Adding engine oil 'l:::1:
Fig. 188 En g in e compartment : cover on the engine oil fill­
er neck
Before you check anything in the engine compart­
ment,
always read and heed all WARNINGS
¢ .&. in Working in the engine compartment on
page 216.
"Shut the engine off .
"Unscrew the cap~ to the engine oil filling
hole
¢ fig. 188, ¢page 218, fig. 186.
.. Carefully top off with 0.5 quarts (0.5 liters) of
the appropriate oil ¢
page 218.
.. Check the oil level again after two minutes
¢ page 220, Checking the engine oil level.
"Top off the oil again, if necessary.
"Screw the cap back on the filling hole.
_&. WARNING
- While topping off, the oil must not come in
contact with hot engine parts - fire hazard!

the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle
¢ page 241, fig. 196.
Tire tread circumference and vibration character­
istics can change and cause a tire pressure warn­
ing if:
- the tire pressure in one or more tires is too low.
- the tire has structural damage .
- the tire was replaced or the tire pressure was
changed and it was not stored¢
page 250.
-the spare tire* is installed.
Indicator lights
IE Loss of pressure in at least one tire¢&. .
Check the tires and replace or repair if necessary.
Check/correct the pressures of all four tires and
store the pressure again in the Infotainment sys­
tem ¢
page 250 .
mm (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Tire
pressure: System malfunction!.
Ifmm appears
after switching the ignition on or while driving
and the
IE indicator light in the instrument clus­
ter blinks for approximately one minute and then
stays on , there is system malfunction . Try to
store the correct tire pressures¢
page 250. If
the indicator light does turn off or turns on again
after a short period of time, drive to your author­
ized Audi dealer or qualified repair facility imme­
diate ly to have the malfunction corrected.
A WARNING
- If the ti re pressure indicator appears in the
display, reduce your speed immediately and
avoid any hard steering or braking maneu­
vers. Stop as soon as possible and check the
t ir es and their pressure .
- The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressure. You must check the
t ir e pressure regularly.
- Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
dr iv ing style, winter cond itions or unpaved
roads), the tire pressure mon itoring system
indicator may be delayed.
- Do not use run-flat tires on your vehicle. Us­
ing them when not permitted can lead to
vehicle damage or accidents.

(D Tips
-The tire pressure monitoring system can al­
so stop working when there is an ESC mal­
function.
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
- The tires with the identification "AO" or
"RO" ¢
page 2 38 have been matched with
your Audi tire pressure monitoring system.
We recommend that you use these tires.
Storing tire pressures
If the tire pressure changes or a tire is replaced,
it mus t be confirmed in the Infotainmen t sys­
tem.
... Make sure before storing that the tire pressures
of all four tires meet the specified values and
are adapted to the load ¢
page 241.
... Switch the ignition on .
... Select: the
I CARI function button > (Car)* Sys­
tems
contro l button > Servicing & checks >
Tire pressure monitoring > Store tire pressures
> Yes, store now.
(D Tips
Do not sto re the tire pressures if snow chains
a re installed.
