anyone changed their own transmission fluid on the DSG?
My 35k mile mark is coming up soon and I was considering doing it myself. After looking at my Ebaun service manual it isn't as easy as I'm used to. Does anyone know how much the 35k service cost from Audi?

As a matter of fact I was able to pick up the phone a few times before submitting my original post and have not heard back from my local Audi service department. Thank you for the insightful suggestion though.
