Hi,
I'm a new member. Recently purchased a 2010 A3 Sportback black edition Quattro.
I had it serviced last week and was advised that I may need a 'Four wheel coupling oil change'
I've tried to do my own research but is this basically an oil change on the 4 wheel drive Quattro system?
Thanks in advance

Yep, sounds like it... should be every 20k miles (I think).

Thanks for your help guys.
Does the filter need changing the same time as the oil?

You're talking of the Haldex coupling, No filter on your late model. Mines 2010 and I don't have a filter.
