Audi recommends changing your 2021 RS5 Sportback’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your RS5 Sportback in the above table.

2021 Audi RS5 Sportback Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Audi RS5 Sportback engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your RS5 Sportback’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 oil on my own? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Audi RS5 Sportback spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Audi RS5 Sportback? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Audi RS5 Sportback oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Audi RS5 Sportback to illuminate? Your Audi RS5 Sportback oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to replace my RS5 Sportback’s oil filter when changing my oil? It's recommended that you replace your Audi RS5 Sportback oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
