When filling the engine oil either don’t reinstall the oil filter or pull the dipstick plug. It helps to displace the air in the engine and the oil will fill faster and gurgle less.

You raised the transmission up and started draining ATF side TransferCase Oil I was waiting for you to lower the transmission to make sure all of the oil got out of it. Just something I noticed.

I’ll have a video coming up on that shortly in more detail but you can also watch this and get an idea of how you can do it as well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJK9oKp7i8SlacU

[@galingeorgiev6402]

In my opinion, engine oil change correct steps are: * Take out the oil filter (first) * lift the vehicle Undo oil drain plug (drain the old oil) * Tight the drain plug Lower down the vehicle * instal new oil filter (change O ring) * Filled up with new oil (quantity as per manual) If you do not take out the oil filter before draining the oil there's about 0.7 l old oil left in the engine from the oil filter housing and lines.

[@Need4Built]

Awesome instructions. I’ll keep those in mind.

[@m4tts359]

Correct, this can happen because with no top ventilation, a vacuum can occur and fluid can stay trapped. It's best practice to crack your oil fill cap and remove the oil filter before draining for proper flow.

[@joshsheinis5968]

I am finally getting around to doing this on my SQ5 with 60k miles on it. I am looking through the repair manuals on erWin now and I only see them talk about the "front final drive" and "transfer case" I assume the front final drive is the same as the front differential but I don't see anything about the rear differential.

Congratulations on your 9 sec run!!! I have a question. When changing transmission fluid, do you have to let the transmission cool down or you can just go ahead and change it?

[@Need4Built]

I would suggest draining it while the transmission is warm, not hot, not cold. Reason for that is so you don’t burn your hands unless you’re okay with thick gloves haha, but also working around everything is better when it’s warm, not burning hot. Also the fluid will drain quicker when it’s hot or warm.

[@emacasieb]

What OBDII app/brand are you using and did you need to do anything with it for the oil change only - or is oil change as easy as going to the infotainment system and 'reset oil interval'?

Since you replaced the tranmission pan with that new one that has a filter, do you just do a drain and refill or replace the whole thing again when you do your transmission fluid service?

I would replace it again. Filter should be changed with oil just like an engine oil change.

[@monkeypolicd]

Damn you are really challenging Audi Engineers lol

[@Need4Built]

Not on purpose lol. However after speaking to Audi/Porsche tech’s and hearing their opinion’ would like an explanation to why they would they claim all of the above is lifetime when it’s not according to ZF. For example the RS5 has a service interval while the S4/S5/SQ5 with the same drivetrain, doesn’t. Concerning the 5w-40 oil, there are a ton of factors, but also there is some truth to the emissions, gas mileage, and less maintenance cost for marketing reasons. Maybe if Audi sees this video, they can reach out to me an provide answers. Also those Audi engineers never expected these cars to push 700+HP

[@winfle]

Hey, wondering why do you use G052145S2 x2 for differencials, while it needs to use G065190A2 (front) and G055190A2 (rear)?

[@Need4Built]

I have a non sport diff car. Both the rear and front diff take G052145S2. That’s the new revision of G055190A2. G055190A2 is now G052145S2. The front and rear diff (non sport diff) take the same fluid. G065190A2 is what you need for the sport diff? However I could be wrong as ALLDATA didn’t have a specific number for that sport diff fluid. It’s a white bottle with a red cap.

@@Need4Built Thank you for the explanation. I've checked by my VIN code with sport diff!

Hi! Very helpful, was searching for all the oils in one place I didnt understand why you bought the gearbox kit (which contains 9 liters of gearbox oil) and then bought another 2 liters of it separately (VAG-G060162A2) Also, do you know if sport differential somehow differs? I heard it has "a second part" where oil needs to be changed (Audi S5 F5)

[@Need4Built]

The gearbox kit from FCP only gives you 4 qt’s which is how much you need for just a flush and refill. However if you’re dropping the transmission pan you need 6 qt’s to refill. The transmission holds 9qt’s but you can only drain out so much unfortunately. Yeah the sport differential has a different fill procedure which I couldn’t find anywhere. It requires 1.3 qt’s of fluid however.

[@sergius1298]

Also 'NEVER' replace coolant. It's not part of maintenance schedule for a reason. It will outlast the life of your thermostat and water pump. So when one of those fails, coolant will be one of those things that will be replaced no matter what. PS. If one of those 2 things fails and need to be replaced - thermostat or water pump- just replace them both as It will save you over $1200 down the road. It's the same labor cost to get to that spot. So you'll just pay the price of the part to get it replaced (if you do both at the same time).

No worries. Also not diff, transfer case. The description has been changed to show the proper red top fluid and I changed mine again the next day to the red top actually. Alldata was inaccurate on that one thing it seems. Happy I caught it and updated it in the description as well as changed mine. I was told by another Audi technician that it’s not an issue but the red top is what’s actually needed. Fixed! The other weird thing is when I searched up my vin, that’s the fluid that popped up instead of the red top. Happy I caught it.

You're asking for trouble replacing fluids that the manufacturer says are lifetime. Also you're giving people bad advice, why do you think you know better than Audi?

[@thomassones50]

You do know that the actual manufacturer of the ZF transmission recommends changing the ATF fluid at 75k right?

[@Need4Built]

@@thomassones50^ this… Audi is in it for the money.

[@khaleda.7244]

Lifetime was a millennia marketing gimmick. Ppl lost good cars be cause of it.

[@jamest5149]

Service schedules are driven by lease companies and a 4 year life time, in those years the cost of servicing needs to be as low as possible that’s why there are, no more 1000 mile run in service and 2 year 20,000 mile service schedules are the norm, plus phrases like ‘life time, sealed’ units… This is NOT driven by advancements in engineering, design or materials. Manufactures and lease companies have worked together so most vehicles will last the warranty and lease periods then they just don’t care. ZF who manufacture the gearbox states a service schedule. If you don’t intend to do big miles or keep a car 5 years plus then follow what Audi, BMW, Mercedes etc say otherwise follow ZF or better still service more often.

If u have the q5 sq5 Audi service schedule manual, there it says to change stronic oil every 60k km, change the oil in haldex coupling every 60k km /4 years. And changing oil in sport differential every 60k km. Changing brake fluid every 2 years regardless of kms.
