¢page 237, fig. 181.
-Carefully add 0.5 quart (0.S liter) of the correct
oil ¢
page 23 7.
- Check the oil level again after two minutes .
- Add a smaller amount of engine oil if necessa-
ry . The marking @¢ fig . 182 must not be ex­
ceeded ¢Cl) :
- Screw the eng ine oil filler cap~ and slide the
dipstick all the way in.
,&. WARNING
i=
- When adding eng ine oi l, do not let oil drip
onto hot engine components. This increases
the risk of a fire.
- You must seal the cap on the oil filler open­
ing correctly so that oil does not leak out
onto the hot engine and exhaust system
when the engine is running, because this is
a fire hazard.
-Always clean skin thoroughly if it comes into
contact with eng ine oil.
(D Note
- The engine oil level must not be under the
ma rking
(D ¢ fig. 182, because th is increas­
es the risk of engine damage .
- After adding engine oil, the oil level must
not be above the marking @c>
fig. 182, be­
cause this increases the risk of catalytic con ­
verter and/or engine damage. Do not start the engine. Contact an authorized Audi
dea ler or authorized Audi Service Facility to
have excess engine oil extracted if necessa­
ry.
- Do not mix any additional lubricants into
the engine oil. Damage caused by such addi-
tives is not covered by the warranty. .,.

Checking and Filling
@ For the sake of the environment
-Engine oil should never enter the sewer sys­
tem or come into contact with the ground
under any circumstances.
- Pay attention to legal requirements when
disposing of empty oil containers.
(D Tips
The engine oil consumption may be up to 0.5 quart/600 miles (0.5 liter/1,000 km), de­
pending on driving style and operating condi­
tions. Consumption may be higher during the
first 3,000 miles (5,000 km). Because of this,
the engine oil level must be checked regular­
ly .
It would be best to check each time you re­
fuel your vehicle and before long drives.
Changing the engine oil
We recommend that have your oil changed by an
authorized Audi dealer or a qualified service sta­
tion.
Before you check anything in the engine compart­
ment, always read and heed all WARNINGS
q .&.
in Working in the engine compartment on
page 235.
The engine oil must be changed according to the
intervals specified in your Warranty
& Mainte­
nance booklet. This is very important because the
lubricating properties of oil diminish gradually
during normal vehicle use.
Under some circumstances the engine oil should
be changed more frequently . Change oil more of­
ten if you drive mostly short distances, operate
the vehicle in dusty areas or under predominantly
stop-and-go traffic conditions, or have your vehi­
cle where temperatures remain below freezing
for extended periods.
Detergent additives in the oil will make fresh oil
look dark after the engine has been running for a
short time. This is normal and is not a reason to
change the oil more often than recommended.
Because of the problem of proper disposal, along
with the special tools and necessary expertise re­
quired, we strongly recommend that you have
240
your oil changed by an authorized Audi dealer or
a qualified service station.
If you choose to change your oil yourself , please
note the following important information:
& WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury if you
must change the engine oil in your vehicle
yourself:
- Wear eye protection.
-
-To reduce the risk of burns from hot engine
oil, let the engine cool down to the touch.
- When removing the oil drain plug with your
fingers, stay as far away as possible. Always
keep your forearm parallel to the ground to
help prevent hot oil from running down your
arm.
- Drain the oil into a container designed for
this purpose, one large enough to hold at
least the total amount of oil in your engine.
- Engine oil is poisonous. Keep it well out of
the reach of children.
- Continuous contact with used engine oil is
harmful to your skin. Always protect your
skin by washing oil off thoroughly with soap
and water .
(D Note
Never mix oil additives with your engine oil.
These additives can damage your engine and adversely affect your Audi Limited New Vehi­
cle Warranty.
@I For the sake of the environment
- Before changing your oil, first make sure
you know where you can properly dispose of
the used oil.
- Always dispose of used engine oil properly.
Do not dump it on garden soil, wooded
areas, into open streams or down sewage
drains.
- Recycle used engine oil by taking it to a used
engine oil collection facility in your area, or
contact a service station .

Checking and Filling
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility
and have the cooling system inspected. If the
cooling system is not leaking, a loss can come
from the coolant boiling through overheating
and being pushed out of the cooling system.
A WARNING
The cooling system is pressurized and can be­
come very hot. To reduce the r isk of burns
from hot coolant:
- Do not open the coolant expansion tank cap when the eng ine is hot. This increases the
risk of burns.
- Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
- Protect your face, hands and arms from es-
caping coolant and steam by covering the
coolant tank cap with a large, thick cloth.
- Turn the coolant tank cap counterclockwise
slowly and keep light pressure o n the cap.
- To reduce the risk of burns, do not allow any
antifreeze or coolant to drip onto the ex­ haust system or hot eng ine components .
T he ethylene glycol in eng ine coolant can
catch fire under certa in circumstances.
- The coo lant add itive and the coolant can be
dange rous to your health. For this reason,
keep the coolan t in the origina l container
and away from children. There is a risk of
poisoning.
- When working in the engine compartmen t,
remember that the radiator fan can switch
on even if the ignition is switched off, which
increases the risk of inj ury.
(D Note
Do not add coolant if the exp ansion tank is
empty . Air could enter the cooling system and
damage the engine . If this is the case, do not
continue driving. See an authorized Audi deal­
er or authorized Audi Service Facility for assis­
tance.

hicle is due for service.
The service interval display works in two stages:
- Inspection or oil change reminder: after a cer-
tain distance driven, a message appears in the
Infotainment system display each time the ig­
nition is switched on or off. The remaining dis­
tance or time is displayed briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: if your vehicle
has reached an inspection or oil change interval
or both intervals at the same time, the mes­
sage
Inspection due! or Oil change due! or Oil
change and inspection duel
appears briefly af­
ter switching the ignition on/off .
Checking service intervals
You can check the remaining distance or time un­
til the next oil change or next inspection. Select

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 deflation that can
cause the vehicle to crash.
