I am intending on giving the old girl a service at the garage meet. Just wondered what items i would need, the last service was done at Audi at 88K, its now done 99K. I gave it an oil change about 5k ago, but i have some millers and a new filter to give it another change. The brakes have just been done so thats not needed. What other parts will i need to buy to do complete service?

Plugs i think will set you back around £60 off the top of my head, possibly bit more, not sure.
Coolant, its about £4 per 1.5 litre bottle of G12+ from GSF, so a couple of bottle of that and thats it job done.
How are the belts looking and sounding? PAS, Alternator and Aircon.
I know my PAS belt looks like ive had my money's worth and doesnt sound too nice either so that needs doing.
If you get any of these belts get them from GSF or EuroCarParts as Genuine price is silly money... something like £15 for alternator belt.... i paid around £4 for a genuine part from GSF.Ant

ah yeh, forgot bout those LOL.
I'll be doing my gearbox oil and fuel filter when i do timing belt either this weekend or next.
Gearbox oil is 2.7 litres from dry.... was meaning to ask actually, according to ETKA its a fancy 80/90 oil with some kind of additive or something, can someone confirm this is the case as the GSF 80/90 oil was what i was gonna use but now may opt for the genuine itemAnt

ok, so i need coolant i guess. not sure when the sparks were changed last, ill ask the audi dealer where it was serviced. the gearbox was rebuilt about about 2000 miles ago, i guess the gearbox oil will be ok then? diff oil, not sure about that, is that an easy job?
wipers have just been done, aero's all round.
the alternator belt is squeeky, so i might get one of those.Tim

Alternator belt i assume u mean... alternator retails at over £300!!
Changing that is a 5 min job if the aux rad is removed BTDT with and without it installed. PITA with the rad thereAnt
