    1st year service

    Well my 4.2 Spyder is now exactly a year old and has just over 5500 miles on the clock.

    Looking at the service book it suggests that for less than 10K miles per year I should be getting an annual service, but no service lights have come up on the dash yet.

    Before I call my dealer

    a) should my car have flagged the service ?
    b) does it rely on me reading the service manual to know when to service it ?

    What will get done on the 1st year service ? just an oil/filter change ?

    That aside, one year down the line and I'm still smitten !

    It is free. Just take it to the dealer and get it done. Free if you purchased Audicare.

    He's in England, so likely the warranty offers and even service schedules are different from Audi USA Maintenance Schedules.
