How do you open the hood of an Audi A4?

I want to check the engine oil in my Audi A4, but I don’t know how to open the hood. How do I open the hood of an Audi A4?

Kudos to you for staying on top of your car’s engine oil!
Popping open the hood of an
Audi A4
 is simple. All you need to do is follow these three easy steps:
  • Pull the lever on the bottom left-hand side of the driver’s seat—you’re looking for the level with the open car hood icon
  • Walk around to the front of the car—your hood should now be slightly cracked open. Slide your fingers underneath the hood and find the lever, typically located immediately above the Audi logo on the front bumper. Once you find the lever, nudge it to the left when you’re facing the car.
  • You can now lift the Audi’s hood open.
If you want to make sure your
Audi A4
 is always in the best condition,
Jerry
 will make sure you have the
best insurance policy
 to cover your maintenance expenses. A licensed broker that offers end-to-end support, the Jerry app gathers affordable quotes, helps you switch plans, and can even help you cancel your old policy.

Is it bad to get a car wash everyday?
Can you help settle this debate I’ve been having with my husband? He got me a subscription to a local car wash, but I only go three or four times a month—I don’t want to damage my car’s paint job. He thinks I should go more often, even daily, to get the most out of the membership. Is it bad to get a car wash everyday?
