    I bought everything to do this myself! I’m going to do it in about two hours from now! I’ll update and let you know how it went 😅
    Audi A3 8v s line facelift and I’m done paying near 200 for an oil change haha
    Edit: just got it done lol the only thing that was hard was putting the skid plate back on since I was using a floor jack 😅
    5.2 quarts for the Quattro and bam! My babies purring 😎

    i used to work in a shop with lots of used cars to inspect and if they pass inspection or done with repairs we had to change the oil on it. when you talked about headed home for some lunch or “it’s been about 3 days” it reminded me of one of the technicians i worked with who would often take days to change the oil on his cars 😂😂 so true

    GREAT VIDEO .....HOW MUCH OIL IN THTHIS ENGINE? ... READE BELOW FOR ALL OF THE MISSING INFO" might have been a great point to make or list in your description on the first line ... since it is one of the first things you do when prepping this type of service. 1.8L TFSI (8VS57X) = 4.9L (5.2 qt.) | 2.0L TFSI (8VS58L) = 5.5L (5.8 qt.)

    I'm seeing a lot of people online using a siphon for removing the old oil and someone even mentioned that Audi recommends this method. I would especially appreciate hearing from a certified tech regarding this or anyone else with extensive car knowledge.

      Yes this is a method you can use. We have a unit designed to vacuum the oil out of the engine - it works well, does take some time to do a full change but is certainly very easy to do compared to doing it on the ground. You can hook it up to shop air or use the built-in vaccum pump. www.fcpeuro.com/products/fluid-extractor-cta-6510

    Will the oil still drain completely with a front-only jack lift of the car?

    • @fcpeuro
      @fcpeuro  Рік тому

      Yes, but in this situation only because the drain plug is to the rear and this helps to drain more oil.

      Pretty sure yes you can, the a3 s line is different than the a3 base model, both s3 and a3 carry the 2.0t engine, so don't mess that up!

    How many miles for an oil change on a ‘17 A3

    • @fcpeuro
      @fcpeuro  2 роки тому

      The factory recommends 10,000 miles. We usually recommend 5,000 miles or just slightly more, depending on the driving conditions the car sees, and how you drive.

    Do you have to have a new drain plug or can I reuse old one

    • @fcpeuro
      @fcpeuro  2 роки тому +1

      Typically the original drain plug can be re-used once or twice, but as it is fairly inexpensive and made of plastic, replacing with new on each change is recommended.
