Default Should I take A6 to dealer for Oil Change?
How do most people on this forum deal with oil changes? Is dealer the best, to keep it all on record, or just any corner oil shop good enough? I guess I could do my own too. Thoughts?

DIY....is very simple, takes maybe an hour and you know you've done it the correct way :-)

There are plenty of specialist independent shops in Germany and numerous other countries but if you live in Egypt then your options maybe limited.
Maybe putting your location under your logon name would eliminate the need for ambiguous questions and answers?

Just get the right tools and do it yourself. So easy with a MightyVac.

Depends... The market competition dictates pricing for such services... My local dealer does oil changes for about $120.

Try picking up a phone or looking online for an oil change pricing by your local dealers
