Go to a good Audi Stealership in your area, they will know the best recommendations for the conditions in your area.

Just bring a list of things you want to know and dont leave until its satisfied. Also, you can check out edmunds.com to see what is recommended maintenance... Since you have the same car as me I'll give you where I go:

http://www.edmunds.com/maintenance/M...artner=edmunds

Finish the form and it will tell you all you should know

Also, Quattro? or poopy fronttrac?
