Default just called the dealer

and asked to schedule an appointment for my 5k service. He said the dealer is going to go through all the TSB's. I asked if I can bring my own oil and he told me no, the dealer will provide it at no charge...

I thought we had to pay for it?

Default If it's an 04 you bring your own synthetic...he might mean dino oil

you bring your own no matter what for the in between 5K services. But the 05's get synthetic from dealer.

Default 04's get Dino Oil and 05's get Synthetic per Audi Policy.....

your dealer might have its own ammendments to the policy.

Default Sounds about right. Maybe a few dollars less if yuo hunted around...

although the savings rarely seem to balance the value of the time wasted

Default Talk to the Dealer

As JD noted, some have their own policy. My dealer used the same Castrol synthetic for my '04 as is used for the '05s.
