Got the '3000 miles to go' warning on my A4 Cab 3.0 sport '03 plate, whats involved in this service and whats it likely to cost me?

Any decent, reputable places in Hertfordshire anyone can recommend? I'm guessing main dealer prices are gonna be very high, and Audi specialists local to me, in Hertford?

If this is the first time YOU are going to service the car i would change the oil.oil filter,pollen filter and the brake fluid....Would also do the timeing belt and waterpump too (these need to be done at 80k)

Shouldn't the timing belt have already been done in 2008? I thought it was 80k or 5yrs, whichever was first? (Could be wrong mind!)

No you are totally correct, 5 years.

Audi must of started seeing belts snapping before the 80k is up

Does the 3.0TDI have a timing belt?? Thought i'd seen some posts saying it was a chain??!

I'm looking at getting one so would be good to know!! Any idea how much the service including the belt change would be?? (If it is belts?!)

I've only used them once (new to Audis) but was impressed - Russell Automotive, sponsors on here. NW London - not that far - they may collect, ask them.

Belt AFAIK, only the V8 has a chain.....

Audi will be reassuringly expensive ;)
