Proper operation
  • Most people tend to get into the car, switch on the ignition and drive off. This is not the best way to treat your Audi’s engine, especially turbocharged engines. Switch on the car but warm up the engine for a minute or so before you engage gears and drive. Oil circulates, warms up and lubricates engine parts reducing wear and tear if you follow this practice. 
  • Likewise, when you end your drive do not simply turn off the engine. Let it idle for a minute or so to allow oil to cool down otherwise oil in the turbocharger could heat up excessively.
  • When you drive, accelerate gently and decelerate gently instead of applying brakes to stop. This practice reduces strain and enhances engine life.
  • Change gears the right way. People using turbocharged Audis tend to use turbo power to speed up but that can put a strain on the engine and reduce lifespan. Shift gears in the correct speed ranges. 
  • Use highest grade recommended engine oil for your Audi. Synthetic oil lasts longer and retains its properties at higher temperatures.

Sooner or later, despite best operational practices, your Audi will need repairs and at that time, choose Europei Motori for Audi services Melbourne. For more details contact us now!
