Before changing the transmission oil of the new Audi A7, it is essential to check if there is any water ingress in the connector, as there have been cases of water leakage causing faults. After lifting the vehicle, you will see a metal cover on the left side of the transmission, which houses the cooling valve. Be cautious as this area may be hot; it is advisable to leave it to a professional.

As an A7 owner, I have complete confidence in Audi's quality. I particularly love the exterior design of the A7, especially the four lines on the engine cover, the dual waistline design, and the active rear spoiler, which all showcase its aggressive look. When changing the transmission oil, if you need to replace the filter and remove the oil pan, you will need to add 6 to 8 liters of transmission oil; if only the top of the transmission oil machine is replaced, about 10 liters will be needed. The mechanical transmission mainly utilizes the principle of gear reduction.

When changing the transmission oil, first lift the vehicle with a jack, then use a suitable screwdriver to remove the screws and casing of the gear box to drain the old oil. Carefully remove the transmission oil filter, at which point you can clearly see the solenoid valve used to control gear shifting. Changing the transmission oil in the Audi A7 requires careful handling.
