Audi A3 Oil Filter
The Audi A3 Oil Filter is applied to keep the lifeblood of the engine clean to ensure that moving parts are not damaged between service periods. Its primary duty is to collect grit, carbon and metal flakes without obstructing the flow of oil so that high-quality lubricant can reach bearings during start-up as well as at high revs. To achieve this, the filter packs are densely filled with media composed of cellulose, synthetic fibers or a combination of the two and trap up to 99 percent of debris, whilst retaining the dirt in their pleats until the next change. The Audi engine of today is based on full-flow filtration supported by relief and anti-drainback valves to avoid pressure spikes and dry starting, a concept also applied in the sporty A3. Previous generations attached a spin-on canister, but more recent generations of Audi have taken a cartridge-like format. The two layouts are the same, but the cartridge eliminates waste such that only the inner Oil Filter part is replaced. Even higher-efficiency versions extend the drain time, particularly as the car computer monitors the oil life, yet even the heavy Oil Filter cannot hold that much oil, and it will be necessary to replace even the heavy one to rid it of its contamination and grease. The consequences of not replacing the Audi Oil Filter in time may be that the sludge will recirculate, depriving it of power and causing an expensive loss. The easy method of ensuring performance and long life of the engine is to regularly change the Audi Oil Filter and fresh oil.

Audi A3 Oil Filter Parts and Q&A
- Q: Why are frequent oil filter changes crucial maintenance tasks for DIY owners for Petrol engines on Audi A3?A:Oil and filter replacement often are essential activities in the maintenance of DIY owners because old engine oil could be diluted and contaminated, and thus the engine would wear out very quickly. Preparation Beforehand you will need clean rags and newspapers to deal with spills so get all the tools and materials you need ready first. Warm engine oil is preferable to work with to ensure a good drainage and sludge removal and it is good to put on gloves to avoid skin irritants contained in the used oil. It is easier to gain access to the underside of the vehicle when raised on a lift or a series of ramps or even axle stands so that the vehicle is level or the drain plug is in the lowest position. Lift off the engine undertray and top cover (where applicable) and loosen the drain plug and place a container beneath to receive the draining oil, and be careful not to spill it. Once the oil is completely emptied, remove the drain plug and apply a new sealing washer as well as screw it to the required torque. To replace the filter, place the container beneath it with the varying engine types having different places of positioning. Install an oil filter removal tool when required, discard the old filter in the container and remove the rubber sealing ring of the old filter in case it is stuck. Grease the seal ring of the new canister-type filter with clean engine oil and then install it by hand, or screw the element-type filter and cap together with a new sealing ring and then fix it tight as required. Once all the tools and old oil are cleared under the car, the engine undertray and top cover must be reattached and the proper grade and type of oil poured into the engine using a funnel to reduce spillage. Turn on the engine and ensure that there are no leaks around the oil filter seal and the sump drain plug, which can take a long time before the oil pressure warning light appears. After several minutes, re-check the level of oil on the dipstick and put more in there when needed taking care that the used engine oil is disposed safely.
