Audi "miles until next service" button...
Discussion
I did search so apologies if this is a re-post.
I just had my A4 serviced (by Audi, I know, waste of money but if anything wrong it was still under warranty).
Pressing the nice spanner button on the dash now shows "--- miles remaining until next service".
Rather than "20,000 miles remaining until next service".
Is that right? Do the miles not show up until you are closer to needing a service? Why not just show the number?

are you aware that you don't have to take a car to a main dealer to maintain the warranty? as long as the car is serviced in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations, using OEM parts your warranty is still valid
Sleep envy - I wasn't worried about maintaining the warranty, I am just exceptionally lazy. If anything was wrong then it would most likely have been covered by the warranty which IIRC has to be then rectified by the main dealer.
So for the c.£40 difference in servicing costs I just wanted to take the car to one place (the main dealer) who could then sort everything in one go.
I have never had a car with a warranty before so perhaps anyone can fix it and then bill Audi, in which case I am both lazy and a muppet who should have just taken it to the local indi.
