How often should the Audi A4L be serviced?
2 Answers
Audi A4L should be serviced every 10,000 kilometers or once a year. The maintenance items include: 1. Replace engine oil, oil filter, clean air filter, and check whether the generator belt and wiper blades are damaged; 2. Check whether the tire pressure is normal and whether the tires have uneven wear, bulges, or damage; 3. Check the car's brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, and ball cages for scratches; 4. Check whether all switches and lights in the car are working properly. Taking the 2020 Audi A4L as an example, it is a mid-size car with a body size of 4858mm in length, 1847mm in width, and 1439mm in height, a wheelbase of 2908mm, a minimum ground clearance of 118mm, and a body weight of 1610kg.
I've been driving an Audi A4L for five years and have always followed the maintenance schedule of every 10,000 kilometers or once a year, basically adhering to the user manual. If you drive more on mixed urban-suburban roads, such as frequently on highways or in city traffic jams, the engine oil consumption will be significantly faster than on pure highways. In that case, it's advisable to check it earlier, around every 10 months. Don't wait until the mileage exceeds the limit, as that can easily lead to increased engine carbon buildup, affecting performance or even shortening the engine's lifespan. I also make sure to check the tire pressure and lighting system every six months to prevent minor issues from turning into major problems. Using synthetic oil can better protect the engine, but the interval should still not exceed 12,000 kilometers. After all, the Audi has strong power, and proper maintenance can make it last longer and run more steadily.
