Check ing and F illing
CJ) Note
Driving with an insufficient oil level is likely to
cause severe damage to the engine .
@ Tips
-The oil pre ssure warn ing display. i s not
an ind icato r of the oil l evel. Do not rel y on
it. In stead , che ck th e oil le vel in your e n­
gi ne a t regul ar int ervals, prefe rably e ach
t ime you re fuel , and al ways befo re go ing
on a long trip .
-If you have the impression your engine con­
sumes excessive amounts of oil, we recom­
mend that you consult an authorized Aud i
dealer to have the cause of your concern properly d iagnosed . Keep in mind that the
accurate measurement of oil consumpt ion
r equi res great ca re and may take some
time. An authorized Audi dealer has instruc­
tions about how to measure oil consump­
tion accurately.
Checking the engine oil level and adding
engine oil
The engine oil level can be checked in the Info­
t ainmen t sys tem
F ig . 268 Engin e co mpartme nt: e ngine o il fille r ope ning
c ove r
Checking th e engine oil l evel
-Park t he vehicle on a leve l surface .
- Sh ut the engine off when it is warm.

>< (X) IX)
- Switc h only the ignition back on. Wa it approxi-
mately two minutes so that the engine oil can
flow back into the oil pan.

- Select in the Infotainment system: the !MENUI
button > V ehicle > l eft control button > Se rvice
& ch ec ks > Oil level.
- Check the oil level in the Infotainment system
disp lay . Add engine oi l if the bar in the oil level
indicator is just before "min".
Adding engine oil
Fo llow the safety precautions ~ .&. in Working in
the engine compartment on page 322.
- Stop the engine and open the hood
~ page 323.
-Unscrew the cap 9=;,1 on the engine oi l filling
open ing ~
fig. 268, ~ page 324.
-Carefully add 0.5 quart (0.5 liter) of the correct
oil ~
page 324 .
-Close the eng ine oil filler opening cap.
- Close the hood, restart the ignit ion after two
m inutes and read the current o il level in the In ­
fotainment system.
&_ WARNING
- When adding oil, do not let oil dr ip onto hot
engine components. This inc reases the risk
of afire.
- You must secure the cap on the oil fi ller
open ing correctly so that oil does not leak
ou t onto the ho t engine and exhaust system
when the engine is running, beca use this is
a fire hazard .
- Always clean skin thoroughly if it comes into
contact with engine oil.
(D Note
-The engine o il level must not be under the
" min" marking, because this incre ases the
risk of engine damage.
- If the message
II Plea se redu ce oil lev el
appears, there is too much oil in the eng ine
and there is a risk of damaging the cata lytic
converter and engine. Do not start the en­
gine . Contact an authorized A udi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Fac ility to have ex­
cess engine o il extracted if necessary .
- Do not mix any addit iona l lubricants into
the engine oil. Damage caused by such add i­
t ives is not covered by the warranty.

Bead
means the part of the tire that is
made of steel wires, wrapped or
reinforced by ply cords and that is
shaped to fit the rim .
Bead separation
means a breakdown of the bond
between components in the bead.
Cord
means the strands forming the
plies in the tire.
Cold tire inflation pressure
means the tire pressure recom­
mended by the vehic le manufac­
turer for a tire of a des ignated
size that has not been driven for more than a couple of miles (kilo­
meters) at low speeds in the
three hour period before the tire pressure is measured or adj usted.
Curb weight
means the weight of a motor ve­
hicle w ith standard equipment in ­
cluding the maximum capacity of
fuel, oil, and coolant, air condi ­
tioning and additiona l weight of
op tional equipment.
E x tra load tire
means a tire des igned to operate
at higher loads and at h igher in -
336
flation pressures than t he corre­
spond ing standa rd tire. Extra load
tires may be identified as "XL",
"xl" , "EXTRA LOAD" , or "RF" on
the sidewall.
Gross A xle Weight Rating
("GAWR ")
means the load-carrying capacity
of a single axle system , measured
at the ti re-gro und interfaces.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
("GVWR")
means the max imum total loaded
weight of the vehicle .
Groove
means the space between two ad­
jacent tread ribs .
Load rating (code)
means the maximum load tha t a
tire is rated to carry for a given in­
flation pressure. You may not find
this informat ion on all ti res be­
cause it is not required by law .
Maximum load rating
means the load rating for a tire at
the maximum permissible infla­
tion p ressure for that ti re .
Maximum loaded vehicle
weight
means the sum of:

Wheels
-The tire must flex more if the tire pressure is too low or if
the vehicle speed or load are
too high . This heats the tire up
too much. This increases the
risk of an accident because it
can cause the tire to burst and
result in loss of vehicle con­
trol.
-Incorrect tire pressure in­ creases tire wear and has a
negative effect on driving and
braking behavior, which in­
creases the risk of an accident.
(D Note
Replace lost valve caps to re­
duce the risk of damage to the
tire valves.
Tire pressure table
Please note that the information
contained in the following table
was correct at the time of print­
ing, and the information is sub­
ject to change. If there are differ­
ences between this information
and the tire pressures specified
on the label on the driver's side 8-pillar, always follow the specifica­
tion on the 8-pillar label
¢ page 343, fig. 275.
344
(i} For the sake of the environment
-Tire pressure that is too low
increases fuel consumption.
-Fuel consumption may also in­
crease when driving with the
comfort tire pressure is se­
lected .
(D Tips
Audi recommends using the
tire pressure specified for a
normal load
¢ table on
page 345
or for a full load
when the vehicle is partially loaded.
Make sure that the tire designa­
tion on your tire matches the des­ ignation on the tire pressure label
and the tire pressure table.
The following table lists recom­ mended tire pressures in cold
tires according to the load and
the size of the tires installed.

&_ WARNING
Please note the important safe ­
ty precautions regarding tire
pressure¢
page 343 and load
limits¢
page 346.
Tires and vehicle load limits
There are limits to the amount of load or weight that any vehicle
and any tire can carry . A vehicle
that is overloaded will not handle
well and is more difficult to stop .
Overloading can not only lead to loss of vehicle control, but can al­
so damage important parts of the
vehicle and can lead to sudden
tire failure, including a blowout
and sudden deflat ion that can
cause the vehicle to crash.
Your safety and that of your pas­
sengers also depends on making
sure that load limits are not ex­
ceeded. Vehicle load includes ev­
erybody and everything in and on
the vehicle . These load limits a re
technically referred to as the vehi­
cle's
Gross Vehicle Weight Rat ­
ing
("GVWR") .
The "GVWR" includes the weight of the basic vehicle, all factory in­
stalled accessories, a full tan k of
fuel, oil, coolant and other fluids
3 4 6
plus maximum load. The maxi­
mum load includes the number of
passengers that the veh icle is in­
tended to carry ("seating capaci­
ty") with an assumed weight o f
150 lbs (68 kg) for each passen­
ger at a designated seat ing pos i­
tion and the total weight of any luggage in the veh icle. If you tow
a trailer, the weight of the trailer
hitch and the tongue we ight of
the loaded trailer must be includ­ ed as part of the vehicle load.
The
Gross Axle Weight Rating
("GAWR") is the maximum load
that can be applied at each of the
vehicle's two axles .
The fact that there is an upper
limit to your vehicle's Gross Vehi ­
cle Weight Rating means that the
total weight of whatever is being
carried in the vehicle (inc luding
the weight of a trailer h itch and
the tongue weight of the loaded
trailer) is limited . The more pas­
sengers in the vehicle or passen­
gers who are heavier than the
standard weights assumed mean
that less weight can be carried as luggage .

& WARNING
-
- T he act ual Gross Ax le Weight Rating at the
front and rear axles sho uld not exceed the
permissible weights, and their combination
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle We ight
Rating.
- Exceedi ng perm iss ible weight ratings can
result in vehicle damage, acc idents and per­
sonal injury .
Dimensions
Technical data
(D Note
- The vehicle capacity weig ht figures apply
when the load is d istributed evenly in the
vehicle (passengers and luggage) . When
transport ing a heavy load in the luggage
compartment, carry the load as near to the
rear axle as possible so that the vehicle's
hand ling is no t impa ired .
- Do not exceed the maximum perm iss ible
ax le loads or the maximum g ross ve hicle
we igh t. A lways remember that the vehi cle's
hand ling will be affected by the extra load.
T he refore, adjust your speed acco rd ingly.
- Always observe lo cal regulations.
