How to Change Oil in 2015+ Audi A3/TT & VW Golf 2.0T FSI | Sons of Speed

[@TheDanibus]

Thanks for the awesome video! You made it seem so easy. So I bought an oil extractor and changed my own oil! DIY goodness ❤️

[@SonsofSpeed]

Awesome, happy to help!

[@ToaiVoUSA]

Thanks for video. It is very educational. Didn't know you can do the oil extraction and it works. It is a lot of work to clean up at the end. I ended up use the old fashion way by draining the oil using this tool DorMan Oil Drain plug Removal tool (49822). It is the same one i found on Amazon "VAG Plastic Oil Drain Plug Screw Removal Installer Wrench Assembly Tool Wrench Tool OEM T10549" and "5 Pack Oil Drain Plug 06L103801 for Audi A3 VW.

Could you show how to change the oil filter on a 2017 2.0 tdi sportback A3

[@TheRebuilt1]

Great video and thanks for posting. I know this engine is in a lot VW/AUDI parts. I didnt realize how laborous this use using tradition method of putting car on lift. I notice these engines burn a bit of oil if you change in 10k intervals. Thanks again for posting.

[@SonsofSpeed]

Our pleasure, thank you for your comment!

[@DavidTalksCarRentals]

Quick question I just got an Audi A3 2016 I wanna know what type of tool or socket is required to take out the oil from the bottom ?

[@grumbholt]

you need this tool, you can't extract the oil from the bottom, you need to do it from the top with this Oil Extractor in this video. He has links in the description

[@Steve-tf1wv]

@@grumbholt This isn't true. You need to remove a plastic air dam, so it is kind of annoying, but it's still very possible (and maybe preferred to get all the little buts out) to drain from a drain plug under the engine.

Great video, I feel like I can change my own oil now. Thank you.

[@SonsofSpeed]

Glad to have helped, thank you!

[@gino3415]

thank you can you drain engine oil underneath the car audi3 2015 tfsi

[@braxtonmay391]

yes you can but it requires a certain tool for removing the plastic drain plug

[@garymathe9863]

@@braxtonmay391 That tool is a flat head screwdriver. I know they make a specific removal tool but it's absolutely NOT necessary. Of course you have to jack up the car (I just use ramps) and remove the belly pan which is held on by a bunch of screws.

[@braxtonmay391]

Hi great video. First time I've heard of or seen an oil extractor. Just wondering if you sped up the video because I only saw you place two liters and a bit in? Also, will this be the same procedure for a 2018 Audi A3? Thanks!

[@SonsofSpeed]

Thank you! We did edit for time but nothing was sped up.

[@robertwymer2919]

Soooo I only got 4.5 quarts out. I sucked all of it out I could even sitting there pumping for like 5 minutes after it started to sound like a drain. Kinda worried, is it normal to miss oil like that?

[@kawilifezx10r23]

Audis run hot some of the older models burned oil slowly its common but to varying degrees. Id your that worried next oil change just drop the skid plate and take out the drain bolt.

[@SonsofSpeed]

It’s not uncommon for Audi engines to consume oil. To be safe, you should check the oil on refill with a quart to go and keep checking every 1/4 quart or so to make sure you don’t overfill. If this continues to be an issue, just check your oil every month or 1,000 miles to keep a closer eye on consumption.

[@garymathe9863]

Not to be a pain, but do you have the 2.0 or 1.8 engine?

[@MartinAston00]

You should get the 0W-40 Castrol ... The 5W-40 does say it’s ok for the 502.. but why would they make a different one if the 5W was just as use specific? ..and they’re same price

[@bohmkhize3512]

I have an Audi A3 Sedan 1.4T FSi SE Stronic 2014 model.. is this oil change procedure the same..?

[@SonsofSpeed]

We believe that 1.4L engine has the filter down below. We actually have a VW Jetta 1.4L oil change video coming very soon, and since VW and Audi use the same engines, the procedure there should apply to yours as well.

[@katierossi1689]

Thanks. About to change my cars oil for the first time 😁

[@katierossi1689]

Never mind. Do I really beed an oil extractor I can’t just do it the old fashioned way??

[@SonsofSpeed]

@@katierossi1689 it becomes a lot more difficult to drain the oil from below as you have to remove the belly pan first, and you may need to buy a new drain plug and crush washer. That’s why the dealer extracts the oil from above - they’d rather not bother with all that. Audi actually designs the engine to change the oil from above. That’s why everything you need is up there. An extractor is a good investment for any garage, too.

[@the2120company]

interesting suction method

[@ElPinche97]

Can it still be drained from the bottom though??

[@SonsofSpeed]

Yes, but you have to remove the belly pan.

[@jeffreyrice8319]

What size tubing is the extraction hose?

Hey! How much liters of oil do I need?

[@SonsofSpeed]

Thanks for the question! 5.8 quarts is approximately 5.5 liters.

Thank god. I thought I’d have to get my oil changed by someone’s hands other than my own. And we don’t want that.

[@BlowingbytheOz]

This is easier than my Honda

[@murdz19]

Is the process the same for the 2015 A3 TDI?

[@SonsofSpeed]

The process should work just fine on the TDI, although you will want to make sure the filter and oil you use are specific for that engine.

[@AhmadAli-du2fq]

Sorry new to vw group, does this oil meet the vw specs of 504.00?

[@ChumpusRex]

No. Castrol edge 5w40 is a 502.00 oil. If you intend to follow a flexible service interval for this engine, the correct oil is Castrol Edge 5w30 LL which is a 504.00

[@AhmadAli-du2fq]

Thanks for the info!!

[@pocketrocket1237]

I think i'll stick to the old fashion way by draining the oil from underneath. That way you know 100% of the old oil and any crud has been removed.

[@pocketrocket1237]

@Daniel Villegas yes there is lol

[@jamesonnorth]

@Daniel Villegas We have an A3 as well and it does. It's a plastic plug that is a consumable part.
