All wheel drive (quattro)
A ppl ies to: ve hicles wit h all wheel drive
In oil wheel drive, oil four wheels ore powered.
General info rmation
I n all wheel drive, t he driving power is divided be­
tween all four wheels . This happens automatical­
ly depending on your driving behavior as well as
the current road conditions. Also see
¢ page 92.
The a ll wheel d rive concept is designed for h igh
engine powe r. Your vehicle is exceptionally pow­
erful and has excellent driving characteristics both under norma l driving conditions and on
snow and ice. Always read and fo llow safety pre­
cautions ¢.&. .
Winter t ires
By using all wheel drive, yo ur vehicle has good
forward motion with standard tires in w inter con­
ditions. However, we recommend using winter or
all season tires on
all four whee ls in the winter,
because this will improve the
broking effect.
Snow cha in s
If there are snow chain laws, snow chains must
a lso be used on vehicles with a ll wheel drive
¢ page 186, Snow chains.
Replacing t ires
F or vehicles w ith all wheel dr ive, only wheels w ith
the same ro lling circumference shou ld be used .
Avoid using tires with different tread depths
¢ page 178, New tires or wheels .
A WARNING
-Also, in vehicles with a ll wheel drive, adapt
your dr iv ing style to the current road and
traff ic conditions. Do not let the increased
safety provided tempt you into tak ing risks,
because th is increases the r is k of an acci­
dent.
- The braking ability of your veh icle is limited
to the tract ion of the wheels . In this way, it
is not diffe rent from a two whee l dr ive vehi­
cl e. Do not be tempted to accelerate to a
high speed when the road is slippe ry, be­
cause this increases the risk of an accident .
Intellig ent Technology
- Note that on wet streets, the front wheels
can "hydrop lane" if dr iv ing at speeds that
are too high . Un like front wheel drive
veh icles, the engine does not rev higher sud­
denly when the vehicle begins hydroplan ing .
For this reason, adapt yo ur speed to the
road conditions to red uce the risk of an acci­
dent.
Energy management
The starting ability is optimized
The energy management system manages the
electrical energy distribution and optimizes the
availability of electrical energy for starting the
engine.
When a vehicle with a conventiona l energy sys­
tem is not driven for a long time , the vehicle bat­
tery is drained by equipment (for example, the
immobilizer). In certa in circumstances, there
could may not be enough energy to start the en ­
gine.
Yo ur vehicle is equipped with an intel ligent ener ­
gy management system for distributing electrici­
ty . Th is sign ificantly improves the start ing ability
and increases the vehicle battery life .
The energy management system Is made up of
battery diagnosis , idling current manag em en t,
and dynamic energy manag ement .
Battery diagn osis
The battery diagnosis determines the vehicle bat­
tery charge level. The sensors determine the bat­
tery voltage, the battery current, and the battery
temperature. The current charge level and the
performance of the vehicle battery a re deter­
mined based on this.
Idling current management
The idling current management decreases the energy used while parked. With the engine
switched off, it manages the energy dis tribution
to the d ifferent e lectr ica l components. Data from
the battery d iagnosis is taken into account for
t hi s.

Wheels
and a special procedure. You must not repair or
disassemble them¢&. .
A WARNING
Wheel bolts that are tightened or repaired in­
correctly can become loose and result in loss
of vehicle control, which increases the risk of
an accident. For the correct t ightening specifi ­
cation, see ¢
page 199, After changing a
wheel .
- Always keep the wheel bolts and the
threads in the wheel hub clean and free of grease.
- Only use wheel bolts that fit the rim .
- Always have damaged rims repaired by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility . Never repair or disassemble
rims yourself, because this increases the risk
of an accident.
Winter tires
Winter tires significantly improve the vehicle's
handling when driving in winter conditions . Be­
cause of their construction (width, compound,
tread pattern), summer tires provide l ess trac­
tion on ice and snow.
.,. Use winter tires on all four wheels.
.,. Only use winter tires that are approved for your
vehicle.
.,. Please note that the maximum permitted
speed may be lower with winter tires
q .&,. . An
authori zed Audi dealer or authori zed Audi Serv­
ice Facility can inform you about the maximum
permitted speed for your tires .
.,. Check the tire pressure after install ing wheels
q page 181.
The effectiveness of winter tires is reduced great­
ly when the tread is worn down to a depth of
0 .157 in (4 mm). The characteristics of winter
tires also decrease greatly as the tire ages, re­
gardless of the remaining tread.
A WARNING
- Never drive faster than the maximum per­
mitted speed for your tires. This could cause
the tires to heat up too much. This increases
186
-
the risk of an accident because it can cause
the tire to burst.
- Always adapt your driving to the road and
traffic conditions . Drive carefully and reduce
your speed on icy or slippery roads . Even
winter tires can lose traction on black ice .
@ For the sake of the environment
Reinstall summer tires at the appropriate
time, because they provide better handling
when roads are free of snow and ice. Summer
tires cause less road noise, tire wear and fuel
consumption .
(D Tips
You can also use all season tires instead of
winter tires. Please note that in some coun­
tries where winter tires are required, only
winter tires with the~ symbol may be per­
mitted.
Snow chains
Snow chains not only improve the driving in win­
ter road conditions, but also the braking.
.,. Only install snow chains on the front wheels .
This applies also to vehicles with a ll wheel
drive* .
.,. Check and correct the seating of the snow
chains after driving a few feet, if necessary. Fol­
low the instructions from the manufacturer.
.,. Note the maximum permitted speed when driv­
ing with snow chains. Do not exceed 30 mph
(SO km/h) .
Use
fine-mesh snow chains. They must not add
more than 0.53 inch (13 .5 mm) in height, includ­
ing the chain lock.
You must remove the snow chains on roads with­
out snow. Otherwise , you could impair driving
ability and damage the tires .
Use of snow chains is only permitted with certain
rim/tire combinations due to technical reasons.
Check with an authorized Audi dealer or author­ i z ed Audi Service Facility to see if you may use
snow chains.

& WARNING
Using incorrect snow chains or insta lling snow
chains incorrectly can result in loss of vehicle
control, which increases the risk of an acc i­
dent.
(D Note
Snow chains can damage the rims/wheel cov­
ers * if the chains come into direct contact
wit h them . Remove the wheel covers * first .
Use coated snow chains.
Low aspect ratio tires
Your Aud i is factory-equipped with low aspect ra­
tio tires . These t ires have been thoroughly tested
and been se lected specifica lly for you r model for
the ir supe rb performance, road feel and handling
u nder a va riety of d riving conditions. As k yo ur au­
thor ized Audi dealer for mo re de tails.
The low aspect ratio of these t ires is indicated by
a numera l of
55 or l ess in the tire's size desig na­
tion . The numera l rep resents t he rat io of the
tire's sidewall he ight in rela tion t o its tread w idth
expressed in percen tage. Conventional t ires have
a height/w idth ratio of 60 or more .
The performan ce of low -aspect-r atio tire s is par­
ticularly sen sitiv e to impr oper infla tion pre s­
s ure . It is therefore important that low a spect
ratio tires are infl ated to the specified pressure
and that the inflation pre ssure is regularl y
checked and ma inta ined . Tire pre ssure s should
be checked at least once a month and alwa ys
before a long trip
c> page 181.
What you can do to avoid tire and rim damage
Low aspect rat io tires can be damaged more easi­
ly by impact with potholes, curbs, gul lies or
ridges on the road, pa rticularly if the tire is un­
de rinflated .
In order to minimize the occurrence of impact
damage to the t ires of your ve hicle, we recom­
mend that you observe the follow ing precau­
tions:
Wh eel s
-Always maintain recommended inflat ion pres ­
sures . Check your tire pressure every 2,000
m iles (3,000 km) and add air if necessary .
- Drive carefully on roads wit h potholes, deep
gu llies or ridges . T he impact from dr iving
through or over such obstacles can damage
your tires. Impact with a curb may a lso cause
damage to your tires.
-After any impact, immed iate ly inspect your
tires or have them inspected by the nearest au­
thorized Audi dealer . Replace a damaged tire as
soon as possible .
- Inspect your tires every 2,000 m iles (3,000 km)
for damage and wear. Damage is not a lways
easy to see . Damage can lead to loss of a ir and
unde rinflat ion, wh ic h could eventually cause
t ire fa ilu re . If yo u be lieve th at a t ire may have
been damaged, repla ce the tire as soon as pos­
sible.
- These tires may we ar mo re quickly tha n others.
- Please also remember that, while these tires
de live r responsive ha nd ling, they may ride less
comfort ably and make more noise t han other
choices .
Reduced performance in winter/cold season
conditions
All t ires are des igned for certai n pu rposes. The
l ow aspect ratio, ultra h igh performance tires
origina lly installed on your vehicle are intended
for maximum dry and wet road performance and handling. They are not suitable for co ld, snowy or
icy weather conditions. If you drive under those
c ircumstances, you should equip your vehicle
with all-season or winter tires, which offer better
t ract ion under those conditions . We suggest you
u se the recommended s now or a ll-season tires
spe cified for your veh icle, o r the ir equiva lent.
Refer to
c> page 186 for more detailed informa ­
t ion regard ing winter tires.

Wheels
- The driver is responsib le for maintaining the
correct tire pressure. You must check the
t ire pressure regu larly.
- Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
dr iv ing style, winter cond itions o r unpaved
roads), the pressure mon itor indicator may
be delayed.
- Do not use r un-flat tires on your vehicle. Us­
ing them when not permitted can lead to
vehicle damage or accidents.
@ Tips
- The t ire pressure monitoring system can al­
so stop work ing when there is an ESC mal­
funct ion.
