Where to Find the Engine Model of Audi Q3?
2 Answers
Audi Q3's engine model is located at the rear end of the engine, near the windshield water drain channel. The Audi Q3 is equipped with a 1.4T engine and 2.0T high and low power engines, all paired with a 7-speed Stronic dual-clutch transmission. The 1.4T engine model is EA211, and the 2.0T engine model is EA888 (DBR). The Audi Q3 is an SUV based on the same PQ35 platform as the Volkswagen Tiguan, with body dimensions of 4385mm in length, 1831mm in width, and 1608mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2603mm. In terms of exterior design, the Audi Q3 features an inverted trapezoidal hexagonal grille, giving it a stronger sense of power. In terms of design details, the Q3 follows Audi's current family design, with an overall shape that does not differ much from other models in the family.
Finding the engine model of an Audi Q3 is actually quite simple. I remember doing this when I bought my first car. The most straightforward way is to pop open the hood and check the small metal plate—it's usually attached near the front coolant reservoir or on the fan bracket, easily visible once you lift the hood. If you're not keen on getting your hands dirty, the vehicle's user manual is the most comprehensive resource; just flip to the engine maintenance section for the detailed model number. A friend also mentioned that the vehicle registration certificate lists it, or you can scan the VIN code using the MyAudi app—though that's located at the lower left corner of the windshield. Either way, keeping track of the model regularly is crucial. Getting the wrong parts, like spark plugs or engine oil, can be disastrous—mismatched parts reduce engine efficiency and lead to costly repairs. Before driving, I always make it a habit to check these details. Better maintenance means a longer lifespan.
