Audi getting rid of free maintenance and giving dealers the savings
Is anyone else surprised that Audi is dropping their included maintenance just when sales are really taking off, in order to increase profits? Another article states how they are trying to pass on more profits to dealers. I am surprised as hell, and I totally did not expect this. See linked articles:
