IMO if you are leasing then AudiCare is a good idea...especially if you are not doing any of the maintenance yourself.
I do some of the basic maintenance myself...oil changes in particular...so for me, AudiCare is a waste of money.
My dealer wants to charge me $108 to do an oil change...I can do it in 30 minutes in my garage instead of the 2 hours+ it would take by going to the dealership (including drive time) and the cost out of pocket for me is 1/2 that. Plus I'm doing UOA each time and, even though that cost's me about $28 including the TBN, I'm still saving money and especially time.
Plus I enjoy changing the oil myself...extra bonus.
