If the indicator light turns on, the steering wheel
may be more difficult to move or more sensitive
than usual. The steering wheel may also be at an
angle when driving straight.
Drive slowly to an authorized Audi dealer or au-
thorized Audi Service Facility to have the mal-
function corrected.
@ Tips
If the . or '~ij indicator light only stays on
for a short time, you may continue driving.
ALL wheel drive (quattro)
In all wheel drive, all four wheels ore powered.
General information
In all wheel drive, the driving power is divided be-
tween all four wheels . This happens automa tical-
ly depending on your driving behavior as well as
the current road conditions. c::> page 87 , Electron-
ic
stabilization control (ESC).
The all wheel drive concept is designed for high
engine power. Your vehicle is exceptionally pow-
erful and has excellent driving characteristics
both under normal driving conditions and on
snow and ice. Always read and follow safety pre-
cautions c::> &. .
Winter tires
By using all wheel dr ive, your vehicle has good
forward motion with standard tires in winter con-
ditions. However,
in winter we recommend using
winter or all season tires on all four wheels, be-
cause this will improve the broking effect.
Snow chains
If there are snow chain laws, snow chains must
also be used on vehicles with all wheel drive
c::> page 265, Snow chains.
Replacing tires
Fo r vehicles with all wheel drive, only wheels with
the same rolling circumference should be used .
Avoid
wheels with different tread depths
c::> page 257, N ew tires or wheels.

Offroad vehicle?
Your Audi is not an offroad vehicle - there is not
enough ground clearance. F or this reason, avoid
difficult
terrain .

-Also, in vehicles with all wheel drive, adapt
your driving style to the current road and
traffic conditions. Do not let the increased
safety provided tempt you into taking risks,
because this increases the risk of an acci-
dent .
- The braking ability
of your vehicle is limited
to the traction of the wheels. In this way, it
is not different from a two wheel drive vehi-
cle.
Do not be tempted to accelerate to a
h
ig h speed when the road is slippery this in-
creases the risk of an accident.
- Note
that on wet streets, the front wheels
can "hydroplane" if driving at speeds that
are too high. Unlike front wheel drive
vehicl
es, the engine does not rev higher sud -
denly when the vehicle begins hydroplaning.
For
this reason, pay attention to the road
conditions
regard less of your speed.
Rear spoiler
The extendoble rear spoiler increases driving sta-
bility.
