Audi A1, S1, 8X (EU) models require 1 liter of differential fluid. 1 configuration is covered.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
  • A1 2.0 TFSI quattro (188 kW) (2012-2013)
  • Rear
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1 liter

Additional Notes

  • The Audi A1 2.0 TFSI quattro (188 kW) rear differential holds 1 liter of fluid, which is a relatively small capacity consistent with compact rear differential units found in performance-oriented front-based quattro layouts.
  • The 1-liter figure represents a service fill capacity, meaning the volume required when draining and refilling the rear differential during routine maintenance rather than a full overhaul or component replacement procedure.
  • The rear differential fluid specification applies under normal use conditions, which in automotive service terminology refers to standard driving without the elevated thermal and mechanical stress associated with severe-duty classifications such as towing, track use, or extreme temperature operation.
