2006 Audi A3 Oil Change - DIY

Parts Required:
Oil Filter and O Ring.

1) Make sure the car has been warmed up for 5 minutes and raise the front part of the car up with blocks or jacks.

2) Remove bolts (12) from the front bottom engine cover. The filter will be exposed.

3) Place the oil catcher under the oil filter and unscrew the 19mm oil drain bolt. By leaving the oil cap on before draining the oil will give you a slower drain. When everything is pouring nicely remove the cap from the engine.

4) After the oil is drained, unscrew the oil protective cap on the bottom and leave it aside. You can use an Audi oil filter drain tool to make less of a mess, if not, unscrew the oil filter and drain the remaining oil.

5) Replace the oil filter cartridge and the O ring. Lubricate the O ring with some oil. Screw it on hand tight with a little pressure at the end with a wrench. Do not over tightent.

6) Replace oil with 10/30 mix to full line.
