Audi RS7 maintenance items are as follows: Minor Maintenance: Minor maintenance refers to the routine maintenance tasks performed at the manufacturer's specified time or mileage to ensure vehicle performance. It mainly includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. Major Maintenance: Major maintenance refers to the routine maintenance performed at the manufacturer's specified time or mileage, which includes changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter. Fuel Filter: The fuel filter provides clean fuel to the engine by filtering out moisture and impurities from the gasoline. It optimizes engine performance and provides the best protection for the engine.

I've been driving an Audi RS7 for three years, and maintenance is particularly meticulous—after all, it's a performance beast. Every time I service it, I focus on four key points: The engine oil must be the manufacturer-specified full-synthetic type, changed every 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers, along with the oil filter. The braking system requires special attention—the front brake pads wear thin before 20,000 kilometers, and the brake fluid should be replaced every two years. Tires need frequent wear checks, as the rear tires wear out quickly; I rotate them every 10,000 kilometers. Additionally, the cooling system and transmission fluid must be completely replaced every 40,000 kilometers, or high temperatures could damage the engine. Oh, and during every service, I have the technician scan for error codes with a computer—with such a complex electronic system, faulty sensors are a major headache. Finally, I recommend finding a shop familiar with Audis—they know how to handle carbon fiber components and air suspension properly.

Having worked on German cars for over a decade, the RS7's maintenance boils down to three key areas: powertrain, chassis, and electronics. For the powertrain, don't skimp on oil changes—use full synthetic oil that meets VW508 certification, replace the oil filter every time, and change the air filter every 20,000 km. The chassis requires special attention to brake pads; performance cars wear them out quickly, with factory pads typically needing replacement around 40,000 km. Use high-performance tires and monitor tread depth—replace them immediately if it drops below 3 mm. Differential fluid should be changed every 40,000 km, and transmission fluid every 60,000 km. Electronic system maintenance requires a computer scan, especially for turbo pressure sensors and oxygen sensors, which are prone to errors. Coolant should be replaced every two years, and spark plugs every 40,000 km. Stick to these, and your car will perform at its best.

I drive pretty aggressively, and the RS7 is purely for fun, so I pay special attention to the powertrain maintenance. I only use Motul’s top-tier full synthetic oil, changing it every 7,000–8,000 km. Brake pads get replaced almost every other service—once, after a mountain run, they were completely worn down. Tires are a money pit; the rears need replacing before 20,000 km, but I recently switched to Michelin PS4S for better durability. The air filter gets changed frequently since poor airflow hurts acceleration. I replace spark plugs at 20,000 km—the dealership says it’s overkill, but smooth ignition at high RPM matters. Coolant levels are checked every time; a coolant hose leak once gave me a scare. The transmission fluid was changed at 40,000 km per the manual, and shifts did feel smoother afterward. I also check tire pressure weekly—2.5 bar is the sweet spot.

As a female car owner, I prioritize safety and comfort. There are five essential maintenance tasks: change the engine oil and oil filter every six months, using the original fully synthetic oil from the 4S store; inspect the brake system during every maintenance visit—once, an alert notified me that the brake pads were down to just 3mm; replace the cabin air filter every six months, as my allergic rhinitis can't tolerate dust; adjust tire pressure seasonally, 2.3 in winter and 2.5 in summer; a full electronic system scan is crucial—once, a faulty door lock sensor caused the windows to malfunction. I also make sure to have the underbody protection plate checked; last time, a rock hit it, but it was spotted in time. I recommend servicing at the 4S store for complete records and complimentary car washes, and don’t forget to have them inspect the air pump in the onboard tool kit.

My RS7 is primarily used for business, so I prioritize reliability and resale value in maintenance. I strictly follow the manual and have it serviced at the dealership: engine oil and filter are replaced every 8,000 km using genuine 0W-20 full synthetic oil; transmission fluid is changed precisely at 60,000 km; the braking system undergoes thorough inspection every 20,000 km; cabin air filters are replaced quarterly to maintain fresh interior air. Special attention is paid to battery condition, as the start-stop function is particularly taxing on it. When parked for extended periods, I adjust tire pressure to 3.0 to prevent deformation. During maintenance, suspension bushings are always checked, as rubber component aging affects ride comfort. I keep all maintenance records, which can increase resale value by 20,000-30,000 yuan when selling. I recommend purchasing manufacturer maintenance packages, which are 30% cheaper than single services.

How to Solve the Problem of Charging Less and Less in the Car?

Check whether the charging requirements are met, and check the output voltage and current of the car charger to see if it supports your digital products. Check whether the contacts of the car charger are in good contact. Some car chargers have unreasonably designed contacts, which may cause poor contact during driving. If multiple car chargers cannot be used normally in your car for charging, check whether the car fuse is faulty. You can also check the charger to see if there is any problem.
