You've also got to make sure to fill up with winter air for your tires when it gets warm outside: that way the tires don't overheat in the sun and when rolling on the hot pavement.

When your blinkers start to blink faster than normal you are low on fluid.

$65 for syn is not a bad price, an oil change on any car is the same and not a difficult job for any shop as long as they dont have an amateur guy who forgets to tighten the filter or bolts enough... anyways you should be fine, just check your oil level for the nexxt few days and if it remains constant youre good.

If you own an audi, it's pretty much how is is. My friend has to to put a quart a week into his A6 lol. He said it doesn't burn it, it just leaks out everywhere, and pretty common issue lol.

Where is the original guy? Is he going to give us an answer or we keep trolling? I hope he was joking about the 40-60k oil change.

Because if you put 40,000 miles on a car without a oil change... May the car gods strike you down
I did get the car used, and I probably put about 5k miles on it now. The car wasnt shifting smoothly so I decided to get oil change. I did a full Synthetic and WOW! it feels awesome!!!
