RS5 servicing query?

[rs4nick]

Hi all, as a previous owner of a B7 RS4 I found rs246 forums to be very helpful and am hoping I can get some info relating to the RS5 i now have. It's due it's 2 year service and I have a couple of questions. Sorry if discussed before but cannot find any info on it.

1. How much should the service be? My audi dealer is quoting c.£490
2. Front end of gearbox oil change - I have a conflict of opinion from 2 dealers with one saying this needs to be done at the 2 year service and one saying it is 20k miles and so not needed yet (as mileage based and mine has done 15k) - does anyone know?! Also been quoted a total service cost of c.£840 including this - does this seem about right?

Understand the back end of the gearbox needs doing at 40k! Goodness knows how much that is!

In all honesty was quite shocked about something needing doing on the gearbox so early - moved from an out of warranty RS4 into a newer in warranty RS5 to reduce maintenance costs but it's cheaper to service the RS4!

Any thoughts appreciated

Read your service book re mechatronic oil change .... Iirc it's 20k irrespective of yrs

Cheers D_K, found the info and you were right at 20k (says 19k in book but everyone seems to talk about 20k)
