Default Audi's schedule is NEVER. I'm at 60k, and I'm gonna do it in the spring
Going to try the 'revised' lube.

Default A Boston-area tuner has seen pinion-bearings fail,
and now suggests changing the fluid every 20k, especially if chipped. Quite unlike Audi's schedule. Seems like cheap insurance to avoid a really expensive repair.

Default warranty, what's that? :-)
Never been an issue, never had any problems(knock on wood). Think I'm going to do suspension before exhaust, original shocks are feeling mushy after 60k.
