Keep Your Audi Running Optimally with Audi-Specific Preventative Maintenance
When you own an Audi, you enjoy superior performance engineered for the quattro all-wheel-drive system. Still, you are also responsible for maintaining that excellence so you can enjoy the Audi Drive Select experience you’ve come to expect from your car. Audi-specific preventative maintenance is key for making sure that happens. Some of the services you’ll want to keep in mind include:
- Tire maintenance: Your tires are how your car communicates with the road — from smooth city roads to rough back roads. If your tiresaren’tt maintained properly, driving can be dangerous. You’ll want to check your tires’ Audi-recommended PSI and rotate the tires every 5,000 miles to keep your tire wear even using Audi-approved alignment specs. Neglecting your tires can lead to reduced grip on the road and poorer handling of your Audi and may trigger your Audi Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
- Health checks: Your Audi has onboard Audi MMI diagnostics that we can tap into to examine any potential issues your car may be having closely. These diagnostics can decode Audi fault codes to catch problems that aren’t showing any real symptoms yet, saving you the time and frustration that comes with an unexpected breakdown —all performed by Audi factory-trained technicians.
- Fluid checks: Engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and coolant are all essential to keeping your Audi functioning. Each needs to be checked at Audi-specific intervals, topped up, and occasionally flushed to remove impurities. At The German Auto Doctor, we use Audi Genuine Oil and Audi TDI-approved coolant to ensure your car is as reliable as possible.
- Brake system maintenance: Your brakes are arguably your car’s most important safety feature and should never be neglected. We can check your Audi ceramic brake pads, rotors, and Audi-compatible DOT 4 brake fluid to ensure your stopping power integrates seamlessly with your Audi ESP (Electronic Stability Program)
Audi-Specific Repairs From Certified Audi Experts
Audis aren’t just any vehicle — they are precision-engineered with Audi TFSI engines and quattro all-wheel-drive systems and require Audi VAG-COM diagnostics and specialized repair knowledge. At The German Car Doctor, our Audi factory-trained technicians use OEM Audi tools and years of experience working on Audi ECU programming. Some of the repairs we offer include:
- Engine performance issues: Audi engines should be powerful and efficient, so it’s worth looking into if yours is not. From misfires in Audi TFSI engines to loss of power from timing chain tensioner issues, to weird noises, we can diagnose Audi fault codes and resolve problems like carbon buildup in Audi direct injection systems.
- Suspension problems: Your Audi’s suspension provides a smooth ride. If you notice changes like sagging height in Audi air suspension systems, poor handling linked to quattro all-wheel-drive components, or a dip in ride quality, it may be worn Audi magnetic ride struts or shocks. We use Audi OEM suspension parts to restore factory performance.
- Electrical system malfunctions: Modern Audis rely heavily on electronics like the Audi MMI infotainment and Audi Pre Sense safety systems. Electrical issues can disrupt Audi CAN bus networks, affecting everything from engine performance to air conditioning. We use Audi ODIS diagnostic tools to diagnose faulty sensors, wiring, or Audi ECU modules.
