Default 4.0tdi gearbox oil change

finally getting round to booking the car into our local Audi Zentrum dealer in modena. They are changing the filter, swapping the oil to the green stuff on thier own recomendation (without needing a prompt), and doing the ecu re-map too, all for the hefty sum of €700. We have a long journey from italy to southern portugal soon so wanted to make sure the gearbox would stand the constant 30 - 40deg temp we are having at the moment.

would be interesting to know the breakdown that they put on those costs ie parts and labour - the parts cant be more than 250 euros so how much is their labour and how many hours does the book say to change it all
