Driver information system
The following information is continuously evalu­
ated by the trip computer and can be displayed
sequent ially in the instrument cluster display:
Fuel range
The estimat ed cruising range in miles (km) ap­
pears in the disp lay. Thi s tells you how far your
vehicle wi ll be able to t ravel on the current tank
of fuel and with the same driving style. The dis­
play changes in increments of 5 miles (10 km) .
Average fuel mileage
The average f uel economy in MPG (l/100 km)
since you last cleared the memory appears in this
display . You can use this display to adjust your
driving technique to achieve a desired mileage.
Current fuel mileage
The instantaneo us fue l cons umption in miles per
ga llon (l/100 km) is shown in this display. You
can use th is disp lay to adjust your driv ing techn i­
que to achieve a desired mi leage.
Fuel consumption is recalculated at intervals of
33 ya rds (30 meters).
Average speed
The average speed in mph (km/h) since the last
time the display was reset appears in the disp lay.
Elapsed time
The length of time that you have been driving
since you last reset the memory appears in this
disp lay.
Distance
The distance that has been covered since the last
time the memory was cleared appears in the dis­
play.
@ Tips
- Fuel consumptions (average and current),
range and speed are displayed in metric
units on Canadian models.
- All stored val ues w ill be lost if the vehicle
battery is disconnected.

Memories
The trip computer is equipped with two fully au­
tomatic memories as well as an efficiency pro­
gram*.
Fig. 15 Trip computer d isplay: memory level 1
You can switch between the trip computer 1 and
2 and the efficiency program * by pressing the
IRESET I button@<=>page 21, fig. 16 .
You can tell which memory level is currently ac­
tive by the number or the sign in the display
c> fig. 15. The data from the single-trip memory
(memory level 1) is being d isplayed if a
D ap­
pears in the display. If a
fJ is shown, then the da­
ta from the total-trip memory is being d isplayed
(memory level 2). The fuel pump nozzle
ii1 indi­
cates the efficiency program* <::;>
page 22.
Single-trip memory (Trip computer 1)
The single-trip memory stores the trip informa­
tion from the time the ignition is turned on until
it is turned off . If the trip is continued
within 2
hours
from the time the ignition was turned off,
the new data will be included in the calculation of
the current trip information. If the trip is inter­
rupted for
more than 2 hours the memo ry is re­
set automatically .
Total-trip memory (Trip computer 2)
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-tr ip
memory is not reset automatically . This permits
you to eva luate your dr iv ing data for the enti re
period between manua l resets.
Efficiency program*
The eff ic iency program can help you to use less

Fuel and Refueling
Fuel
Gasoline
Applies to: vehicles with gaso line engine
Using the right fuel helps keep the environment
clean and prevents engine damage .
Fuel re co mm endati on
The fuel recommended for your vehicle is unlead­
ed pr em ium
grade gasoline. Audi recommends
using TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline with a mini­
mum octane rat ing of 91 AKI (95 RON). For more
information on TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline,
p lease go to the official website
(www.toptiergas .com) .
The recommended gasoline octane rating for
your engine can also be found on a label located
on the inside of the fuel filler flap . Th is rating
may be spec ified as AK I or RON.
Your veh icle may also be operated using unlead­
ed regular gasoline with a min imum octane rat ­
ing of
87 AKl/9 1 RON . However, using 87 AKl/91
RON octane f uel w ill slightly reduce engine pe r­
fo rmance.
Us e un lead ed g asolin e onl y. Unleaded gasoline
is available throughout t he USA, Canada, and in
most Eu ropean count ries . We recommend that
you do not ta ke your vehicle to areas or countries
where u nleaded gasol ine may not be availab le.
For more information on refueling your vehicle,
see
~ page 211.
Octane r ating
Octane rating indicates a gasoline's ability to re­
sist engine damaging "knock" caused by prema­
ture ignit ion a nd detonation . Therefore , buy ing
the co rrect grade of gasoline is very important to
h e lp p revent poss ible engine damage and a loss
of eng ine performance.
Gasoline most commonly used in the Un ited
States and Canada has the following octane rat­
ings that can usually be fo und on the filler pump:
- Premium Grade: 91 -96 AKI
Fuel and R efueling
- Reg ular G rade: 87 -90 AK I
E xplanation of the abb reviations:
AK I=
Anti Knock Index = (R +M)/2 = (RON +MON)/
2
RON = Research Octane Number
MON = Motor Octane Number .
(D Note
-Do not use a ny fue l w it h octane ratings low­
er than 8 7 AKI or 91 RON ot herwise expen­
sive engine damage w ill occur .
- Do
not use leaded gasoli ne. The use of lead­
ed gasoline will severe ly damage your vehi­
cle's catalyt ic converter and its ability to
cont rol exhaust emissions .
Blended gasoline
Applies to: vehicles with gasoline engine
Use of gasoline containing alcohol or MTBE
(methyl tertiary butyl ether )
You may use unleaded gasoline blended with al­
cohol or MTB E (commonly referred to as oxygen ­
ates) if the blended m ixture meets the follow ing
c riteria:
Blend o f gasoline methanol ( wood alcohol or
methyl alcoho l)
-Anti -knock index must be 87 AKI or h igher.
- Blend must contain no more than 3% metha-
nol.
- Blend must contain more than 2% co -solvents.
Blend of gasoline and ethanol (grain alcoh ol or
ethyl alcohol)
- Anti-knock index must be 87 AKI or higher .
- Blend must not conta in more than 15% etha-
nol.
- Veh icles with flex ible fue l* engine: blend must
not contain more tha n 85% ethanol.
Blend of gasoline and MTBE
- Anti-knoc k index mus t be 87 A KI or h igher.
- Blend must contain no t mo re than 15% MTBE.

Gasoline additives
Applies to: vehicles with gasoline engine
A major concern among many auto manufactur­
ers is carbon deposit build-up caused by the type
of gasoline you use.
Although gasoline grades differ from one manu­
facturer to another, they have certain things in
common. All gasoline grades contain substances
that can cause deposits to collect on vital engine parts, such as fuel injectors and intake valves . Al ­
though most gasolin e brands include additives to
keep engine and fuel systems clean, they are not
equally effe ctive.
Audi recommends using TOP TIER Detergent Gas­
oline. For more information on TOP TIER Deter­
gent Gasoline , please go to the official website
(www.toptiergas.com).
After an extended period of using inadequate
fuels, built-up carbon depos its can rob your en­
gine of peak performance.
CD Note
- Damage or malfunction due to poor fuel
quality is not covered by the Audi New Vehi­
cle Limited Warranty .
- Do not add aftermarket fuel additive prod­
ucts to your fuel tank.
Diesel fuel
Applies to: veh icles with diesel eng ine
Always use ULSD (Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel) No. 2.
The ULSD No . 2 meets the ASTM 0975.
Diesel fuel with concentrations of biodiesel high­
er than S % such as 811,820 or 8100 are strictly prohibited.
Service station fuel pumps are labeled with the
correct fuel information for easy recognition by
the user. If the diesel fuel pump is not labeled
ask the station operator what fuel is being dis­
pensed before filling up your vehicle .
ULSD No . 2 may not be available outside the USA
and Canada. Be sure to check before traveling to
other countries.
Fuel and Refueling
ULSD No. 2 can become thicker in very cold tem­
peratures, and this can impair the engine 's start­
ing and running. Depending on the season, gas
stations provide ULSD No.
2 that flows better in
cold temperatures so tha t you can continue oper­
ating your vehicle as usual.
CD Note
- Your vehicle's diesel engine was designed
soley for use with ULSD No.
2. Therefore,
never use gasoline, heating oil, other fuels
or flow improvers . These contain substances
that will severely damage the fuel system
and the engine. Such damage will not be
covered by your New Vehicle Limited War­
ranty.
- If you put any amount of incorrect fuel in
the fuel tank, do not start the engine under
any circumstances. Immediately contact the
nearest authorized Audi dealer or author­
ized Audi Service Facility for assistance.
These fuels contain substances that can se­
verely damage the fuel system and the en­ gine if the engine is started .
Refueling
Fuel filler neck
The fuel filler neck is located on the right rear
side panel behind the fuel filler flap.
If the power locking system should fail, you can
still open the flap manually -for detailed instruc­
tions see
¢ page 213.
You can find the fuel tank capacity of your vehicle
in
¢ page 273.
The label on the inside of the fuel filler flap tells
you the correct fuel for your vehicle. For more in­
format ion about fuel specificat ions, see
¢ page 209.
Your vehicle fuel tank has an on-board refuelling
vapor recovery system. This feature helps to pre­
vent fuel vapors from escaping from the tank and polluting the environment while you refuel your
vehicle. In order to fill the tank properly while
protecting the environment, please follow this
refueling procedure carefully.

Fuel and R efue li ng
_& WARNING
Under normal operating conditions, never car ­
ry additional fuel containers in you r car. Gas
canisters and other containers used to trans­
port fuel can be dangerous . Such containers,
full or empty, may leak and could cause a fire
in a collision. If you must transport fuel to
use for your lawn mower, snow blower, etc.,
be very careful and a lways observe local and
state laws regarding the use, transportation
and sto rage of such fue l conta iners. Make cer­
tain the container meets industry standards (ANSI/ASTM F852 -86) .
(D Note
Never drive you r vehicle unt il the fuel tank is
comp letely empty. The irregular supply of
fue l can cause m isfiring. Gasoline cou ld enter
the exhaust system and damage the catalytic
converter.

it
¢ fig. 189 -ar row-.
.. Unscrew fuel cap counter-clockwise and hang it
on the fuel filler flap¢
fig. 190 .
.. Check the label on the inside of the fuel filler
flap to determine if the vehicle must be fueled
w ith gasoline or diesel fuel.
Refuelling procedur e
.. Insert the fuel nozzle from the gasoline pump
into the fuel filler neck as far as it will go.
.. Select a medium refuelling rate so that the
nozzle switches off automatically when the
tank is full.
Putting th e fu el c ap b ack o n
.. After filling your tank, twist the fuel cap clock-
wise as far as it will go.
.. Close the fuel filler flap.
To avoid fuel spilling or evaporating from the fuel
tank always close fuel cap properly and com­
plete ly. An improperly closed fuel filler cap may
also cause the MIL lamp¢
page 23 to come on
(only vehicles with gasoline engine).
_& WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel can
cause fire, explos ion and severe burns.
- Fuel is highly flammable and can cause se­
vere burns and other injuries.
-
- Fa ilure to shut the engine off while refuel­
ing and/or to insert the pump nozzle fully into the fue l filler neck could cause fuel to
spray out of fi ller neck or to overflow. Fue l
spray and ove rflowing f uel can ca use a fire .
- Never use a ce llular telephone while refuel­
ing. The electromagnetic radiation can
cause sparks t hat can ignite fuel vapors and
cause a fire.
- Never get back into your vehicle whi le refu­
eling. If in exceptional circumstances you
must get back in your vehicle wh ile refuel­
ing, make certain that you close the door
and touch metal to discharge static electric-
ity before touching t he f iller nozzle again. .,_

Static electricity can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released during refueling.
- Never smoke or have an open flame any­
where in or near your vehicle when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.
- For your safety, we strongly recommend
that you do not travel with a portable fuel
container in your vehicle. The container, full
or empty may leak and could cause a fire,
especially in a crash.
- If, under exceptional circumstances, you
must transport a portable fuel container,
please observe the follow ing :
- Never fill a portable fuel container while it
is anywhere in or on the vehicle (for exam­
ple, in the luggage compartment, or on
the trunk) . Static electricity can build up
while filling and can ignite fuel vapors causing a fire .
- Always p lace a portable fuel container on
the ground before filling.
- Always keep the filler nozzle completely
ins ide the portable container before and
during filling.
- If filling a portable container made of
metal, the filler nozzle must always be in
contact with the container . This will help
prevent static electric ity from discharg ing
and cause a fire .
- Never spill fuel inside the vehicle or lug­
gage compartment . Fuel vapors are h ighly
flammab le.
-Always observe local and state/provincial
laws regarding the use, storage and trans­
portation of fuel containers.
- Make certa in the fuel co nta iner meets in­
dustry standards (ANSI/ ASTM F852 -86) .
(D Note
If any fuel has spilled onto the car, it should
be removed immediately to prevent damage
to the paint .
@ For the sake of the environment
As soon as the correctly operated nozzle sw itches off automatically for the first time,
the tank is full. Do not try to add more fuel
Fuel and Refueling
because fuel may spill out. In addition, the
expansion space in the fuel tank will be filled -
causing the fue l to overflow when it becomes
warm and pollute the environment.
@ Tips
- Running your engine while refuelling may
cause vapors to escape or even cause fuel to
spill out of the tank. This would then shut
off the fuel nozzle before the tank is full.
- Do not refuel your vehicle with the ignition
turned on. The fuel gauge may otherwise not indicate the correct fuel level after refu­
elling .
- Diesel vehicles* are equipped with a diesel
m isfueling protector . It allows the vehicle
to be fueled only with a diesel fuel pump
nozzle. A worn or damaged nozzle or a noz­
zle that is too small may not be able to open
the diesel misfueling protector.
If this is the
case, try turning the nozzle before inserting
it in the fuel filler neck, use a different fuel
pump or see your authorized Audi dealer or
authorized repair facility for assistance.
- The fuel filler flap of your vehicle is not
locked when you lock the vehicle from the
inside.
Unlocking the fuel filler flap
by hand
You can open the fuel filler flap by hand if the
power locking system should fail.
