Default who does your oil change?

I've been taking my RS4 to Audi Mission Viejo for oil changes, but it's a bit out of the way. Can I take the RS4 to any oil service, or do they need to be specialized in the RS4? I don't imagine taking it to a Jiffy Lube is ideal.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Default don't take it to jiffy lube.

find a local independent shop that has experience with modern Audis. On our cars, removing (and replacing) the undertray is more of a problem than the actual oil change.

Default Not to change the topic here, but...

...I've gotta ask, what do you prefer the RS4 or GT2? Eitherway, that's a nice stable to have.

I miss my 996 GT3.

(Editorial Comment) - you should be changing your own oil.

You should ask in the SoCal forum, there is a list of recommended Audi specialists, mostly in LA

As a daily driver, I prefer the RS4 over the GT2, but the GT2 is vastly superior in performance. They're simply different cars for different purposes.

RS4 is the best car I've owned in terms of performance combined with practicality. The RS4 is so satisfying, that I rarely have any urge to drive the GT2 (although whenever I get into the GT2...forget about it).
