Default Preventive Maintenance Schedule for A4 B8 model

I've recently purchased a 09 CPO, and wanted to create a cheat sheet for PM schedule. It's not so clear reading the manual. Can someone summarize the PM schedule especially the tune-up for engine and transmission. Is there any maintenance required for turbo and differential?

Also where should I take the vehicle for service? I do my own oil change and brake pad replacement, and possibly changing the transmission fluid if it's easy enough. But I'm not so sure at what mileage interval I should do this. Also how long does the timing belt last on this model? I heard B8 uses timing chain and does not need to be replaced.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. That helps alot.

The schedule doesn't mention about timing belt except for TT models. So am I correct in assuming that timing belts do not need any maintenance or are subject to replacement schedule?

you're very welcome. i think they call the belt as "ribbed V belt". apparently every 75k miles for your car.
