Default Not to flame you, but you can't be serious asking a question like that....

If you use an approved oil and oil filter then the answer is no. I assume you are going to chance your oil at more frequent intervals. This will be better for the motor.

Audi will still want to see your car on the scheduled intervals, so don't skip those.

Default I am serious. First car with own maintenance plan.

Since oil changes are on Audi's maintneance plan, was not sure if they had something against owners changing it themselves in between.

Default No problem with frequent intervals for the oil change but make sure you do the regular Audi...

inspections as scheduled.
