Service schedules?

Hello

Been told this is the place to come for knowledge on these cars.

I've been looking at RS4's and RS6's and I think the 6 is a better option for me. I've been reading around on things to look out for and, whilst I've found a lot of good info, the one thing I just can't find is what work needs to be done at each service interval. I've been eyeing up a couple of cars, on regular service intervals rather than long life, but want to be sure that all the required work has been done on time and so I can ask the right questions.

Also, is there a rough price guide on servicing costs (main dealer)? One of the cars is Approved Used and we're about 1k away from each other in cost to change. If I can get him to throw in a free service or two to make the deal then I'm sure we could reach an agreement but don't want to drop my pants unnecessarily. Appreciate if I don't get the 'if you have to ask you can't afford' response, I've ran a number of high maintenance cars in the past and it's better to go in with your eyes open rather than finding out the kids don't eat one month a year.

Obviously if I purchase I'll get the pictures up.

Cheers

I recently bought from Harrogate Audi, and nabbed to get two years fully comprehensive warranty & 2 free services. You will only get this sort of thing if you take out some kind of finance with them. Obviously you can just pay the finance off within 14 days and still retain the extras.

Cheers. Managed to sort out a deal today. History is good, brakes are recent, oil pressure sensor has been replaced and leaky drc been done recently too. Car appears to have been looked after by previous owner.
P/X for my car got to where I wanted so all in, pretty happy with it. Collect on Wednesday.
