Planning a 1400 miles road trip, what spare parts should I bring ?
Or do I need to bring any spare parts ?
The S4 only has 18K mile on the odometer.
And what on the car should I check before the trip ?

From Toronto to Montreal
From Montreal to Boston
From Boston to New York
From New York to Niagara Fall

No expert, but...
I know I don't leave for any sort of trip without the following:
1. spare tire
2. 1 quart of castrol 5w-40.. pain in the rear to find ANYWHERE, let alone in an emergency.
3. tire chuck.. air compressors are a lot easier to find than air compressors with tire chucks.
4. spare cell phone battery and/or car charger.
5. audi road-side assistance card
Deffinately check fluids, tire pressure, and lights, wipers.. You've got a solid car so if there's anything else you run into, it'll probably be something you'd need to get a tow for anyway..

Genius... at about $30 a pop.. and the fact that the car isn't going anywhere with one out... It's
absolutely PRICELESS to carry a couple and as mentioned, a small torx set too... That way you can replace in 15-20 minutes what may take a couple days at a dealer... given they have stock and given it's not the weekend.. and given you can find a dealer!!!!!!
DON'T FORGET A FLASHLIGHT!!!!!!!
