Audi A3 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A3 8P, MK 2 - Years 2003-2013
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Disassembly and cleaning of the engine oil sump

If the engine oil pressure warning light comes on on the instrument panel display, it is possible that sludge has formed in the sump and in the relative strainer which clogs the system and therefore reduces the oil pressure; it is therefore advisable to drain the oil and proceed with the disassembly of the sump, the filter and the strainer; therefore carry out a thorough washing of the bowl, scraping off any residual dirt using a solvent or petrol, also washing the strainer grid; reassemble everything by applying mastic on the edge of the sump, install the new filter and fill the engine with new oil; run the engine without letting it start (remove the fuel pump fuse) in order to circulate the oil and lubricate everything and then start it and let it idle.
