Ave been using mobil 1 for years or my last audi's and just thought i would stick with it. its not due a service for another 10k miles on the long life plan. but was just gonna change the oil myself in the meantime for some peace of mine. The car gets a bit of a hard life haha

Broonie - if your car does get a hard life, then there are considerably better oils than Mobil 1 (which is NOT fully synthetic).
