This Head is made to help the amateur mechanic to support the car in a condition of maximum efficiency of operational parameters, profitability, safety and reliability. Further you will find the full schedule of procedures of routine maintenance of the car, and also the Sections devoted to the description of service of its separate systems in the Head. Sections included descriptions of visual checks, adjustments, replacements of components and other useful tips. Illustrations with types of a motive compartment and the bottom of the car will help to define location of separate components. Serving the car according to the kilometrazhno-time schedule and following the detailed instructions given below, you receive the accurate program of service capable to provide long and reliable service of your car. Remember that this plan is exhaustive, both implementation of its separate points and neglect by others will not give the expected result.

Current leaving

In the course of service of the car you are convinced soon of what is possible – and it is necessary – to combine many procedures in view of similarity of actions for their performance. For example, if the car is raised above the ground for chassis lubricant, it is necessary at the same time while you are under the car, to examine system of production of the fulfilled gases, a suspension bracket, system of steering and fuel system. If wheels are removed for carrying out other works, there is a sense to check brake mechanisms. And at last, suppose, that you had to lend or hire a dynamometer key. Even if it is necessary to you only to tighten spark plugs, you can check at the same time efforts of tightening of so many critical nuts and bolts on how many there will be enough time.

The first step in implementation of the program of maintenance of the car is self-preparation. Attentively study materials of all Sections relating to the forthcoming procedures then prepare all necessary materials, the equipment and tools. If you are afraid to face problems when performing any concrete works, consult at the expert or at the person who was already carrying out this work.

The service which is carried out according to the index of intervals of service on the control panel


ATTENTION

The increased interval of service (WIV) is applied to models since 2000 of release (MJ00) (cars with the Long-Life-Service system). Cars with this system can be determined by number "QG1" in the service book or by the plate with data of the car. The plate with data of the car is in a luggage carrier near a niche for a spare wheel.


At cars with the Long-Life-Service system, thanks to accurate operation and the sparing application conditions, the service interval of 15 000 km or respectively 12 months can be doubled. Thus, the maximum interval of service makes 30 000 km or 24 months, at the same time the term of approach of service is signaled according to the index of intervals of service on the dashboard. The driver approximately for 3000 km is warned by the index of" service in 3000 km" ("service through 3000 km") after each inclusion of ignition. After approach of term of the service determined by the monitor the message of "service" "service jetzt" appears ("service now"). After that, service has to be carried out immediately. At cars which during an interval of service passed less than 3000 km the specified prevention appears without preliminary signal.

Under very severe conditions of operation service at cars with the Long-Life-Service system can be carried out after 15.000 km or each 12 months.

Service surely includes replacement of oil and works accompanying it.

The cars having the characteristics given below can be equipped with the Long-Life-Service system:

1. Special ("flexibel") index of intervals of service.
2. Touch sensor of low level of motive oil.
3. Index of wear of brake shoes.
4. Motive oil of long operability of AUDI-Norm 503 00 (gasoline) or 506 00 (diesel).
5. The low-served lead-calcium rechargeable battery.
ATTENTION

At cars with the Long-Life-Service system at which the system is filled with the oil other than AUDIS-Norm 503 00 or 506 00 the index of intervals of service has to be established on 15.000 km or 12 months. It is made by dumping of the index by means of the adjusting button on the control panel.


At cars without the Long-Life-Service system it is necessary to make replacement of oil and service according to the plan of service.

Intervals of service of the car depend on time which expired from the moment of the last service, and a run.

In need of service, after inclusion of ignition and start of the engine, for one minute instead of indications of a run on the counter of a tachometer the signal of the index of service appears.

At the same time one blink or both indexes:

service OIL (replacement of oil and the accompanying works) or service INSP (inspection service).

As scale when calculating service cycles the index takes time or the passable distance from the moment of the last dumping of the index into a starting position. At the same time 1000 km or 10 days between emergence of the index and carrying out service are taken into account. Additional factors are not taken into consideration.

If service is carried out, it is necessary to drop the index of service in starting (zero) position.
ATTENTION

HUNDRED AUDIS in addition, at each service, by means of the device for poll of memory of malfunctions of V.A.G. 1551 read out data from memory of malfunctions of electronic monitors of the engine, ABS, a safety cushion and anticreeping system. It is for this purpose recommended to address through certain periods on HUNDRED. At the same time it must be kept in mind that some malfunctions, for example the failed sensors of a control system of the engine, do not lead to noticeable decrease in characteristics of the car. Monitors have the mode of emergency functioning or work at reserve parameters that cannot be revealed by the driver. Poll of memory of malfunctions is carried out via the diagnostic socket.


At the cars having or not having the Long-Life-Service system, the index of intervals of service after carrying out service or replacement of oil, it has to be dumped. If it is carried out by means of adjusting buttons on the control panel, the index is established on" nicht flexibel". In this case the usual plan of service, according to the term and the passable distance works for the car. If the index is established on" flexibel", then it has to be dumped by means of the device for reading of malfunctions or system of diagnostics of the car in conditions HUNDRED.

Dropping index of intervals of service

Control panel

1 – adjustment button
2 – run measuring instrument button
3 – index of a run

The index of intervals of service can be dropped in two various ways: in conditions HUNDRED for this purpose the device for poll of memory of malfunctions of V.A.G is used. 1551, attached to the diagnostic socket on the central console.
If the specified device is unavailable, the index can be dropped in a starting position by a key of dumping of the measuring instrument of a run and hours on the dashboard as follows:
ATTENTION

At the same time, the service index which is adjusted on "flexibel" (flexible) is established on "nicht flexibel" (not flexible).


PERFORMANCE ORDER
1. Switch off ignition, the ignition key – in zero situation.
2. Press and hold a key-2 of the counter of the passable way.
3. Include ignition. On the index of the passable way –3– the message of "service OEL" appears. Release a key-2-.
4. Extend approximately on 2 about the button of-1 hours. The message of "service OEL" is dropped by such way. Depending on date of the index the message of "service OEL" remains or three strokes appear (– – –).
5. Once again press a key-2-and release it. There is a switching to the message of "service INSP".
6. Extend approximately on 2 about the adjusting button-1-near a tachometer. The index of service is dropped. Depending on date of the index the message of "service OEL" remains or three strokes appear (– – –).
7. Switch off ignition.

ATTENTION

At shutdown of the rechargeable battery of the indication of the index remain.
