today's automobiles, have steadily reduced the
scope of maintenance and repairs which can be
carried out by vehicle owners.
Also, safety and
environmental
concerns place very strict limits
on the nature of repairs and adjustments to en
gine and transmission parts which an owner can perform .
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually re
quire special tools, testing devices and other
equipment available to specially trained work
shop personnel in order to assure proper per
formance, reliability and safety of the vehicle and
its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs
can impair the operation and reliability of your
vehicle and even void your vehicle warranty .
Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with
the maintenance schedule may be a condition for upholding a possible warranty claim made within
the warranty period.
Above all , operational safety can be adversely af
fected, creating unnecessary risks for you and
your passengers.
If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by
your authorized Audi dealer or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We strongly urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the
opportunity to perform all scheduled mainte nance and necessary repairs. Your dealer has the
facilities, original parts and trained specialists to keep your vehicle running properly .
Performing limited maintenance yourself
The following pages describe a limited number of
procedures which can be performed on your vehi
cle with ordinary tools, should the need arise and
trained personnel be unavailable. Before per
forming any of these procedures, always thor
oughly read all of the applicable text and careful ly follow the instructions given . Always rigorously
observe the
WARNINGS provided .
Before you check anything in the engine com
partment, always read and heed all WARNINGS
c::> .&. and c::> .&. in Working in the engine compart
ment on page 155. Consumer Information
A WARNING
-
Serious personal injury may occur as a result
of improperly performed maintenance, ad
justments or repairs .
- Always be extremely careful when working
on the vehicle. Always follow commonly ac
cepted safety practices and general com
mon sense. Never risk personal injury.
- Do not attempt any of the maintenance,
checks or repairs described on the following
pages if you are not fully familiar with these
or other procedures with respect to the ve
hicle, or are uncertain how to proceed.
- Do not do any work without the proper tools
and equipment. Have the necessary work
done by your authorized Audi dealer or an
other properly equipped and qualified work
shop.
- The engine compartment of any motor vehi cle is a potentially hazardous area. Never
reach into the area around or touch the radi
ator fan.
It is temperature controlled and
can switch on suddenly - even when the en
gine is off and the ignition key has been re
moved. The radiator fan switches on auto
matically when the coolant reaches a certain
temperature and will continue to run until
the coolant temperature drops.
- Always remove the ignition key before any
one gets under the vehicle.
- Always support your vehicle with safety
stands if it is necessary to work underneath
the vehicle . The jack* supplied with the vehi
cle is not adequate for this purpose and
could collapse causing serious personal in
jury.
- If you must work underneath the vehicle
with the wheels on the ground, always make
sure the vehicle is on level ground, that the
wheels are always securely blocked and that the engine cannot be started.
- Always make sure the transmission selector
lever (automatic transmission) is in P (Park
position) and the park brake is applied.
