The question
I have an Audi A3 hatchback 1.4 petrol with only 5,500km on the clock, doing short trips. Bought the car in September 2014. Do I need an oil and filter change?

Hi F D,
We'd recommend readers change their cars' oil and filter at least once a year regardless of mileage. Short hops are actually tougher on the engine (and its oil) as it does a lot of its driving when not fully warmed up.
