Thanks for the video. Don’t these filters last for a year in regular weather conditions?

The title of this thread made me curious...

I thought somebody wanted to change out the entire interior of a Q7. Waiting for MY20 would certainly be the cheaper option...

yes, in the video, I explain that I'm changing this out because of the Northern California wildfires and the amount of ash created here - and I was right to change it it was completely black on the intake side of the filter - lots of ash shook out.

Just curious, how much labor cost would your typical Audi dealer charge you for this filter replacement?

If you were paying, as opposed to Audicare, it was 7 mins of my time - you could probably get it included in an oil change - but would pay x2 for the part.

I think when the time comes I'll be referring back to your video. Thanks for sharing.
