I have an 2007 A4 2.0T base. I bought the car with 120k miles on it in 02/19. Yesterday I hit the 224k miles on it. She's my daily driver, over the years I have changed/did the engine oil every 4k miles, car filters all over, wheel alignment, tires, brake pads, rotors, and the battery. Nock on the wood, my baby have been taking car of me. I'm actually surprised that this model is solid af.

Pros: model is solid af
Vehicle: Audi A4
Mileage: 360000 km

I use Pentosin Pento HP II fully synthetic Euro Spec 5w-40 oil (made by Fuchs Oil in Germany). According to test data I have read it is a much better oil than the Mobil 1 oil. I believe that the 5w-40 oil provides greater protection against oil vaporization, as the OM642 can run at elevated temperatures leading to high oil temperatures, which tends to break down the oil sooner.

Pros: better than Mobil 1, greater protection, resists vaporization

I tested it myself on my 3.0T, pumped everything out with the extractor, then jacked the car up and pulled the plug, catching evening that drained out in a measuring cup. It had less than 1/4 cup of oil left in the pan.

Pros: extractor removes most oil
Cons: small amount remains

Did this every oil change on my sq5. Made it 180k miles before trading it in. Works very well. That was the easiest oil change I’ve ever done. Of the 15 minutes the job takes, about 4 of those minutes is actually doing something

Pros: easy oil change

New Audi do not have the oil sticks to check the oil levels, so they always under pour the engin oil in the car, my q8 is been serviced by Audi and past 2 years I have to top up oil (which is free as car is under warranty) but last month I got pissed and asked them to top it up to max and car runs much smoother and fuel consumption for 1 full tank is 130 km better.

Pros: car runs smoother
Cons: have to top up
Vehicle: Audi Q8

Pros: engine runs fine
Cons: put oil in it
Vehicle: Audi A6
