Your A service details should be shown in your service booklet. Usually an oil & oil filter change, interior cabin filter, fluids top up plus an overall inspection.

A5 service as far as I know is your 5th A service.

C300
Just had an A5 at westminster colorado mb at 44,000 miles

it cost me $225 plus taxes and was as follows according to the bill sheet

oil and filter change
battery test/service
starting/charging system test
lubrication service (door strickers,hood hinges,seat slides and sunroof tracks
cooling system pressure test and inspection
bulb inspection int and ext
inspect/adjust windshield wipers
rotate tyres,check pressures/abnormal wear
check undercarriage for wear/debris
add moa motor oil additive
brake system inspection fluid/pads..rotor condition and lines
visual inspection of suspension and steering components
road test
reset service reminder light
and that was on the 21st Jan 2013

I hope that helps

** the moa oil additive is like seafoam , magic oil etc and just another oil additive which seems odd given that there was nothing wrong with the car engine and the oil was quality mobil 1 formula synthetic oil

had I known in advance i would have said no to the moa as mobil 1 doesn't need an oil additive...it was $13.61 plus taxes

If you don't want moa added tell them before they start on the car

Sylus,
How can I get the Vaccum pump to carry out Oil change by myself. I saw it in one of the videos you sent to me last time. Thanks.
