Hi All,
I have a question regarding when to check engine oil. I own an Audi S4 B6.
When I check the oil cold without the engine started, the oil dipstick shows the oil well over the max line.
However when I check the oil after starting the car and letting it run for 5 minutes, the oil dipstick shows the oil just above the minimum line.
Which reading should I be going by ?
thanks Raz

RE: When to check engine Oil ?
In The RS4 manual is states, that engine must be started, so warm, then switched off for 2 minutes, then checked. check your manual as It might be different, some cars have dip sticks meant for cold checks, others for hot checks.
