2008 Audi A6 Maintenance

When it comes to your Audi A6, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your A6 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 A6, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2008 Audi A6 maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Audi, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your A6 running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2008 Audi A6 problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2008 Audi A6 and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your A6's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2008 Audi A6 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your A6 stranded. Your Audi A6 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
