Audi recommends changing your 2023 RS3’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Audi RS3. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
