Default "Audi Care" on '06 A3, Second Owner?

I've had my black & tan 2006 A3 Sport for about 4 months now and loving the car so far. Dropped it off at the dealer (Midwestern Auto Group in Columbus, OH) today for the 35K routine service. When I mentioned "Audi Care" the service-bot typing up my service order mumbled something about it not being covered. I decided to arm myself with some web investigation before butting heads with them.

The car is a very early 2006 (according to CarFax actually delivered in late 2005) with just under 35K miles, which I bought used. My understanding was that Audi Care was offered on these early A3's and that it transferred beyond the original owner. Can anyone tell me for sure what's up with Audi Care before I write the big check to the dealer tonight?

Default Yes you have free maintenance for 4/50k

Everything should be covered other than brakes and tires. Audi Care is the maintenance package for 2007+ cars.

Default Purchased from Private Party ...

... does that affect the transfer of the "Audi Advantage" coverage?

It should not. On extended warranties, yes.

Only the scheduled ones in the manual or when the service indicator comes on.
