Assuming it's the '03 and not the new RS6, it's the same as the 20K service except for:

Check power steering fluid.

Replace air filter.

Replace Plugs

This is from the Bentley Manual. I would verify with the dealer. I'm also assuming that you know what's done on the 20K interval. If not, let me know. There's a lot of things that are done.

Thanks mate - local dealer is trying to hit me with the belts! Checked with another dealer - said it's just standard as you say.

Cheers

I believe the 30k service has a belt replacement - if yours wasn't done at 30k, maybe they are telling you it needs to be done on your 40k service? If not, better do it - ouch on the wallet though. But if not done and they fail, BIG ouch on the wallet.

Why would someone that owns an RS6 have to worry about any hits on the wallet. Im sure those type of people live way bellow their means and are virtually debt free to need to worry about something as simple as auto service.

Well... You would think so but I came real close to buying one earlier this year and I'm flat broke. The only thing that stopped me was I wasn't getting a good trade on the 4.2. The banks are strange. My wife got an M5 financed and since I known her, she's never had a job.

I've had similar strange things with my bank. They used to keep on uping my credit card limit, until I decided to get rid of it. I could buy a mid sized car on my credit card.

I was worried my card or details would be mis-used someday and the bank would say "you did not take adequate care of your credit card" and hence "you are liable for all uses of the card"

No thanks....
