Audi recommends having your 1987 Audi 4000 Quattro’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1987 Audi 4000 Quattro

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Audi 4000 Quattro? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Audi 4000 Quattro engine failure. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change Audi 4000 Quattro oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Audi 4000 Quattro exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Audi 4000 Quattro? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Audi 4000 Quattro oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.
  • What does it mean if my Audi 4000 Quattro oil light comes on? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Audi 4000 Quattro oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Does my 4000 Quattro's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? Every time you change the oil in your Audi 4000 Quattro, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
