That's what they told me too. Might be true if you run up 15Tkm/year. Most manufacturers require 5Tkm/6 mos. or 10Tkm/1 year di ba? If you do a lot less, more expensive.

The in-between 7500 km or 6-month checkup is free of charge unless you have specific services done or parts to be replaced.

Maybe also due to their sub-premium positioning? Still, as JJB said, not bad since you only have to pay up once a year.

The only thing I'd be worried about is the DCT fluid interval and cost. Wonder if it's as expensive as CVT fluid.

If only they had a normal sized van...

Come to think of it, with VW around locally, Audi owners can bring their rides to VW for servicing. Audi cars share the same platform and engines as VW cars.

Not sure though how much it costs to service an Audi at their dealerships but I don't think it's cheaper than VW local rates.

Consumables most likely are the same but for Audi for sure they will ask for more because of premium positioning.

Just checked some Motul sellers and DCTF is more expensive than ATF or CVTF. But it seems CVTs use more fluid?

The X-trail's CVT requires around 8L of fluid while the (last gen) Tiguan requires only around 5L.

Grabe lakas mantaga ng service.

Yung iba malakas loob kasi charge to company naman

Gusto ko makita if madami bibili volks na personally owned.
