Default Question re: brake and MT6 fluid changes at service intervals:
Specifically, looking at the Maintenance schedule for 2005 at Bentley, I can't tell if Audi ever replaces either the brake fluid or the manual transmission fluid at any of the service intervals. I've had my 35 and 45k services done in the last six months, but need to know what has been done to date. Thanks much!

Default MT6 is "lifetime fill" so i'm sure they didn't change it.
i do mine about every 30k. 50-60k would probably be sufficient...

Default i do a flush every 2 years. if you live in a more humid area...probably sooner, since brake
fluid gets destroyed by moisture.

Default i've had great luck with redline mt90 over the years
however the OEM fluid worked well also... can't vouch for motul. the trans will be thankful for any good syn i'd say...
