Hi,

My recently bought R8 is due a service. If I lived close to RE Performance, it would be going there, but it’s a little too far away for a minor service.

Has anyone had experience of Coulsdon Audi or Epsom Audi for R8 servicing ? Or would folks recommend another Audi centre nearby ?

Any feedback would be much appreciated !

Thanks both. Yes I would prefer to take the car to Ricky but just a little far for the minor that is due. May have to just bite the bullet and go see him!

Thanks for all the great feedback and sorry for the delay in replying (have been away and only just got back). Really value the input, and have booked into Epsom Audi on the back of the views above.

is the existing SH all Audi main dealer?
Yes, all main dealer so far so have been thinking of keeping scheduled servicing to main dealers and will be using Ricky for all non-routine items and any advisory elements.

Out of curiosity, what do people generally pay for a minor (oil) service ?

Thx

Wow... that is shocking. So charged for oil service but clearly no change ? Was this a dealer in the south east?

I’ve heard great things about Ricky. Will be asking him to do some non-routine stuff that I want doing due to my OCD nature!

Interestingly, the health check on my car (carrier out by main dealer) has indicated the tyres should be replaced as the treads are 4mm !!!. I guess this is why dealers are often called stealers! smile
