I recently scheduled my 5k oil change and the service dept said that Audi doesn't 'cover' synthetic oil in its free maintenance. True? I was told they'll use 5W-30 as standard... I thought synthetic came in the car from the factory, no?

Anyway, should I just take my own Mobil One and not leave it to them to decide what oil to use? (4+ quarts, right?)

Thanks

But if you want Mobil1 just bring it with you

True. At my dealer, you either bring in Mobil 1 or they will put in for a charge. It's 4.8 quarts.

most use dino juice. I bring a Mobil 1 6 pack and get back 1 + a little in another. Easier to give them a sealed case.

Denny I forgot where you said you took your TT... I ended up in Wallingford as it was the closest and will just see how things go there.

Good idea on the 6 pack Larry, I'll do the same.

did you get my email with phone numbers and such? My email has been very retarded lately, so I'm never sure.

Synth or synth blends are extra.

At least at my dealer, they just charge the price differential between what their cost is and what Audi will pay for...

RTinNYC(again)

it costs $16 for Mobil 1. How does that compare to buying it at the store???

This seems sort of late doesn't it? I have always swapped my grease every 3k at the most.

I did see that 5k was the first scheduled in the maintenance guide however..

Mobil 1 costa about $24-25 for a 6 pack or about $20/oil change
