Default 65,000 mile service now or at 65,000 miles

I have a 2012 A4 Avant with about 60,000 miles on it. The computer says its time for my 65,000 service. It's been a year since my 55,000 service. Should I wait another 5000 miles or do it now?

Thanks,
Phil

According to Audi resetting the "service due" indicator will simply cause it to re-trigger in 1 year or in 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. I have only driven 5,000 miles in the past year. I do not drive it particularly hard. However, since an oil change (essentially what is done at 65K) is relatively inexpensive, I will do it now.

While we're on the topic of oil...

The owners manual for my 2012 Audi A4 says to use oil that adheres to the VW 502 00 specification. Is this necessary? I have a 2012 A4 Avant with 90k miles.

Thanks
