Additional Notes

  • The Audi A4 Allroad 2.0 TFSI (155 kW) in the 8KH body carries a 7-liter cooling system capacity, while the higher-output 2.0 TFSI (162 kW) in the 8K body holds 10 liters, a difference of 3 liters between the two engine configurations.
  • The 10-liter capacity of the 162 kW variant is notably larger for a four-cylinder turbocharged engine, which typically reflects a more extensive cooling circuit, potentially incorporating additional heat exchangers or a larger radiator assembly.
  • Both the 155 kW and 162 kW configurations share the same normal-use inspection interval of every 20,000 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first.
  • A shortened first-check interval of 15,000 miles or 24 months applies to both configurations under the "first check only" condition, after which the standard 20,000-mile schedule takes over.
  • The 24-month time limit appears across all four rows regardless of mileage accumulation, meaning a vehicle driven fewer miles still reaches a service point at the two-year mark.
  • The 155 kW engine variant is specific to the 8KH body style and covers model years 2012-2013, while the 162 kW variant in the 8K body spans 2013-2016, with 2013 being a year in which both configurations were present.
