i'm not sure they rotated my tyres at the first service,....
but i do see in the service guide that it lists it. i should probably call to verify. has anyone had their first service and they didn't do the rotation?

You should have your tires rotated! Audi only does it for free at the first service!
Once the mileage of the vehicle gets above 5k people start to get flat tires, tires replaced, ect. This is why they only do it for free at the 5k.

It is not a question of being free
It is not a question of being free, but what AUDI feels is proper maintenance. For example, VW recomends rotation at 10K and every 10K there after.
AUDI only at 5K?
Makes no sense.

But VW doesn't pay for it ;-)
In principle I agree with you.
Whether Audi wants to include tire rotation in the Advantage maintenance program or not, tire rotation should be listed in the recommended scheduled maintenance schedule.
That said, there are two groups of car owners:
Those that know and, actually rotate their tires when they should without be told.
And those that won't no matter what the scheduled maintenance chart says.
Frankly, I don't think folks in the second group even read the charts anyway.
Of course they're also the group that bitches when their low profile performance tires are destroyed by 15,000 miles.
