FAQ: Audi Q7 Maintenance Tips
Q: How often should I service my Q7?
A: Audi suggests a "Flexible Service" up to every 2 years or 18,600 miles. However, because the Q7 is a heavy vehicle, we recommend an oil and filter change every 10,000 miles to protect the engine and turbos from wear.
Q: Does my engine have a cambelt or a chain?
A: Most Q7 engines, including the 3.0 TDI and 4.2 TDI, use a timing chain designed to last. However, the chain tensioners can wear over time. Our manual explains how to listen for the "rattle" that suggests it’s time for a check.
Q: How do I handle an AdBlue warning?
A: Modern diesel Q7s will refuse to start if the AdBlue runs dry. Our online manual shows you where the filler is (usually behind the fuel flap) and how to reset the dash warning after you've topped it up.
