I just got 1 year 15 K maintenance done on my 97 A4 tqm. According to the Service Invoice they cahnged Oil, filter and gasket. Nothing else is mentioned. They don't rotate tires as they do in 7.5 K service. According to the Maintenance Manual (p.7) they should check at least 17 points and replace dust and pollen filte, and road test the car. They haven't done these. I know because I waited. This is Rod East Audi in San Antonio. Would you please kind enough to tell me about your 15K service experiences? BTW I don't have any problem with the car. and I love it.<p>Yahya Akyel <br>97 A4 tqm

I just had mine completed last week. They did rotate the tires (at least they said they did - I need to check to see if the tire that got plugged 3 weeks ago now resides in the front - it was a pretty good size bolt !). They told me that the dust/polin filter gets changed at 30K. Other than about breaking my back when I got in (they had the seat all the way reclined and the sterio was cranked up with the base and treblel up to +5.) I listen to it loud but not like that. I also took it back yesterday because the drain plug was not tight enough (at least thats what they said) - there was oil on my garage floor, the oil was registering at the minimum level and needed more, and the rear windshield wiper resevoir was empty. Well they didn't top off the oil as I discovered last night, and they had top order a jet for the rear wash. They could not find a seperate resevoir in the trunk and said it is fed off the front wipers resevoir.<br>Other than that this car still drives like its brand new and I love it.<p>Dave K 98.0 Avant 2.8 QT<br>
