Approximately 109 lb-ft to 210 lb-ft, depending on specific engine variant. Manual will detail specific figures.
Injection Type:
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)
Fuel Requirement:
Unleaded gasoline
Standard Transmission Type:
Likely 5-speed manual
Optional Transmission Type:
Likely 4-speed automatic transmission (Tiptronic may be available on later models, but less likely for 1994 B5)
Drive Layout:
Front-wheel drive (FWD) standard, with optional quattro all-wheel drive (AWD)
Length Avant:
Approximately 4,517 mm (177.8 inches)
Width Avant:
Approximately 1,765 mm (69.5 inches)
Height Avant:
Approximately 1,426 mm (56.1 inches)
Curb Weight Range:
Approximately 1,300 - 1,500 kg (2,866 - 3,307 lbs), depending on engine and drivetrain
Cargo Volume Avant:
Approximately 440 liters (15.5 cubic feet) with rear seats up, expandable to over 1,100 liters (38.8 cubic feet) with rear seats folded. Specific figures will be detailed in the manual.

Early Connectivity:
Limited by modern standards; primarily focused on power windows, mirrors, and basic climate control. Manual will cover these electrical functions.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically 15,000 km (9,300 miles) or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal driving conditions. Refer to manual for severe service intervals and specific oil viscosity.
Timing Belt Replacement:
For models with timing belts (most 4-cylinder engines), replacement is typically recommended around 90,000 - 105,000 km (56,000 - 65,000 miles). V6 engines may use timing chains, requiring different service. Manual will specify for each engine.
Engine Oil Type:
