Audi Engine Maintenance Tips:

• One of the major problems most of the Audi Greensboro NC owners face is timing belt problems. The timing belt is an internal engine component that rotates the engine’s cam and crankshaft in sync and ensures fires at the appropriate time. While getting the timing belt serviced, make sure other components are also inspected.
• Find out the engine code number by using your VIN or remove the engine block cover to find it listed on driver’s side.
• Check out your water pump for leaks. If it is leaking, fix it up immediately.

Audi Brake System Maintenance Tips

• Use the VIN number to find out the brake code or remove the wheel and look at the part number on the rotor.
• Get your brake fluids changed every 30, 000 mile or 3 years. To save yourself time, hassle and cost, come down to Eurobahn and take advantage of the professional assistance.
• The brake pad warning light will let you know when you should have your front brakes or rotors replaced. Usually it is recommended to get the rotor replaced within the next 3,000 miles. For rear brakes, if you hear metal on metal sound or feel vibration while braking, it is time to replace them.

Audi Steering and Suspension Maintenance:

Check out the wheel bearing and listen for humming sound that change pitch at different speeds. The low humming sound that the wheel bearing produces indicates that there is something wrong with it.

In the hot climate, make sure the power steering fluid is flushed and changed every 30, 000 miles. Since it gets contaminated over time, it is necessary to change it to prevent damage to other components and help resolve hydraulic issues.
