How Much Did My First Audi RS7 Service Cost?

Instagram: @eddiex616
I took my RS7 in for its first service! Oil change and alignment were the two main things, which actually come with completely variable costs depending on the vehicle. I also had a feeling I needed new brakes, so I had the thickness of my rotors and pads measured. Find out how much the first service costs, I will be tracking the total ownership costs of this car and sharing it with you guys! Giving you another glimpse into what its like to live with and own an Audi RS7!

Learned my lesson with an A5. Being young and dumb i took it to the dealership for service. A check engine code had popped up and the dealer quoted me 3500 to replace injectors because 3 of them were leaking. That sounded odd to me so I decided to take it to a local shop that worked on german performance cars. Out of curiosity i looked at the inspection sheet to see what i had paid 200 bucks for. Turns out Audi charges .2 hours of labor for "tire removal". In short they charged me 45 bucks to take off tires. That was when the lightbulb went on. Sold the car and will never look back.

Eddie you are doing a great job of scaring me away from the used RS7 idea I have been entertaining. Price point is in my wheel house, but scary maintenance bills if I drive it hard.

Back to the ZL1 listings I go .. lmao who needs a real back seat

[@msport4769]

Hey Eddie, did you do a PPI before you bought the car? Did the dealership disclose this to you as you were buying it? Seems kind of shady considering you just bought the car from them as they sold you a car with bare minimum specs brakes. I would’ve negotiated and discounted the brake job from the asking price. I say this because the dealership didn’t tell you about the cracked front diffuser either, right? Also did you get the service records? Seems kind of odd that the original owner would buy the maintenance plan and not use any of it. I mean isn’t that like $1000 extra? Also how do you use your plan up if it’s at 10K mile service intervals and you want to do it at 5K mile intervals? I got my BMW just before they got rid of the free 4 year included maintenance and they would not let you use the oil change credit if it was more than 1000 miles of the scheduled mileage. It was called conditioned based service. So if you drive 5K miles per year you get your oil change in 2 years. Also you mentioned you bought the brake pads from Advance Auto Parts. For the RS 7? And is the Service Department willing to do the service for labor only? Just curious. Sorry for all the questions! Loved the cold start BTW!

You can perform the update without the new turbos or vacuum units. If you do, replace the breather/oil separator when doing it because it is a common failure point. Not so much on the later years but good maint when apart.

[@jordanbanko5347]

Hey Eddie! Love the video. I did a ton of research on the RS7 because I was originally considering getting one but not sure atm. Was just on Audizine checking for you and some people had great luck with going on eBay and getting the RS7 Front rotors and pads new. I just found front rotors and pads for $1,129.92 on eBay which is quite a deal and could really save you some dough especially if you get it put on by a 3rd party. Just a suggestion. Hopefully you find another way not to spend $5k on brakes! That’s just crazy for such a low mileage car if it hasn’t been abused. I guess it really comes down to weight. Nonetheless, look forward to hearing what you’re going to do! Cheers 🥂

[@EddieX]

Appreciate the comment! I have all the parts sourced for extremely good prices already, just needed rear rotors. Definitely not going to pay full dealer price for them.

[@jordanbanko5347]

Draknight That’s very true! Since my comment, I found out about FCP Euro. They sell OEM parts with a lifetime guarantee! Even if you wear out your pads and rotors, all you have to do is buy another pair and send them back to get a full refund. Pretty sweet!

[@jordanbanko5347]

Draknight honestly, I’m a little worried. I loved the C7/7.5 gen so much and am not as much of a fan of the new A6 or the A7. Hopefully the RS models look better.

Yes, if you make an accident and while examining the damage and its cause the insurance comes to the conclusion that the accident could have been prevented by stopping in a shorter distance/quicker or if they find out that the braking discs played a role in the accident, they will do anything to put the guilt on you and make you pay for it.

@@user-he7sc3fg3r it depends. Service is in euro about 200. But the insurance is enough. For full not half it is about 1800 euro

[@335i101]

Is it typical for the brakes to be shot at this mileage? Or you think previous owner beat the hell out of them...?

[@EddieX]

I've read of it happening on lots of RS7 and S7s in the 20-30k mileage range.

[@335i101]

EddieX Dang, that is rough

[@derrickg5612]

Did it take them 5 days to perform the service?

[@EddieX]

3 days. Car also had an alignment and they were checking the heads up display.

[@seamuslewin4325]

That’s a long time! if you had an appointment that’s not really an acceptable time frame in my mind..

[@user-hs7wg3rv5i]

EddieX the car is fairly new and it need an alignment already. Wtf. Dude it a fokin money pit

[@Mrlolibre]

@@user-hs7wg3rv5i age of the vehicle isn't a major determining factor of realignment. Driving conditions, potholes, crapppy roads etc. messes up alignment.

[@Dave-wp1ye]

@seamus you obviously don’t know the ins and outs of a dealers service area. More so a high line dealer. Every dealer schedules accordingly if everything runs smoothly. No service area runs smooth first of all, second every car comes in and customers add all sorts of bullshit complaints squeaks rattles to chase down which no techs make money off of, third cars that get additional work upsold on it takes longer than expected, fourth you have all the no appointments that walk in the door and emergency appointments and tow ins. So all that factors in to getting cars done, yes you have an appointment but there’s about 100 other factors the service department has to account for and try helping out everyone to keep everyone happy. As long as you have transportation let them do their thing and make it right don’t rush them.

I have a 2018 A5 cabriolet with 25,000 miles on it. Car rides like a cloud, and only 3 oil changes at $150.00 each at an independent shop that works on Porches and VW. Did have the dreaded thermostat leak and that cost me $400 deductible from my extended coverage. Love this car and so do my two puppies…Grandpa Bill, Austin, Tx

[@cleanasdirt6832]

Just had a oil change on my 2017 Audi A6 competition V6. $195 Cdn. I don’t use the dealership, I have a independent mechanic shop that I use for my Porsche as well as my Audi.🇨🇦

[@keemoblk]

try some BG stop squeal you apply it to the pad side that comes in contact with the rotor works great

[@AbduulG]

Not impressed with the video. I expected the price of the oil change too but u have some Audi contract thing so your title is very misleading. We want to know the price of regular service without any ‘special’ care from the dealer.

[@missabella1235]

5K for the front rotor and pad?

[@Coopjab]

And here I am thinking that my GTI oil chance at the dealer was high. For that much money I could do a ton of mods and still have enough to spare for rims.

[@brolyv5802]

Jabari more money in your pocket and maybe a Rolex or two.

[@arabiantxn]

Mine e63 amg s has 106k miles on it and, i do think it was relatively cheaper to maintain and none of the parts went bad on it Update: Service A runs you about 275 Service B runs you about 515 Here in Dallas, Parkplace md in dtown dallas

[@amgnaciri5937]

is the face-lifted model or the newer one ?

[@arabiantxn]

@@amgnaciri5937 Its the 14 and up facelifted one with the W212 bodystyle and M157 engine s varrient. I got mime with the 120 warranty on it but i haven't the need to use it. The only I will say is a little of road noise. Mine is completely stock except for rentech exhaust and BMC airfilters

[@amgnaciri5937]

@@arabiantxn ahhh so it uses the 5.5 litre biturbo engine , is it 4matic ? or just rear wheel drive only

[@arabiantxn]

@@amgnaciri5937 I think most of 2014 and up W212 sold with the facelift were the S varrients the E63-S models had a higher boost stock heee 12 psi and with increased boost it was 14 pai and they're 4matic within 70back and 30 front split. Myncar has been rock solid 0 issues. however. Ride quality comfort, handeling andnroad noise are the only 3 areas where it couldn't been better.

[@av8743]

Arabiantxn get cls63s, it has better handling and everything else the same. Facelift for cls63 was in 2015, same facelift as e63. Also it looks much nicer.

[@Jesus-eb8yk]

I wonder how much does my 2004 Ford Focus maintaince cost...... mmm

[@dj1809]

Shouldn't the dealer from which you bought the car have disclosed the brake/rotor wear? It could have been used for additional negotiation on the sale price.

[@seamuslewin4325]

Chris Kim is this a joke?? That’s how you go out of business...

[@dj1809]

@@seamuslewin4325 I would argue it's a way to build a successful long-term business. Transparency and developing trust are key to earning repeat business especially when it comes to selling luxury goods. Making the sale at all costs for the immediate gain is extremely short-sighted in my opinion. Be honest here... after watching this video, would you buy a car from the dealership that sold Eddie his car?

[@EddieX]

I had the PPI done and knew it was getting a bit low. Dealer wouldn't lower price anymore and I wanted to buy the car so I went with it.

[@been2damoon660]

This video makes me want to get a Honda and not kill the wallet.

[@HristovRumen]

At 6mm, brake pads are practically new given that they start at around 8mm and the low limit is about 2. Brakes get noisy if they have been overheated and glazed. The pads are then easy to fix by removing them and runing a fine course sand paper on them a few times to deglaze. The rotors are usually fine, unless they have been blued by heat or turned to mirror glaze. If they have been damaged, they need replacing. But same deal with rotors. A service limit of .4 and being at .8 is practically still mid life.

[@edgehodl4832]

Why????? Is this all really necessary??? I been driving Camry for forever, never paid more than 300 for brakes.

[@mauriciovelez1878]

Ahhh only have 22.000 miles and already need all this...my acura have 100.000 and only change oil and brakes
