Audi A7 cars do not have an oil dipstick; the oil level is directly displayed on the Audi A7's screen. Adding oil and checking oil level: Audi vehicles do not have an oil dipstick. The oil level can be viewed through the car's display screen by pressing the CAR button and selecting the oil level option. The conditions for checking are that the engine oil temperature must be above 60 degrees Celsius, the engine must be turned off, and after waiting for 1 minute, the ignition must be switched on to see the oil level on the display screen by pressing the CAR button. Normal oil level indication for Audi: It is best to fill the oil up to the MAX mark because the oil filter does not contain oil at this point. After the engine is started, the oil level will decrease slightly. However, it is important to note that the oil should never be filled beyond the maximum limit, as overfilling can cause the engine to burn oil or increase engine operating resistance.
I frequently operate on my Audi A7, where the oil dipstick is located at the front left of the engine bay, easily visible with its yellow-ringed pull handle once the hood is opened. I make it a habit to check the oil level 5 minutes after parking when the engine is warm—pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then read the level, ensuring the oil mark is in the middle of the scale. Its convenient location and thoughtful design make it easy to check, so don’t skip it—low oil can damage the engine. My routine is to check it monthly, paired with an oil change every 5,000 km to keep the car in top condition. Though the A7 is stylish, regular maintenance is a must. Knowing these details ensures worry-free driving.
