Somebody please slap me. (Rant and request for advice)
I just blew almost all of my CP certificates on my 60K service. I had NO IDEA it would come to $300+, didn't even think to ask. At least I had enough left to get some rubber Audi Sport logo all-weather mats.
Am I an idiot, or am I just naive about how much preventive maintenance costs? Should I have just done it DIY? Do I need to drive down to Gaithersburg for routine service? I'm thinking of REVOing it for its 70K birthday, or maybe 67,500, so maybe I'll just do that anyway, but isn't there anyplace close by (Northern Baltimore County) I can go for routine stuff? Somebody who won't wreck my vavle stem cap or tear my leather hand brake??? Honestly, I've had the car for THREE YEARS and never broke a valve stem cap or tore the leather, and they managed to do it in 2 hours! WTF?
