How to check the engine oil level of Audi A4?

Audi A4 engine oil level checking method: Press the 'car' button and select 'Maintenance', where there is an engine oil level option. It is electronically displayed. To get an accurate reading, the engine oil temperature needs to be at 60 degrees Celsius, and the vehicle must be turned off with the ignition switch on. After turning off the engine, wait for 1 minute, then turn on the ignition switch to view the oil level. To check the engine oil, you need to know how to read the oil dipstick. The engine requires oil for lubrication, but the oil level must be just right. This is where the oil dipstick comes into play. The Audi A4, manufactured by FAW-Volkswagen, was one of the first models to introduce the concept of a long wheelbase and turbocharging. The dimensions of this car are 4858 mm in length, 1847 mm in width, 1439 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2908 mm.
When I first bought my Audi A4, it took me some time to learn how to check the oil, which is quite important to avoid engine damage. The traditional method involves parking the car for about ten minutes to let it cool down, preventing burns. Then, open the hood, locate the yellow-handled dipstick, pull it out, wipe it clean with a cloth, reinsert it fully, and pull it out again to check the oil level, which should be between the minimum and maximum marks. If it's low, you need to add the appropriate oil promptly, and Audi usually recommends a specific type—don't get it wrong. Newer cars have a more convenient electronic option: start the car without turning it off, use the steering wheel buttons or the central control screen to access the vehicle settings and select the oil level function. The system will automatically measure and display the status, making it hassle-free and accurate. I check it weekly to prevent oil leaks or engine damage from low oil levels. Developing this habit can save you from costly major repairs.
