Maintenance
|
Service Intervals
|
Oil Change Interval:
|
Typically 7,500 to 10,000 miles (12,000 to 16,000 km) or 12 months, using synthetic oil. Refer to manual for exact intervals and oil type.
|
Timing Belt Replacement:
|
Crucial maintenance item for non-interference engines. Interval typically around 60,000 to 90,000 miles (100,000 to 140,000 km). Failure can cause severe engine damage.
|
Fluid Specifications
|
Engine Oil:
|
Refer to manual for specific API and viscosity grade (e.g., 5W-40, 0W-30 synthetic). Oil capacity varies by engine size.
|
Coolant:
|
Ethylene glycol-based coolant, typically G12 or G12+ specification (purple colored). Capacity around 7-9 liters depending on engine.
|
Brake Fluid:
|
DOT 4 brake fluid.
|
Transmission Fluid Manual:
|
API GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil, specific viscosity (e.g., 75W-90). Capacity approximately 1.8-2.2 liters.
|
Transmission Fluid Automatic:
|
Audi-approved ATF fluid (e.g., G 052 162 A2). Capacity around 3-4 liters for a drain and fill. Refer to manual for exact type and procedure.
|
Known Issues
|
Common Faults:
|
PCV valve failure (leading to oil leaks and rough idle), ignition coil failure, ABS sensor failure, coolant flange leaks, window regulator issues, and potential for timing belt failure if not replaced at intervals.
