You do not need to do T-belt at 60K. I did mine at 80K service. Recommended is 100K from Audi.

Default timing belt isnt part of the 60K service, but we recommend it anytime after 60...

60K would include oil /filter change, air filter, pollen filter, spark plugs, brake flush, tire rotation, and general check up

Default Check my signature for the recommended maintenance schedule...

...from Bentley Publishers.

60k on a timing belt sounds early unless you suspect a problem.

40k is too long, especially if you are chipped.
