How to do the complete service for an Audi E-tron

Model: Audi E Tron MK 1 - Years 2018-2023
Part: Checks and maintenance

Let's see how to perform a complete service on an electric vehicle like the Audi E-tron: it is very different from a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. We need to check the tires, which on an all-wheel-drive vehicle like this one must have the same level of wear on the same axle. A difference of more than 3mm can damage the electric differential. Another check to perform is on the brakes: this type of car uses traditional brakes less frequently (thanks to regenerative braking), and the brake discs can rust. We need to check the suspensions; shock absorbers, silent blocks, and CV joints; we should check for any coolant leaks for the batteries and electric motors: we check the coolant level for the battery and motor; electric motors have a liquid cooling circuit and have drain plugs that need to be opened to ensure there is no liquid accumulation inside the motor, from which air should escape, not liquid. We check the brake fluid, the cabin filter, the 12-volt battery, and top up the windshield washer fluid. Essentially, it involves many visual inspections and few concrete tasks.

This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
