I fixed it guys.... Cleaned out my secondary filter and my air filter. and I polished my engine. Got all the dust off. Basically I guess my engine was suffocating. The secondary filter was clogged with dragonflies dirt and other debris. Right after that, I took it out and destroyed a Srt 4. Still wondering about the oil but im guessing from the comments that I should take care of the matter at my own expense. As for changing the oil myself, ive heard rumors that audi has a special key to tap into the oil and the filter and that It would be impossible for me to access that portion of my engine without the key.

I can't speak for the 3.2FSI, but I can say for sure that the 2.0TFSI doesn't need any special key, and I don't imagine the 3.2 would need one either. I've changed the oil in those cars many many times - only thing different from a regular oil change is the paper type filter (not the regular spin on type) and the synthetic oil you'd better be using.

tooxtreme - if you car is a manual transmission, try removing the filter by reaching up the along the side of the transmission - much easier than through the top. I can change my oil in 10 minutes now, including removing and reattaching the skid plate.

You definitly need to change your Oil first and go from there... every 3-4k Miles imo.


Also you do use 91 + Gasoline in it, tell me you havent been using 87.
