How much engine oil should be added to the Audi A4 2.0T?
2 Answers
The Audi A4 2.0T requires 5 liters of engine oil. The 2.0T version of the Audi A4 is equipped with the EA888 engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. This engine has a maximum power output of 150 kW and a maximum torque of 320 Nm. Additionally, the engine features mixed injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head with an iron cylinder block. The Audi A4 is a mid-range sedan with body dimensions of 4762 mm in length, 1847 mm in width, and 1436 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2825 mm. It adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, and both the front and rear suspensions utilize a five-link independent suspension system.
I've been driving this Audi A4 2.0T for over three years and always supervise the mechanics during oil changes. It usually takes around 4.7-5.2 liters, depending on the oil drainage method. For gravity drainage, 5 liters is the safe bet; if using an oil extractor for more thorough removal, it might require up to 5.2 liters. The key is to run the engine for five minutes after the oil change, then turn it off and wait two minutes before checking the dipstick. The ideal oil level is slightly above the midpoint between the min and max marks - never exceed the max line, as it can cause engine sluggishness and damage the catalytic converter. There might be slight variations among different model years of the EA888 engine, with post-2020 versions being closer to exactly 5 liters.
