2021 A6 Oil Change DIY help

[Eaton_S4]

So I searched and didn’t find a DIY on changing the oil in the wife’s 2021 A6 Allroad. Audi really doesn’t want you to do it yourself. No details in the owner’s manual other than take it to the dealer. Sticker under the hood at least says use 0W-20 & VW 508 00. But I have have no idea how much oil I need.

I’ve been changing oil for 35 years, so I doubt it will be that hard, but I always like to do my research first. Couldn’t find a DIY on YouTube either - at least not for a C8. Any help is appreciated.

Same. Did my own on my S6 at 1,000 miles bc I refused to wait till 10k for the first change. Take the carpeted tray off the bottom via like 12 screws and you have access to the bolt. I let it drain for about 2 hours, then filled up 7.5qts. Checked it, and it was just below half way in the ideal range on the MMI. So I added another 1/4qt and it was just above half so I left it there. The hardest part is getting to the filter between the radiator and the front of the motor. Had to finagle a bit bc my filter wrench wouldn’t fit in there. Hope that helps!
