Additional Notes

  • The Audi Q5 FY (EU) manual transaxle holds 1.8 liters of fluid across all listed diesel configurations, a figure that represents a service fill rather than a full overhaul capacity, as transaxle overhaul fills typically account for fluid retained in internal passages and components.
  • The 1.8-liter capacity applies uniformly to the 2.0 TDI variants at 100 kW, 110 kW, and 120 kW outputs for the 2017-2018 model years, indicating no variation in transaxle fluid volume despite differences in engine power output.
  • The 2.0 TDI 120 kW configuration spans 2017-2019, making it the only variant among the 2.0 TDI designations to carry the same 1.8-liter manual transaxle capacity across three consecutive model years within the listed range.
  • From 2019, the Q5 30 TDI (100 kW) and Q5 35 TDI (120 kW) adopt revised commercial designations while retaining the same 1.8-liter manual transaxle capacity as the earlier 2.0 TDI variants at equivalent power outputs.
  • All five configurations specify normal use conditions, meaning the 1.8-liter fill figure is associated with standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles, which in transmission service contexts typically involve elevated temperatures, frequent towing, or extended low-speed operation.
  • The transaxle designation across all rows indicates a combined transmission and axle assembly, which is a layout common in front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive vehicles where the differential is integrated into the same housing as the gearbox, sharing the same fluid volume.
