2014 Audi A5 Quattro Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Audi A5 Quattro, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your A5 Quattro could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your A5 Quattro, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2014 Audi A5 Quattro!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Audi themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your A5 Quattro's life, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2014 Audi A5 Quattro problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2014 Audi A5 Quattro for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your A5 Quattro’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2014 Audi A5 Quattro be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Audi A5 Quattro battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty A5 Quattro) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Audi A5 Quattro could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
