Just wondering. I am thinking about diggin some info up on my vehicles service history and was thinking of calling another dealer to see if I can pull that information.

I wanted to see like parts they installed invoices for work done it etc, would I be able to do that?

Default They may be hesitant giving you the info...

I don't think they like just freely giving out that stuff...

Default You're correct on that. Get to know your service person...

There's 2 where I go and one is very secret-secret with the details, the other was very helpful with some areas of interest of my S4's past history. It's all in their "audi computer" under the VIN#.

I did before I purchased mine. They had no hesitation in pulling up the record.

A "secret" I learned about mine is the PO got a dime stuck in the ashtray and had it replaced!
