Re: ARB

Just wondering if there is an update to this thread? Looking at ARBs as it has taken me a few months to figure out what's wrong with the RS4s handling vs my M3. It's the roll that seems to make the car less responsive in corners, I think. There is a fractional delay in the shifting of the car's mass...

Re: How much for 1st service?

Hmmm, interesting Audi system states 5w40. I bought 5w30, 10 litres of the stuff. I'll be really pissed off if it is the wrong grade of oil.

Re: How much for 1st service?

It's like them owning a whole side of a Monopoly game board. No way around it is you want an Audi FSH. At least I can use a little less lube now lol

Re: How much for 1st service?

Unfortunately all the 3 local dealers are under the same umbrella group, so I'm kinda stuck as to who I can go to. There is a local monopoly where I live, and the nearest dealer outwith them is so far distance wise as to make the trip ineconomical and too much of an inconvenience. As soon as the war...

Re: How much for 1st service?

Got a quote from the local Independent for approx £190! As the car is new and under warranty, decided to haggle with Audi - finally agreed for a £264 service if I provide my own oil - got 10L of Castrol 5w30 for just under £100, so managed to save over £110. Good result I suppose. Just wished Audi h...

How much for 1st service?

Hi everyone! I've just been quoted £475 for my RS4's 1st service (16k miles) from my local dealer, which includes microfilter changes and oil. It seems very steep. What have you guys been charged by Audi?
