    Where do you do your oil change?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I always done my own oil changes on my other cars, but the B7 oil change seems to be a little more involved. So I'm trying to find a good place (preferably dealer) to do oil changes. Are there any Audi dealers in the Boston area that does oil changes for under $50-60? What are your experience with them? I have Revo stage 1 on my car, should I switch to stock before visiting dealer for oil change? Thanks!

    Since I got my car chipped, I haven't been able to lift the gas pedal :D. So far, no problems, the car runs fine. Thinking about getting HFC and Stage 2......sigh.....

    As for dealers, isn't IRA Audi kinda expensive? I remember looking at their them while shopping for an A4, they wanted $29K for a CPO'd 07 A4 (in Jan 10), and I ended up buying a similar CPO'd car (5k higher miles, minus Navi) for $20k. So I would imagine their service would be expensive too, Herb Chambers had a $59.99 oil change before (not sure how much now), but how much is an oil change at IRA?

    its really simple.... you just need to get the filter socket here http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-B7_A4-...ance/ES240945/ to remove the plastic housing than its a basic oil change from there on. than get the 5 quart oil from castrol for about $36 + 12 filter and you got yourself a $50 oil change... herb charges 135+ tax for an oil change... rip off imo.. but i have audi care so im good for now

    If you want to take a ride, TNT Auto Works in Pepperell, MA is good. They did all the work on my B6 A4 Avant - all top notch.

    just buy your self a pella extractor, new filter and the proper amount of oil and give it a whirl. I finally started changing my oil last year after paying for the past few years.
