Scheduled Maintenance for Your 1983 Audi Quattro

How often should I service my 1983 Audi Quattro?

Here’s Why 1983 Audi Quattro Scheduled Maintenance Matters

When it comes to your Audi 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 Quattro could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Quattro, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1983 Audi Quattro!

Audi knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; 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 Quattro's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1983 Audi Quattro problems in the future.

Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Quattro) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Audi Quattro won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

  • When should I have Audi Quattro alignment checked? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Audi Quattro? If your Audi Quattro has ticked past 75,000 miles, consider switching to high mileage oil at your next oil change to give your engine what it needs to go another 75,000 (or more!). High mileage oil: make it a high priority!
  •  Why are my Audi dashboard lights on? It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible. An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should. Letting problems linger can mean bad news for your Audi Quattro, so be sure to take your car in for service as soon as you notice an illuminated dashboard light
