How often should the transmission fluid in an Audi Q5 be changed?

[WilliamFitz]

Audi Q5 transmission fluid is generally changed every 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers or every 2 years. It is best to replace it with Audi's original transmission fluid or German ZF transmission fluid. Transmission fluid is an oil product that keeps the gear system clean, ensuring the normal operation of the transmission and extending the life of the transmission device. How to choose transmission fluid: 1. Look at the color: Genuine fluid is black to dark green; 2. Check the viscosity: Genuine fluid sticks to the hand and is difficult to remove, and can form strands. 3. Observe the fluidity: Genuine fluid remains on the bottle for a long time without clearing; 4. Check for bubbles: Genuine fluid shows few bubbles when shaken; 5. Smell the fluid: Genuine fluid has a burnt smell. Like other components, transmission fluid also requires regular inspection and replacement to address issues before they worsen and cause other problems, which is a necessary measure for safe driving.
