Video Description

The video above shows you how to add oil to your 2011 Audi A6 Quattro. Before adding oil to your A6 Quattro, make sure that your engine was cold and that your car was parked on a level surface when you checked the oil level otherwise you won't be able to tell if your A6 Quattro has a low oil level. For most Audis, if your oil level is at the minimum mark on your dipstick, you should add about a quart of oil. If you are unsure how much oil to add to your A6 Quattro, add a little bit at a time and check your dipstick frequently. This video shows you where the oil fill cap is located on your A6 Quattro and how to add oil. Adding too much oil to your A6 Quattro can be harmful, so it is easiest to add a little at a time.
