FWIW, ZF Dortmund is the recommended place in german forums to get your automatic serviced.
Common schedule is 80k-100k kilometers by those in the know.
Pricewise it seems always to be in the 500€ range and it is way more extensive than a quick lube at Audi's for the same money. Everybody is happy with the service.

I plan to check in at 120k kilometers next year, as my trannsmission already had 2 regular oil changes (which drain a lot less oil) due to a complaint of the 1st owner and persuasive talking during negotiation on my behalf .
The salesman gave me the usual lifetime filling crap when I collected the car, but he stood to his word an made the mechanics change the oil.
