Default 1999 1.8TQ: How much should a brake fluid change cost?
What is a reasonable range of prices for a non-Audi dealer garage to charge for a brake fluid change?

Is the brake fluid in an Audi fairly standard or is it something that a non-Audi dealer garage would have to special order?

Default I imagine any reputable shop will have the right fluid
It can't hurt to ask them about it though. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
