Audi dealership told me 100k for standard driving and 90k if a guy's really getting on it.
I won't wait till 90k.

Sounds cheap if not on par. Not hard to do yourself if you dont mind taking the time.

That was the labor quote. No parts, but still. I asked before I bought my car about that and a few other things and that's what the service department told me.
