buy a bosch one from TPS or euro car parts, save around 40% if not more!

Yep because all dealerships are franchises and are not owned by Audi UK. They all get their parts from TPS. It's up to the dealership to decide how much profit they make on a part. Audi UK will not get involved.

Yeah get a bosch one, much cheaper!

If you must stay OEM, try VW or Skoda dealers, the Skoda ones can be suprisingly cheap for the same part.
