Additional Notes

  • The Audi TT 8N (USA) 1.8 5V T (132 kW) Coupé carries a 7-liter initial fill capacity for the automatic transaxle, a figure that reflects a full factory-level charge rather than a partial top-up volume.
  • The 3.2 quattro (184 kW) Coupé, fitted with a semi-automatic transaxle, holds a 7.2-liter initial fill, which is the largest automatic transmission fluid capacity listed across the 2002-2006 TT 8N (USA) specifications.
  • A separate 6-liter refill capacity is specified for the 3.2 quattro semi-automatic transaxle, meaning a routine fluid change does not require the same volume as the initial factory fill, since residual fluid remains in the torque converter and passages during a service drain.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 1.8 5V T automatic transaxle carries a fluid check interval of 20,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, with no fluid change interval listed for normal use.
  • A first-check-only condition applies to the 1.8 5V T automatic transaxle at 15,000 miles or 12 months, which is an earlier single inspection interval compared to the 20,000-mile normal-use check schedule.
  • The 3.2 quattro semi-automatic transaxle under normal use conditions has a fluid change interval of 40,000 miles, in addition to a check interval of 20,000 miles or 12 months.
  • Under a first-change-only condition, the 3.2 quattro semi-automatic transaxle specifies a fluid change at 35,000 miles and a check at 15,000 miles or 12 months, both of which are shorter intervals than the corresponding normal-use figures.
  • The 1.8 5V T and 3.2 quattro transmissions differ in classification, with the former designated as an automatic transaxle and the latter as a semi-automatic transaxle, a distinction that corresponds to the separate capacity and interval figures assigned to each.
