Additional Notes

  • The Audi TT 8J manual transaxle capacity is 2.3 liters across all three engine variants covered in the 2006-2013 specifications, applying equally to the 2.0 TFSI quattro (147 kW), the 3.2 quattro (184 kW), and the TT RS 2.5 TFSI quattro (265 kW).
  • The 2.3-liter figure is labeled as an initial fill on the 3.2 quattro (184 kW) and the TT RS 2.5 TFSI quattro (265 kW) rows, distinguishing a factory-level fill quantity from a top-up or partial service refill.
  • Under normal use conditions, the TT Coupé 2.0 TFSI quattro (147 kW) and the 3.2 quattro (184 kW) share a manual transaxle check interval of 20,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first.
  • A first-check-only interval of 15,000 miles or 12 months applies to both the 2.0 TFSI quattro (147 kW) and the 3.2 quattro (184 kW) transaxles, representing an earlier inspection point during the initial break-in period before the standard 20,000-mile schedule takes over.
  • The TT RS Coupé 2.5 TFSI quattro (265 kW) carries a longer time-based interval of 24 months rather than the 12-month window specified for the earlier 2.0 and 3.2 variants, while the mileage thresholds of 20,000 miles for normal use and 15,000 miles for the first check remain unchanged.
  • The first-check-only interval on the TT RS 2.5 TFSI quattro (265 kW) is set at 15,000 miles or 24 months, pairing the same reduced mileage trigger seen on earlier models with the extended 24-month time allowance unique to the RS specification.
