Default 60k Assessment on my 07 b7

well just busted the 60k mark on my dolphin grey audi....had her since she was almost a virgin. Very pleased with the car and in August will be at the 3 year mark of ownership. My 65k maintenance i am told will vary from 175-200 bucks so am happy about that....they probably dont do much at that interval..i used to do my own maintenance when i couldnt afford to but thankfully those days are over..now got to keep the stealerships in business :-)

Only problem i have had is the center cigarette plug went bad..they blamed liquid spilled on it but not so sure it got burnt out using my cheap plug in tire pump. anywho will stay on this forum till the tires fall off my baby in 2020! thanks to all that post cause this information helps out!!! only thing i am looking for is cheap audi windshield shade...

i wouldnt recommend it unless you got money to blow..... if u look in your book it tells you everything they do. not much but your also paying 90 hr labor..i used to go ther till my warrenty ran out and it was basically 500 for every service and all they did was check some things (which is nice ). but only oil change and plugs.... def not even 250...... i try to avoid it as long as you check up on things like fluids ect. your should be good..i only go there for oil changes cuz when they change your oil they look over your car. could give you a heads up to something you dono bout....but def.not for serv....500 bucks. thats a set of tires or a timming belt...................i stopped doing that at 50k. and i havent had anyting go wrong and im pushin 100......... just need to keep that oil changed b/w 5k and 7k........ oil is the blood of your car

thats a good call, not sure exactly where it is but there is a good chance that just the fuse is blown and the plug itself is fine

:-) i don't know either. with all of the cars i've owned in the past, the fuse box was always under the hood. otherwise it should be in the steering column area. maybe someone can chime in what fuse and where. if you find it, i guess you could just pull each one and check. because it's a 12V, it's probably one of the bigger ones.

The cig lighter fuse would be in the manual. A side note is that the indicated fuse on my GTI which went out was not even the right fuse listed in my manual. I had to look online for a diagram.
