Repair and car operation

At purchase of mineral oil the main role is played by two criteria. At oil should be:

1. The necessary specification of oil. Seldom, when the label on packing does not represent the facts, as firms on oil manufacture carry out the mutual control.
2. The necessary viscosity of oil. It depends on primary external temperature and can be is taken from the schedule above.

Additives for engine oil

In engine oil additives should not be added. The damages arising because of these means, are excluded from warranty service is opinion Audi concerning additives in oils. There is disputable an interrelation of the raised expenses for additives for oil and corresponding prolongation of service of the engine – especially in case of application of high-quality oils.

With what periodicity it is necessary to change oil?

Audi orders oil replacement through each 15 000 km of run or annually.

We believe that the one who goes on the big distances, should consider 15 000 km as the top border. But, on the other hand, the one who goes basically on short distances, should change contents картера much earlier. During cold time not later, than in six months, irrespective of probable small run. At movement it will be enough exclusive in city conditions for oil four months.

Oil replacement, where and as

• Oil needs to be changed at разогретом the engine that at its plum the accumulated dirt has flown down also.
• In increasing comprehension of necessity of protection of environment of a consequence from the got fulfilled oil in ground waters with corresponding danger to potable water now are known for all. Recycling of the fulfilled oil merged at replacement thanks to the law on liquidation of a waste is simple: it is free of charge possible to hand over it there where it has been bought. Trade is obliged to accept him back, only as the proof of purchase you should show the corresponding receipt. Even easier if you replace oil at a gasoline station then you do not need to be engaged in the fulfilled oil, it for certain will get to the tank with the fulfilled oil.
  
  

  Important! Do not mix the fulfilled oil with other liquids!

  
  
• In workshops, by our experience, oil replacement costs most expensively as there in a stock there are only very expensive oils. Besides, the engine already cools down by then when oil merges. And workshops raise, at least, an additional payment for work on replacement of the oil filter.
  
• At gasoline stations more often the turn of the car approaches at once. You can choose cheaper oil from the program of sale of gasoline stations, and oil cost includes work of the technician of station.
• Against replacement of oil SB by means of the sucking away adaptation of objections is not present provided that after each 15 000 km of run the oil filter varies. It can be made from above.
• Oil replacement in house conditions is justified only under condition of oil acquisition under the favorable price in shops of the accompanying goods, supermarkets, department store or bought on a filling station. At a gasoline station you can ask about presence hardly cheaper mineral oils or oils SB.
