Questions About 2019 Audi A3’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Audi's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Audi tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your A3’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my A3's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Audi A3 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Audi. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Audi A3 transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Audi A3 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your A3 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
