How to Change the Transmission Fluid in an Audi

Model: Audi Q5 MK 1, 8R - Years 2008-2017
Part: Transmission fluid

Before you start, lift your Audi to work underneath without obstruction. Begin by removing the lower transmission cover by unscrewing the bolt that secures it. Next, open the hoses to drain the internal transmission fluid, and then clean the system by connecting the appropriate machine. Once done, remove the lower oil pan, clean it, and reinstall it. At this point, the machine that cleaned the system will now insert the new fluid. When it finishes, disconnect it and close the hoses. This way, you will have successfully completed the task.
