Thanks for video I have few comments here - Extract oil while engine still hot, make it flows better - Have car on slope such that front car and passenger side are lower, such that all oil summed at dipstick hole area. This is to ensure all oil is removed
Hey, Navy, nice video. I liked the oil extractor, much simpler to do when in a garage that's cold! (Side note: Your flag is hung wrong on the wall of your garage. Field of blue should always be top left from viewer's angle. USAF vet here. Thanks for your service, Brother!)
Very clear, thorough, yet simple video that only lacks showing those without an extraction pump where the drain plug is. Personally, I like to open the plug to allow the last few ml of oil to drip out. I think it’s worth the effort if one has a proper garage in which to work.
You only tighten the oil filter cap until it bottoms. Tho o-ring seals on the side. Recommend oil is Castro Syntech 5W40. Too bad he held his hand over the part number for the Mann oil filter.
Thank you for the Video this will make it easier to do my first oil change on my Audi. What is the recommended oil, I understand full synthetic but what weight? Thanks again. ( Your Voice was a little hard to hear, may be my computer)
As you can see mine was still pretty clean. The air filter will vary depending on the conditions (weather, air quality) where you live. It definitely will not hurt to change it more often. Hope this helps
I couldn't find the oil filter online . Can you help me please ? And can empty the oil from the bottom of the engine ? Which oil i have to buy which last 10.000 mile?
1. There are many oil filter options online. Try fcpeuro 2. Yes, the oil can be emptied from below and recommended by many. 3. You can go 10k between oil changes but I personally do no recommend waiting that long
How do you expect to get all the oil sludge out of the oil pan if you use the extraction method? I say that you can't get the sludge out so it will continue to stay in the engine and will therefore will continute to cause wear even though you have an oil filter in place. Mechanics say the same thing.
Oil sludge isn’t very common with newer cars with the exception of intake carbon buildup (can look like sludge) which Is caused by gasoline direct injection. Having said that all of the oil is never completely changed whether it’s from above or below, unless a complete engine oil flush is done, which is not a common maintenance item.
Every other heathen on YT jacks the car up to drain the oil like wtf guys. Oil changes should never have to be done under the car. Mityvac and the oil filter on the top of the engine. Not all VW/Audi/Porsche created equal, but I refuse to buy a car that has an oil filter anywhere other than the top of the engine.
@@andyhuang7526 Honestly it depends if your Audi is lucky enough to not have those type of issues. I had my 2018 Audi Q5 for 2 years and I always change my oil after every 6k miles. My mechanic says my car is healthy and I’m happy to hear that. Also, people cheap out on oil changes and use regular instead of fully synthetic, smh. I been using Liqui Moly Synthetic oil and it’s honestly one of the best oil in the market
I have a 2020 q5 2.0 with 20k miles. I bought the car at 10k miles dealer changed oil. Drove the vehicle 5k miles changed oil. In that 5k miles i was a qt low. I had my mechanic check for leaks...no leaks. I would say oil was consumed. The vehicle has not been driven hard.
@@eriksteffen6166 I asked one of the mechanics who works on my oil changes and he recommends changing your oil every 5k to 6k miles. Regardless if the dealership tells to change your oil every 10k, most German/ Japanese "sport" engines use more oil. Over time, your car will use more oil as your engine gets older and you would have to put 1quart of new oil every 500 or 1k miles. I'm currently at 40k miles on my Audi, but haven't dealt with any oil consumption yet. I'm starting to think that only some Audi or luxury vehicles in general have this oil consumption issue. Sometimes it depends which fully synthetic oil you use, but I can't confirm that. My girlfriend has a 100k mile Mercedes SUV and she told me that oil consumption wasn't never an issue. I wonder if half the supply of luxury cars have oil consumption issues while the other ones don't. I did some more research with Audi's burning more oil and apparently it's due to faulty/ cheap pistons. If that were the case, the mechanics would have to take out the whole engine and inspect it. Only issue is taking out your engine to check for faulty pistons can cause more damage to other engine parts. Also, I found out that if you start your car right away when the engine is cold and you inspect your oil gauge from the Audi's infotainment system, it will sometimes show that the oil is around 75%. Not sure if the oil sensor is being wonky, but if you keep turning your car on and off over periods of time throughout the day, the oil gauge would show at 100%. I'm assuming it's because your car has to heat up first for your oil to look "proper". P.S - I hope your Audi lasts forever so you don't have to worry about it too much :D. Because it's an investment

Thanks for the view and correction. Will fix 👍
@@1milgrill I assume you're a vet, too, with the tattoo and the wall hanging, brother. Figured you'd want to do it right!

Nice job, love to see detailed car maintenance done the proper way.
Looks like you went a little over that service interval lol. Good video still, tired of spending so much at the dealership 😂
Super helpful, thank you!
Do you have a transmission fluid change video? Thanks
I do not
5.5 quarts is the oil capacity.
Another reason I prefer the drain plug.
But leaving .2 qts isn't too bad for the ease!
You only tighten the oil filter cap until it bottoms. Tho o-ring seals on the side. Recommend oil is Castro Syntech 5W40. Too bad he held his hand over the part number for the Mann oil filter.
Thanks for watching and the $0.02

Hello and thank you for watching. I used 5W-40
Thanks man
Hey where can i buy that oil pump?
I got it at harbor freight
Thanks for the video. How often should you change the engine air filter? My Audi dealership didn’t mention anything and I just hit 20K miles
As you can see mine was still pretty clean. The air filter will vary depending on the conditions (weather, air quality) where you live. It definitely will not hurt to change it more often. Hope this helps
Book says 60,000 miles
Where did you get your oil extractor? What brand and model?
mike mercado thanks for watching: www.harborfreight.com/23-gallon-manual-fluid-extractor-62643.html
Thanks for the useful video
How to check the oil level after oil change? Is there any oil guage?
My oil level gauge is in the vehicle section of the infotainment system. I have a 2020 audi q5.
What is the pump you are using to extract old oil?

Awesome vid!
I’m trying to find a video for the Audi 2016 Q4 without luck, do u know if I can reset the light the same way for that model?
Research 2016 models that came with a similar sized engine as yours. Here you might find similar reset procedures
do we still need to unscrew or remove the air intake hose to change the air filter?
yes, I believe it was one screw that needed to be loosened
This engine needs 5w30 or 0w20, depending on temperatures. 5w40 is not good choice.
Hi AlPanda. Nice Video. Where did you get your vacuum pump from? Also, what model is it?
Thanks Barry.
Hi, the pump is from here: www.harborfreight.com/23-gallon-manual-fluid-extractor-62643.html
Thank you!
I scrolled down and saw where you bought it - harbor freight 👍
Hey very good video , better than some here , have you done any video on oil flush ? before changing engine oil ?
Hello, and thank you for watching. I have not done an oil flush
I couldn't find the oil filter online . Can you help me please ?
And can empty the oil from the bottom of the engine ?

2021 Q5e here. What oil filter and oil is supposed to be used, or best for this engine?
🤷♂️
Refer to your owner's manual
Can you please show me how to change headlight
Not at this time, but if I ever do, you will be the first to know 😉
@@1milgrill ok nice to hear that thank you so much . Have a nice day

2017 does not have a filter housing just the whole Unit replaces
Huh?
Where is fuel filter?
Maybe a future video?
👍🏾
Sorry, 5w40? Or 5w30 ?
The first one
how many liters of oil did you add?
I replaced it with about the same amount that was taken out
Does it not have a drain plug?
It does have a drain plug, but we don’t touch it using the extraction method
How reliable are these audi q5?
Amos Thomas pretty reliable so far
60k on mine, no problems.
@@ThaiNguyen-yp1js 130K on mine no problem
80k on a 2015 no problems
50k on mine 2016 biggest problem I had was the dealership labor cost rape 😳now i work on it myself 😊np
Anyone know that The new Audi doesn’t burn oil no more ?
Are you asking if it does or are you letting us know that it doesn't? Just asking btw
@@maitogai1995 , they all burn oil, but how much? Some burn more oil than the other !
