Hey everyone! I’ve got a 2015 Audi A4, and I’m wondering how often I should schedule gearbox service? Are there any specific issues or signs I should watch out for that might indicate it needs attention? Thanks!

    For a 2015 Audi A4 gearbox service, the general recommendation is to change the transmission fluid and filter every 40,000 miles (about 64,000 km) or approximately every 3-4 years, whichever comes first. This is especially important if your A4 has the multitronic CVT or the S-tronic dual-clutch transmission, which both rely on clean fluid to operate smoothly and prolong lifespan.

    What to Watch Out For
    - Shifting issues: Hesitation, jerking, or clunky shifts can be signs that the gearbox fluid is old or low.
    - Warning lights: Transmission or check engine lights that pop up could be related to the transmission system.
    - Noise: Whining or unusual noise during gear changes is a red flag.
    - Delayed engagement: If the car takes a moment before it moves when you shift into drive, it might be time for a service.

    Skipping or delaying the service can lead to premature wear or costly repairs, so keeping up with the fluid change is like giving your gearbox a spa day—it keeps things happy and smooth!

    If the A4 has been cared for with regular services every 10,000 miles or yearly, including gearbox checks, you’re in a good spot. Just remember, a smooth-shifting Audi is a happy Audi. And no one likes a grumpy gearbox! ⚙️😎🚗

    For the 2015 Audi A4, it is recommended to service the transmission every 60,000 km or two years, whichever comes first, including a transmission fluid change. This interval is typical for Audi DSG and automatic transmissions, but aggressive driving, towing, or frequent city driving should shorten the interval.
