You think you've driven fewer miles than the car is showing?

How many miles do you think you've done?

Yes i think the car has done less miles than its saying? Also the car was saying it needed a oil inspection/change at about 4000 miles? When i called audi they said it might be a glich and they would reset it? It just doesnt feel right?

Just drive at 60 for 5 mins and see if you add 5 miles.

How old is it? Depending on setting of service intervals (long life or normal) it will indicate a service very 12- 24 months whatever the mileage.

Dec 2020? Maybe the PDI was done just before the lockdown in March 20 and it sat around since.

Or Dec 19 ? If that's the case it will be due now.
