Audi S8 oil change service cost?

[Blown2CV]

Just taken delivery of my new S8, and loving it so far! Boring administrative question though... how much does a standard oil change service cost? I've opted for the full variable oil change service interval, and I have the car for 2 years and 20k miles. So, I am guessing I _could_ have to pay for 2 oil change services and will have to pay for one (19k mile) inspection. I am really struggling to find prices online and consequently it's pretty difficult to really nail down whether it's worth it to get the £350 service plan... although I am almost certain it is, if I will need the 3 visits as described. Anyone know true facts? Ta

This could give you a rough indication of servicing costs.

It's definitely worth paying the £350 for 2 services.

first thing that page says is vehicles over 3 years old.

slight concern is that I think it's a condition of the plan that you buy it in advance of taking delivery of the car.... oops!

Sorry yeah fixed priced servicing applies to cars which are over 3 year's old i.e. outside of the warranty period where the owner doesn't necessarily need to take it to an Audi mind dealer.

Servicing for newer cars will be a lot more expensive.

I guess you didn't read discussion in S8 thread. It was mentioned at least couple of times. Depending on driving type (short or long trips) you should get away with one oil service and one inspection service. As mentioned in other thread, my oil service will be in around 8200 miles when car will have around 15500 miles. I do rather longer trips of minimum 20 miles, sometimes up to 1000 miles.
