Hi
I've got a 64 Plate A3 Automatic with 37000 miles . The indicator telling me I need an oil change and inspection came on and I've got about another 500 miles to go. Rang the dealer and was quoted £500+ for service and gearbox oil change. As I thought this a bit too much I found a local Audi specialist who quoted me a lot less for the service ; they use genuine Audi parts and the service is to Audi standard. When I asked if that included the automatic gearbox oil change he said that it didn't need doing as there was no filter involved yet the Audi site refers to oil and filter change. I'm totally confused but I don't want to invalidate my warranty. Can someone help me out please?
