Additional Notes

  • Both the front-wheel-drive and quattro variants of the Audi Q3 2.0 TFSI (147 kW), 8UG carry an automatic transaxle fluid capacity of 7 liters, meaning the transmission and final drive share a single integrated housing filled to that volume.
  • The 7-liter capacity figure represents a service fill level, which is the amount of fluid the transaxle holds under normal operating conditions rather than a full dry or overhaul fill that would account for an empty torque converter and all passages.
  • The specified check interval for automatic transaxle fluid across the 2014-2018 Q3 2.0 TFSI lineup is every 20,000 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first, and applies under normal use conditions.
  • The identical capacity and check interval between the front-wheel-drive 8UG and the quattro 8UG indicates that the addition of all-wheel-drive hardware in the quattro configuration does not alter the automatic transaxle fluid volume or its scheduled inspection frequency.
