Default 55k service coming up......what to expect??

I'm not sure on the bill yet, but now that my RS4 is off service I'm thinking a lot of these are DIY...I dont mind a few extra hundred bucks here and there to save me the time, but just wondering if anone else has had their 55k done yet. I've already upgraded the pads, and changed the brake fluid...I should just get off my A$$ and go read the manual...thanks.....

I see that you got the MGM catbacks... Do they drone on the highway? I am thinking about getting these instead of the Miltek. What are your thoughts/experiece? I know they sound awesome.

Sorry I can't contribute to your question, I'm only 25K into my thrill machine.

GMG cat back sounds awesome. If you do not mind the can look of the mufflers then go for it. Much better build quality than Milltek.

GMG... Woops, I spelled that wrong, late night... Thank you for the info RS4 RAIDER! I'm in SoCal so that's a local shop for me. I put a call into them and they are also working on a ECU chip as soon as they have the numbers out on that I'll take a ride down there and do the install.

I think my 55K service was around $500. Know they topped off all the fluids, changed spark plugs, and pollen filter. They did some other stuff but I don't recall. I had my rotors changed at 50K and brake pads at 20K and 50K.

The GMG exhaust does not drone. It makes a lot deeper and throatier sound. At 2-3K RPM its ar its loudest. I got one of the first units and have had no problems. I think it looks great when its thermal coated.
