wuzzat VAG tool?

[Iain Atkinson]

How odd,
in the Uk it's 10k miles or 12 months, unless from Sept last year you bought
a new Audi on AVS ( Audi Variable Servicing) which means dependin how and
where the car is driven you may not a first yes first service for 2 years or
20K miles. The oil used in these cars is so thin 0w30 mostly,  by Castrol
and Mobil. All according to the dealership i work in anyway. This for both
petrol and diesel motors apart from i believe the 115 bhp tdi engine, turbo
or non turbo.

Use your owner's manual intervals.  Audi specifies 5K miles interval
for the turbocharged engines.
