How Often to Change 2008 Audi Q7 Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2008 Audi Q7? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Your 2008 Q7’s oil should be changed according to Audi’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Q7 in the above table. Outside of Audi-recommended oil change intervals, your Q7 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Audi recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Audi Q7. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
