Default Audi Care -- transferable between dealers?

Hello all. Quick question: I just got a notice regarding a prepaid 45K mile service through Audi Care. The dealer from which I bought the car is nearly 50 miles away, but there's another one just six miles down the road. Can I take the car to any dealership for service? Sure would be convenient not to mention a huge time and gas saver. Thanks in advance.

Any Audi dealer in the US, assuming you are in the US.

Thanks for the tip. San Mateo, CA. Bay Area residents will know the PITA it is getting all the way to Audi Concord from my house (bridge, tunnel, traff*ck).

And the day I picked to check out (and, ultimately, obviously, buy) the car, there was a fire in the Caldecott Tunnel, closing it down, and I had to take windy back roads to get there. Took me 90+ minutes. Yikes! There is now a fourth bore (4 lanes in each direction, 2 per tunnel) so I would have been fine. This was ONE MONTH before the new tunnel opened. Bleah.

Default Bought mine via Stevens Creek, but service via Rector

No issues at all w/ the delta between where you bought it, and where you service it. I expect you are thinking Rector for service.

To further clarify, AC is valid at any dealer within the same country where it was purchased.
