Additional Notes

  • The Audi Q4, F4B (USA) brake fluid capacity is listed at 1 liter across the Q4 e-tron 35 (125 kW), Q4 e-tron 40 (150 kW), and Q4 e-tron 50 quattro (220 kW) configurations, each specifying a hydraulic brake system.
  • A 1-liter capacity figure in brake fluid servicing typically reflects a reservoir refill or fluid exchange volume rather than a full system overhaul, as hydraulic brake circuits retain fluid within sealed lines and calipers.
  • The change interval for brake fluid is set at 24 months across all three Q4 e-tron variants, applying under normal use conditions.
  • A 24-month brake fluid change interval is consistent with moisture absorption concerns, as brake fluid is hygroscopic and absorbs water over time, which lowers the boiling point and can compromise hydraulic performance.
  • The 35 (125 kW), 40 (150 kW), and 50 quattro (220 kW) variants show no variation in either brake fluid capacity or service interval despite differences in power output and drivetrain configuration.
