How can I check the engine oil level in my Audi A3?

I recently purchased a 2018 Audi A3 and I want to make sure I am properly maintaining it. How can I check the engine oil level and know if I need to add more?

To check the engine oil level in your Audi A3, first make sure the car is on a flat surface and the engine is cool. Open the hood and locate the dipstick, usually marked with a yellow handle. Pull the dipstick out and wipe it clean with a cloth. Reinsert the dipstick and pull it out again to check the level. The oil should be between the two marks on the dipstick. If it is below the minimum mark, you will need to add more oil.

It is important to regularly check your engine oil to avoid any potential damage to your Audi A3. The best time to check is when you are filling up your gas tank. Simply open the hood and locate the dipstick, which is usually marked with a yellow handle. After wiping it clean, reinsert it and pull it out again to check the level. If the oil is below the minimum mark, you will need to add more. Remember to use the recommended type of oil for your Audi A3.
