The FSM says that 5.2 is the spec. There is no mention of how much it can hold in total and no mention of checking and filling beyond if you pull the snout.

Steve there is a spring coupling, much different than an M90.

Haven't had time to research. Is it an Eaton?

AHA! Only last question left after looking at Eaton's website. V Series or Clutch, then there's a descripton for R series.

Superchargers

R Series

Awesome! Thank you. That's super exciting to know I have the latest generation of rotors. I own four sets of superchargers of previous design (left photo, Non-Audi) and per Eaton's website graphic (right, Audi) the Audi rotors have been hulked-out.
Not to mention the kewl new clutched nose drive.

Can't wait to tear this unit apart. Gotta build my vacation time back up.

FWIW there is no clutch mechanism like some Mercedes applications. There is just a spring isolator for the drive pully.

There are some exploded diagrams in the post #8 pdf file. You might find them useful.
