Whether you have just driven home your new Audi, Porsche, or VW car or whether still driving a used vehicle, it is important to keep up with your maintenance. Checking your fluids is easy and requires no tools except perhaps for some paper towels. Check your fluids after returning home from a trip of at least a few miles so that the fluids are at the normal operating viscosity. Here’s what to do.

1. Check your oil. Remove the dipstick from your oil reservoir, and wipe it clean. Replace the dipstick back into the reservoir and remove it again. There will be markings such as engraved text or holes to indicate “low” level and “full” level. If needed, add oil to the oil reservoir to bring the level to the “full” mark without overfilling.

2. Transmission fluid. For automatic vehicles, transmission fluid must be checked to ensure proper working levels. Much like changing your oil, the transmission fluid is stored in a reservoir with a dipstick. While the car is running, remove the dipstick, clean it off, and replace it again. Next remove the dipstick again and check the markings on the dipstick.

3. Engine coolant. Please ensure that your vehicle has completely cooled down before checking the engine coolant. This system is pressurized, and if you remove a radiator cap that is still hot or even warm you could be scalded by coolant. Most new cars will have a reservoir, otherwise remove the radiator cap from the radiator and visually check the levels. If they are low, use a 50/50 mixture of water and coolant to refill. The reservoir will be marked, but if your car doesn’t have a reservoir fill the coolant to about an inch below the neck of the radiator.

4. While you’re at it, check your windshield washer fluid. Caught in a storm or with a windshield covered with debris is not a great time to realize your out of washer fluid.

By taking 5 minutes to check these fluids you will be able to save yourself from thousands of dollars in potential damage and repair costs.

If you’re not comfortable checking your own fluids, stop by our Philadelphia Audi, VW, and Porsche dealer for full service and vehicle maintenance.

Audi has long been one of the most beautiful cars on the road and true Audi lovers will really enjoy driving the 2010 Audi A4 Avant, for a number of reasons. For one thing, there are very few other vehicles on the road that can gracefully combine luxury, sophistication and utility. Audi does it magnificently in the 2010 A4 Avant.

On the outside, Audi looks like a luxury vehicle with practical sporty features. On top there’s the Open Sky sunroof for your driving enjoyment. Lots of room, air and sun can fill your driving experience and that’s as it should be. Alongside the sunroof, the A4 Avant showcases outer edge roofrails, perfect for carrying cargo, bikes, skis and other large objects that won’t fit in the back hatch.

Moving to the inside, the 210 Audi A4 Avant includes MMI control logic through state-of-the-art technology that allows better control over audio and internal technological features. One of those advanced technological features is easy integration with the iPod. Then there’s the superb rear storage feature with a rear power tailgate.

The 2.0-liter 4 cylinder engine leads its class in torque and fuel efficiency with gasoline direct injection. You have the Audi valve lift system, the Dynamic Shift Program and the Electronic Stabilization Program. It delivers an impressive 211 horsepower and 258 pound feet of torque. Gas mileage = 21 mpg in the city, 27 mpg on the highway and 23 combined.

The A4 Avant’s drivetrain consists of a self-locking center differential as well as automatic and variable front to rear power proportioning. The 6-speed Tiptronic transmission coupled with a rack-and-pinion steering affords an easy 37.4 ft. turning circle.

The suspension system is just as impressive as anything else on the new Audi A4 Avant. On the front end, it’s a five-link suspension with upper and lower wishbones and a tubular anti-roll bar. On the rear, it’s wheel independent, trapezoidal link and a mounted subframe with anti-roll bar.

Safety-wise, the 2010 Audi A4 Avant includes a tire pressure monitoring system and an advanced airbag system. Front airbags for the driver and passenger are full size with two-stage activation and both front passengers also have side airbags and Sideguard head airbags. Audi also includes a rear impact backguard system that sustains body support and head support for the passengers when the vehicle is struck from behind. The seatbelts are active restraints with belt-force limiters and belt tensioners.

Audi also includes some impressive add-on packages. There’s the Driver Assist Package, HomeLink and Bluetooth Package, Navigation Plus Package, and two Sports Packages. You can learn more about these on the Audi website.

All in all, the 2010 Audi A4 Avant is a spectacular vehicle made for the 21st century driver. If you seek luxury in a sporty package then this is the vehicle for the discriminating driver.
