    Audicare worth the cost on RS7?

    I'm trying to figure out if Audicare is worth the price on a RS7 vs going to independent mechanic. Looks like most services are oil changes with occasional air filter or cabin filter change. 35k mile service looks to include spark plug change. Is there anything that I'm missing here?

    Don't bother with going elsewhere. Audicare is more than worth it as it will greatly reduce the price. If you haven't bought the car yet roll it into the deal and you should get a much better price, but even at the normal price it will be a lot cheaper than anything else.

    Audicare will reduce what price? You mean the cost of paying for the services individually?

    Looks like it would cover a sport differential fluid change at 35k too

    If you do a search, a couple of the services cost as much as AudiCare. Bundling 4 services for the price of 1 is a no brainer.

    I negotiated it as part of my 2016 RS7 purchase.

    I understand but your post wasn't making sense. What price was being reduced.

    If it's a lease audicare usually gives 1% for the residual so it pays for itself if that's what you meant

    Audicare pays for itself. It's a great deal and will save you money compared to getting it done anywhere dealer or indie

    If your car is brand new ... why wouldn't you want the dealership to do all the maintenance (Audicare)? Having the dealership do the maintenance ensures that if anything goes wrong .... they will have your back. If your car is new or CPO .... Audicare. If your car is used, non-CPO, tuned ....... indy.
