Additional Notes

  • The cooling system capacity for both the front-wheel-drive and quattro variants of the Audi Q3 2.0 TFSI (147 kW), 8UG is 10 liters, covering model years 2014-2018.
  • A 10-liter cooling system capacity is a relatively substantial volume, consistent with a pressurized closed-loop system that includes the engine block, cylinder head, heater core, and expansion reservoir as part of the total fill.
  • The check interval for the cooling system is set at 20,000 miles or 24 months under normal use conditions, meaning the interval applies to standard driving environments rather than elevated-stress or high-temperature operating scenarios.
  • The 2.0 TFSI (147 kW) drivetrain configuration, whether in front-wheel-drive or quattro form, shares an identical 10-liter capacity and 20,000-mile/24-month check interval, indicating no variation in cooling system specification between the two drivetrain layouts for the 8UG body style across 2014-2018.
