  1. After spending £2.5k on the wife’s Mini, having a rebuilt transmission at 80k, I was advised to change the oil every 35k. Expect to pay around £200 for an oil change. Get the filter replaced too. If doing yourself, read up about temperature. If you drain the oil cold you’ll leave loads of crap in there. Might pay to go to a transmission place rather than a garage. They may be able to tell you their thoughts on the condition of the transmission after seeing the oil and taking a test drive. And start putting some pennies away each month ready for the £2.5k - £3k rebuild. Any auto of that mileage is expecting a rebuild. May never happen, but be prepared. If it came with the tow bar, then make the oil change urgent. Don’t mean to scare monger, but the transmission needs looking after too. Even if the manufacturers think it doesn’t. Audi don’t make transmissions, so what do they know lol.
