(D Note
Driving with an insufficient oil level is likely to
cause severe damage to the engine.
@ 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 consult an authorized Audi
dealer to have the cause of your concern
properly diagnosed. Keep in mind that the
accurate measurement of oil consumption
requires great care 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 ­
tainment system
Fig. 269 Engine compa rtment: eng ine oil filler opening
cove r
Checking the engine oil level
- Park the vehicle on a level surface.
- Shut the engine off when it is warm.
0 N
-N
" 00 IX)
-Switch only the ignition back on. Wait approxi-
mately two minutes so that the engine oil can
flow back into the oil pan .
Checking and Filling
- Select in the Infotainment system: the !MENUI
button > Vehicle > left control button > Service
& checks > Oil level.
-Check the oil level in the Infotainment system
display. Add engine oil if the bar in the oil level
indicator is just before "min".
Adding engine oil Follow the safety precautions
~&. in Working in
the engine compartment on page 323.
- Stop the engine and open the hood
~page 324 .
-Unscrew the cap~ on the engine oil filling
opening
~ fig. 269, Qpage 325.
- Carefully add O .S quart (O .S liter) of the correct
oil
~ page 325.
- Close the engine oil filler opening cap.
- Close the hood, restart the ignition after two
minutes and read the current oil level in the In ­
fotainment system.
A WARNING ...__ --When adding oil, do not let oil drip onto hot
engine components. This increases the risk
of afire.
-You must secure the cap on the oil filler
opening 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 engine oil.
0 Note
- The engine oil level must not be under the
"min" marking, because this increases the
risk of engine damage.
- If the message II Please reduce oil level
appears, there is too much oil in the engine
and there is a risk of damaging the catalytic
converter and engine. Do not start the en­
gine. Contact an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility to have ex­
cess engine oil extracted if necessary.
- Do not mix any additional lubricants into
the engine oil. Damage caused by such addi-
tives is not covered by the warranty.
