OEM Audi Engine oil

I don’t drive my car enough to hit any of the reasonable mileage points. I change my oil yearly, roughly around the time it gets inspected. Might be overkill (last year the car moved 2k miles, the year before was 2.4k), but I figure the $80-85 I pay is worth it. My wife’s Q7 will be getting its oil changed every 5k miles. It’s a 3.0T supercharged and they love to eat oil, I’d probably add half the oil back just to make it to 10k.

Pros: yearly change, peace of mind
Cons: overkill for low mileage
Vehicle: Audi Q7
Mileage: 2000 km

OEM Audi Engine oil

Over here in Germany changing your oil every 3k miles in a normal A4 absolutely tanks your resale value. The only reason to do this frequent oil changes is to hide problems. Personally my car did 30 000km(~20k miles) until 91 000km and then every 15 000km(~10k miles). It's a diesel and almost all longish distance highway trips.

Pros: long intervals, good for diesel
Cons: low resale value
Vehicle: Audi A4
Mileage: 30000 km

OEM Audi Engine oil

In Canada Audi recommends oil changes ever 15,000km. I always do 10-12,000km because I do city driving. My buddy did every 25,000km on his Mercedes Benz and the thing lasted to 400,000km.

Pros: long engine life
Mileage: 10000 km
