Afternoon All,
So two weeks into the ownership of my Audi A8 and I have to say I am loving it!!
The car has done 32k on the clock, with full Audi service history. I need to start thinking about its next service which I believe is a major one at 40k miles. Can anyone recommend a decent independent place? Or should I stick with Audi? Any ideas how much its likely to cost?
Thanks!
With 8 do you have? Does it need a cambelt?
I meant, what A8 do you have.
bloody auto-correct....
Audi A8 SE 3.0 TDI Quattro (2012) I dont believe they have cam belts?
mines the same as yours D4 2011 and mines a chain so i expect yours is too
Yeah, all the D4s have chains. Saves a lot of cash unless they go wrong......
Anyway, you should have a local VAG specialist somewhere. Especially being in the Birmingham area.
If you can do stuff yourself, then they can be quite easy to work on. Like oil and oil/air filters, brakes, headlights (a few screws and a connector and they slide forward and out!). Get the stuff from local or when Halfords have oil offers and GSF/Eurocarparts etc.
So you can save a few quid as Audi will charge you £100+ per hour...
I get them to do my MOTs though, and they will give it a health check and video of issues and prices... (gulp).
