Default NEW 2002 TT 225 QC

My car has been delayed, long story. Does the TT factory fill with snythetic ( my service manager says no )? My first factory service is oil change at 16m kilometers. I changed the oil on my A4 EVERY 4M kilometres, the factory plan was every 8m kilometers for the A4!

When did you do your first oil change? I am planning on my tried and true every 4m kilometers (about 2500 miles.) Why the increase in service intervals to every 16m kilometers? so much for AUDI Advantage SERVICE!

Default Im taking delivery on Saturday and was thinking about doing the

same interval with oil changes simply because the Author of a turbo book I read suggested to do so.. Even though some might consider it unnecessary, Id rather be safe then sorry.. If changing the oil every 2500 miles prevents at least 1 problem 50,000 miles down the road then Ill be happy..

I agree, my A4 has 54m miles on it and has never had a problem.

Default I'm running high 99, low 100 . .. oh, you mean what oil in the engine?

Mobil 1 10W30. I change it every 5,000, but I have a 2000 and the 2001 and 2002 models call for a 10k interval. I would still change it every 5k if it were my car.
