Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Audi?

Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.

How much can my Audi tow?

Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Q7’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.

Does my Q7's transmission fluid need to be inspected?

Regularly checking and exchanging your 2008 Q7’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Audi's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.

Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Audi Q7?

Yes. Audi Q7 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
