Thanks shipo. I'll certainly change it every year o be safe. I may not have it done by the dealer though...

 

No real need to have the dealer do it, just SAVE YOUR RECEIPTS!!!!

 

Shipo,

I sent you a PM to thank you, but I want to thank you publicly too! It's really amazing that you take your time and share your knowledge with us.

And you really helped me out, because the dealer was telling me to use some other type of oil. I looked up your info, and you are spot on! Now I will have to take the Audi folks in Taipei to the Shipo school of oil...distance learning of course!

 

Glad I could help.

I find it very interesting thatthe Audi dealers in your neck of the woods haven't clued in to the proper care and feeding of the very engines that they're selling. Annoying.

Please keep us posted on how they respond to your challenge. This ought tobe good.
