You will find the audi only speced fluids ridiculously priced. Pentosin is very expensive .. it is up to you but if you want to stay with what the manufacturer specs it will cost you .. the transmision fluid is the real shocker .. the rest not so bad ..

i use ATE super blue and gold .. pentofrost coolant .. the transmision i haven't done yet

It came out to be $217.95 with shipping. for the price of the fluids you would think shipping is free.

The Trans fluid alone was $115.23 for 9 bottles.

I was about to **** my self or **** in the Trans just fill it when the sales person told me this.

what a rip off.

any other car it cost no more then $100 bucks for fluids.

My *** hurts now i am going to put ice on it. I just ben ****ed with no Lube (A.K.A. fluid)......I didn't even get a ride home (A.K.A. shipping). lol jk
