Do the gear box.
Depending on your location mackies seem to be the people to go.

I'm in Northern Ireland sadly.

Audi did the oil when the mechatronic unit was changed. For piece of mind ID be happy to get it done again.

Rough cost from an indie?

ZF (gearbox manufacturer) says to service you gearbox after 7 years or 100.00 miles and its better if you do it mate if you are within this figures
Ignore what Audi says

Not sure if it's hearsay or not I don't know, but Audi may have omitted the ZF gearbox service so this cost wasn't included in the overall cost of ownership. Hence making them appear a bit cheaper than Jag, BMW et al when JD Power do their comparisons.
