General Information

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2018 Audi S6, 2018 Audi A6 Quattro, 2018 Audi A6, 2017 Audi S6, and 2017 Audi A6 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:

Warning information for the high voltage system:

For procedures where the ignition must be switched off, refer to PROCEDURES FOR WHICH THE IGNITION NEEDS TO BE SWITCHED OFF .

NOTE:

Use only new Original VW / Audi brake fluid. Refer to the Parts information.

WARNING:
  • Brake fluid must never come into contact with fluids containing mineral oils (oil, gas, cleaning solutions). Oils containing minerals damage seals and rubber grommets on brake systems.
  • Brake fluid is poisonous. Do not let brake fluid come into contact with paintwork.
  • Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning that it absorbs moisture from the surrounding air, and must therefore always be stored in air-tight containers.
  • Rinse off any leaking brake fluid with water.
  • Do not reuse used / extracted brake fluid!
  • Follow all disposal regulations.
