Should I check my Audi Q5 PHEV motor oil level?

Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Q5 PHEV’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.

Can I change my Audi Q5 PHEV oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. 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.
