Default Kinda nice that Audi supplies the oil for these beasts free.

had a faulty snap on my drivers side floor mat replaced today and the SM flipped me a quart of 505-01 castrol after I told him it had used 1/2 quart in 1500 miles during break-in. At $16 a bottle its nice that they will be paying for this stuff for the next 4 years.

Default Replacement

I'd gladly replace the free oil for a full screen Nav though! Only the oil...maintenance warranty still 4 years, with all paid, but oil change out-of-pocket!

Default What I meant...

Right now we get the oil change done, including labor, as part of the maintenance schedule. I figured that during the 4 years of warrantied ownership, I'd rather pay for the oil change and labor costs included, if the car were to come with a full screen Nav as they do in European countries.

However, I would not be willing to give up the full 4 years of warranty, as with concerns to all other maintenance costs. In Europe, I don't believe they get the 4 year/50K mile warranty on the RS models.
