Well we just had our A2’s first Variable Service at 29600 miles because the 2 years Max interval is up.
We phoned for quotes as well as looking through here to see what was the expected price, issues & problems and the quality of service that all you other A2 Owners had experienced from Audi and other Garages.
We ended up at Sheppards VW of Bishops Stortford (they were Audi many years ago and are just across the road from where my Wife works, which makes things soooo much easier) and they were over £100 less than Stansted Audi just up the road.

Brake Fluid Change Labour £29.80 £35.02
Programme Central Locking £20.00 £23.50
Screen Wash £3.15 £3.70

Clean Seats £12.77 £15.00
Totals £273.89 £321.82
(sorry about the alignment!!)
The service at Sheppards would have been £230, but with all the extra Brake Fluid Change, Auto Central Locking Programming and Cleaning of the Front seat it came to £321 using all the proper VAG parts. They appear to have done a thorough service, gave the car a good clean and gave us the bill in a nice cardboard folder!!
The only problem is that they could not fix the Ashtray under warranty (that has lost its ability to self open in a nice controlled manner), we have to visit an Audi Stealer for this.
The Variable Service indicator is showing only 9300 till next service, but from other threads I have just read I hope that this will sort its self out based on our driving.
So all in all not a bad job and I try to justify the bill by dividing it by two.
I will be using them again and would recommend Sheppards VW to other Audi owners, but looking at the A2 Google Map, there are not many A2 owners in the area!!
