Does anyone have the steps that should be followed to do an oil change specifically on the Q5? With pictures would be great.

A bit of a pain and waste of time on the refill without a real dipstick though. I picked one up for something like $25. Electronics are great, but they can't SEE, SMELL, or FEEL the oil.
