Audi Q5 left front wheel clunking noise may be caused by the following reasons: Foreign objects on the brake disc: If there are foreign objects such as sand or mud adhered to the brake disc, friction between these objects can cause noise. Removing the foreign objects can solve the problem. Deformation of the left front tire: Frequently driving on bumpy roads or encountering potholes at high speeds can cause deformation of the front tires, leading to noise. The tire needs to be replaced. Wear on the left front tire: Excessive wear on the left front tire or punctures from nails or stones can result in noise. A check-up at a repair shop is necessary. Severe wear on the brake pads: When the brake pads are worn down to less than 6mm, the tire may produce noise. The brake pads need to be replaced.

Loosen the oil filler plug with a wrench and then remove it. Drain the oil while it is still warm. Place an oil bucket under the drain plug, loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the diesel engine, and let the used oil flow into the bucket for recycling. Clean the oil drain pan and plug with diesel to remove metal shavings or other debris, then add fresh, clean oil.

How to Identify the Cause of Engine Damage?

Open the engine compartment and observe the radiator and the front cross member. If these parts are severely deformed, it indicates that the vehicle has experienced a severe frontal collision. Check the seams between the engine fenders and the body for signs of hammering or welding, as well as the condition of the waterproof adhesive and welding spots on the engine. Finally, start the engine and listen for any abnormal noises at idle, then press the accelerator to check for any knocking sounds.

How Often Should Fully Synthetic Engine Oil Be Changed?

Fully synthetic engine oil should be changed every 10,000 to 12,000 kilometers or every six months. If the operating environment is particularly harsh—such as high levels of dust, extremely low temperatures (below -20°C), or frequent short trips (each drive under 8 kilometers)—meeting any one of these conditions, it is recommended to shorten the oil change interval to every 7,000 to 8,000 kilometers. Fully synthetic engine oil refers to a high-quality lubricant made entirely from PAO (polyalphaolefin) or synthetic esters, typically labeled as "synthetic" on the oil container.
