Audi A4 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A4 B6 - Years 2000-2004
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Oil and engine filter replacement

It is advisable to raise the car on a lift. Unhook the fixing screws of the stone guard and remove it: it is possible to view the oil pan and the relative drainage plug located on the side. Using a 10mm hex wrench, loosen the cap and, after having positioned a tank of suitable capacity to contain the used oil (which must be disposed of properly), remove the cap (to allow proper emptying it is advisable to remove the filling cap of the motor oil). Once the oil has been drained, screw the cap back on (possibly also replacing the gasket) and tighten properly. Refit the stone guard. During the oil draining phase, the car should be on level ground: therefore, if a crik has been used to lift it sideways and facilitate the disassembly of the casing and the cap, it is advisable to lower it again during the emptying phase. At this point remove the engine cover by simply pulling it upwards and locate the oil filter container (which is of the cartridge type) which is located near the coolant reservoir. With a 24mm ball wrench loosen the cap and remove it together with the old cartridge. Then unhook the old cartridge from the cap, first replace the cap O-ring with a new one (always present in the new filter package) and sprinkle it with oil to improve adhesion. Apply the new cartridge to the cap and insert it into the container and screw it back tightening the cap with a torque of 25Nm. Finally, fill the engine with new oil according to SAE specifications and the quantities indicated in the vehicle's use and maintenance manual. Screw in the oil filler cap correctly, start the engine making sure that the oil pressure light goes out immediately and if necessary manually reset the service light (with the ignition off, press the reset button for partial kilometers and hold down switch on the picture for about 10 sec).
