Aye it’s strange how you only needed 5 litres of oil and I need 10 litres?!?
As long as the final price covers everything required it’s probably irrelevant how they build it up.

Haha yeah it's just to make the figures work I reckon, I was quoted 6.7l of oil to fill it.......now should I go and check lol
£93 labour charge to change the oil and filter! I'm in the wrong business!!!Had mine serviced today £194.20 for 1st oil service at 10,600 miles, all covered by the lease deal thankfully.
@Audi Bairn cost will be of interest to you.

I tried to get my local VW and Skoda dealers to service my MK2 TT and they made a lot of excuses about not doing it.
They told me they couldn’t update the service history as well but if you get a full vat invoice from them that would be fine. Was the price they gave you very competitive with Audi as to make it worthwhile.
Had an inspection servicc in November , done 2000 miles and now wants an oil service , quoted £266 . Waiting for a quote from Indy who are a Bosch centre . They say they can update digital service record .
The receptionist seemed “ computer says no” at dealer so have emailed them . If over three years old it would be £189. A real rip off as we are all seeing. Ok small money after paying £30k for a performance car , it is a case of feeling ripped off .

Most of the cost is oil, every dealer has there own mark up cost on the oil.
My dealer charges an eye watering £17 per litre of oil. I supplied them with the same oil I sourced for £7 per litre.
Payed £171 in total.

You guys are all lucky. I was quoted over £370 from Audi for oil change and pollen filter (2nd service on 2016 A3, at about 12K miles). Needless to say, I went to an independent, who completed the work for £140 and updated the online record.
I was quoted a similar price to that for my second service (oil change + pollen filter + inspection).
Yes , but paid alr ast £350 just 6 months and 2000 miles ago ! Anyway Indy can do it for £150 and update service record all with oem parts . Would have been happy to pay the £189 fixed service price

I paid £310 a week ago for oil change plus inspection service which of course was far more expensive than independent but overall not too bad.
They recommended a tyre change however, and for 4 MPS4’s they quoted £148.80 a corner and after 3 emails and a screengrab from blackcircles managed to get them matched at £97.22 a corner.
I assume they’ve already made the profit on the Service, but still, £51 a tyre discount! Makes you think how much money they make on non awkward yorkshire people

My service was covered by Audi UK so there was no negotiation on price, but this is what the invoice says..
AVS - Carried out oil and inspection service with a pollen filter change - £262.50
Premium Screenwash - £2.73
Drain Plug - £4.14
FilterRelem - £10.34
Dust Filter - £17.93
Shell Helix Ultra AV Qty 5.90 - £94.40
So parts and labour is £392.04 with £78.41 VAT bringing it to a grand total of £470.45
Insane the markup on the oil .....

Why would anyone pay someone for screenwash is beyond belief ?
Shell helix ultra av-l can be picked up from £40 for a 5L bottle.
Because it's "Premium" ....
I used my rear wiper on the way home and it looked rather clear like water, so god knows what it is. And well yeah, exactly in regards to the oil.... rip off.
Ok Indy quote all incl vat
Oil £43.61
Filter £9.80
Labour £97.50
Genuine audi filter and correct oil , at a Bosch accredited garage that update on line service record
My main gripe is by splitting the inspection service and oil service the total is over £600 in six months .
The last time I felt bad about service cost is when I had a Land Rover so got rid of it and bought a Honda !
Might start looking at a Jag E Pace ,
Though I really like my car just dislike the dealers.

And you actually paid that? That makes me angry, and it's not even my money.
Also, pollen filter and dust filter are the same thing - have they charged you twice? Carbon filter is £9 from TPS, and it takes 5 minutes to change it yourself.
There's not really much difference in an inspection/oil service at indies. Most indies just do everything, i.e. inspect suspension, bushes, exhaust etc as well as doing the oil change. At least my Audi specialist did. Audi even offer a free 'health check' where they do a 90+ point inspection.
Aye. 40K is the big one pal. I've just done my Haldex at 33K so I won't be stung on that when I have to do the S-Tronic oil and Spark plugs at 40. Perhaps I'll be lucky and won't get to 40K by the time I hand the car back next year for end of contract. One can hope xD
