Checking and Filling
-If you a re unable to determine whether or
not a particular fuel blend meets the speci
fications, ask your service station or its fuel
supplier.
- Do not use fuel for which the contents can
not be identified.
- Fuel system damage and performance prob
lems resulting from the use of fuels differ
ent from those specified a re not the respon
sibility of Audi and are not covered under
the New Vehicle or the Emission Control System Warranties.
- If you experience a loss of fuel economy or
driveability and performance problems due
to the use of one of these fuel blends , we
recommend that you switch to unblended
fuel.
Gasoline additives
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 engin e
parts, such as fuel injectors and intake valves. Al
though most gasoline brands include additives to keep engine and fuel systems clean, they are not
equally effective .
Audi recommends using TOP TI ER Dete rgent Gas
oline. For more information on TOP TIER Deter
gent Gasoline , please go to the official website
(www .toptiergas .com) .
After an extended per iod of us ing inadequate
fuels, carbon deposit build-ups can rob your
en
gine of peak performance.

Damage or malfunction due to poor fuel qual
ity is not covered by the Audi New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
