The center dash display must be used instead of an oil dipstick to check the oil level on the Audi A4. Prior to changing the oil in your automobile, you should make sure it has been parked and turned off for a few hours. Otherwise, you risk burning yourself on the hot oil in the automobile. Look for the oil pan in the engine area, and look underneath for the drain plug. Place a bucket underneath the plug, then take it out. As a result, the oil will be able to drip into the pan. Allow it to continue doing this for about an hour or until the dripping stops. Put the drain cap back on after it stops dripping, then look for the intake port on the top of the oil pan. Fill the oil pan completely using a funnel, being careful not to overfill it. It’s okay to go just a bit under, but going over can result in leaks and oil burnoff. Once it is filled, shut off the port, clean up any spilled oil, and you are done.
The center dash display must be used to check the oil level because the Audi A4 lacks an oil dipstick.

Are there dipsticks in new Audis?
The lack of an engine oil dipstick in your Audi Q5 is a common problem. Additionally, many other Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW cars lack dipsticks.
Your 2.0 liter engine’s dipstick tube will have a little plastic cover that clips onto the end of the tube. Oil won’t seep out of the tube thanks to an o-ring seal on the cap. After changing the oil, the oil change technician at the dealership can use a universal dipstick in this tube to check the oil level. Instead of using a general dipstick, you can buy a dipstick (Part Number 06J115611E) that should be appropriate for your Q5 for a few dollars from a number of retailers, including Amazon. Before closing the hood, make sure the handle won’t touch the hood and harm the body by removing the stopper from the dipstick tube and installing the dipstick. It should fit on your Q5 without modification, however you might need to cut or grind the handle down on some versions to allow access to the hood. Check the oil level on your new dipstick after an oil change. It ought to display accurately, but if there is a mistake, you can mark the dipstick with a file to the proper oil level and thus more easily keep track of changes in oil level.
There is a seven-pin electrical connector on my travel trailer. I was using a Dodge pickup to tow it, but it has a lot of miles on it, so I’m trying to get a new truck. Do all trucks use the same seven-pin connector, or would I need to adjust the wiring so that it is in line with the wiring on my trailer? Tom
The wire design used in all Dodge, GM, Ford, Nissan, and Toyota cars’ original factory wiring for seven-pin trailer connectors is the same and is considered industry standard. Occasionally, rather than changing the wiring connections at the trailer socket, we observe trucks with wiring that has been altered to match an improperly connected trailer. No matter which truck you hook your trailer into, if the wiring is still original from the manufacturer, everything should function as it should.
The oil stick is where?
The dipstick is typically found on the left side of the engine on most models. The dipstick often has a distinctly visible yellow or orange circular handle. A substantial piece of metal will emerge from the engine when you pull this handle.
How should my oil dipstick be checked?
Push the dipstick all the way down into the tube while carefully inserting it. Now take it out and attentively inspect the tip; it should be covered in oil. Your car has enough oil if the oil level is between the two lines. It’s time to add a quart if it’s at or below the low mark.
