A6 C6 3.0T servicing

[Babw]

I'm due a service "inspection" on my 2010 A6 avant with the 3.0 supercharged engine. It's just passed 40k miles.

This is my first Audi so trying to get an idea of what's needed and what it could benefit from even though the service guide may suggest it's not needed.

In the service book there are oil change intervals for the multitronic and S-tronic but not for the tiptronic.

Would I be a bit premature to change the plugs at my mileage?

The tiptronic is sealed for life according to Audi, so no oil changes. ZF say change it after 70k.

We normally recommend doing the plugs early as they tend to get fouled up and filthy a fair bit before the 60k intervals. Couldn't hurt to pull one and have a look (they're quite easily accessible on that engine).

If the car is a keeper do the box oil at ZF's interval rather than Audi's 'never'.

Thank you for the input.

I've been considering getting it remapped, would upgrading the plugs + coils to the R8 versions be a worthwhile investment?
