I have an`08 Q7 coming off Audi care and am contemplating buying Audi care + since I plan keeping the car for the next 3 years... low mileage, cpo`d off lease and I was the original leasee... so I've had the car all this time. Any ideas on the cost of the 55k/65k/75k maintenance for a V6 Q7 versus $1,130 for AC+? Thanks.

I was contemplating the same so very interested in hearing from others who have done the home work. My 09 just got the 45k service and that is where my Audi Care runs out.

I paid $1,050 for the 55K-65K-75K Audi Care Plus with the purchase of my 2008 CPO. I'm sure the standard cost of these factory recommended services would be more than that.

I was also looking, I don't remember the exact numbers.

But my service rep did the calculations for the 55k/65k/75k, and I think it comes out to be about 15%-20% savings with AudiCare+.

I don't remember exactly, he wrote it down for me somewhere. But I do remember it was not THAT significant from paying your own. It might be a little more saving, he did mentioned that his pay as you service calculations included the 10% off coupons I usually get in the mail, etc...

I was going to revisit when I bring it in for the 55k service. I'm at 47k now, so I'm done with my regular AudiCare. He said I can just pay for AudiCare+ right before they do any 55k work, and it'll be cover. So I'll decide then.

Wasn't sure if I'm going to keep it till 75k, hence my hesitation.

Of course you could probably save even more by having the maintenance done at an indie shop...

What's an indie shop?

Independent shop(ie non dealer) who specializes in Audi. We have several here in Atlanta that do the same work as a dealer for ~40% less. If you are still under the original 4yr/50k warranty maybe wait a bit but once out- why spend dealer rates?

I will check out some local ones and compare, thanks!
