What is the first maintenance mileage for the Audi A5?
2 Answers
Audi A5's first maintenance mileage is 5,000 kilometers or three months, whichever comes first. Below is relevant information about the Audi A5: 1. Introduction: The Audi A5, available for pre-order in Europe on March 6, 2007, with the first batch of finished products expected to be delivered to users in June, is a brand-new series in the Audi family, positioned in the passionate niche market of high-end coupe cars. 2. Design Philosophy: The Audi A5 perfectly combines Audi's consistently advocated dynamic design, exciting power and handling performance, and outstanding manufacturing craftsmanship, representing a fresh interpretation of Audi's brand philosophy of 'Advancing through Technology.' In the Audi A5, many design elements from the 2003 Audi Nuvolari-quattro concept car can be seen (the Nuvolari-quattro concept car is named after one of the greatest drivers in Audi's racing history, Tagio Nuvolari, who drove the four-ring Silver Arrow race car to multiple European GP championship victories in the 1930s), offering people their first glimpse of Audi's pursuit of powerful performance, professional design, and high-performance potential sports cars—a bold step into the future.
When driving my Audi A5, I referred to the owner's manual, which clearly states that the first maintenance should be done within 10,000 kilometers or one year after purchase. This is based on Audi's test data to ensure timely engine oil changes and impurity filtration. If neglected, metal debris from the new car's break-in period may accelerate wear and cause long-term damage to the engine's lifespan. The dealership mentioned that timely maintenance also ensures warranty validity, avoiding out-of-pocket risks. It's recommended to set a mileage reminder and develop a habit of regular maintenance to enhance the car's reliability and resale value. Don't worry about over-maintenance—10,000 kilometers is the optimal balance, being both eco-friendly and economical.
