Seems you can buy them second hand for decent money
   Might be worth me doing.. aswell as full A8 servicing ect might be worth me learning how to use this and do it on my own cars first ..

You mean I cannot phone up my local Audi dealer and say:
"Hello, I have an Audi A8 D3 can you please service the gearbox and carry out the requirements in Technical Service Bulletin 2013023/1 please" "Of Course sir that will be £150 and we will supply an R8 courtesy car for you"

Daviesbike, That's the unit.
What's the prices are they going for? Sir WIll, nope. Apparently Audi do not and will not service out gearboxes. Since the main dealers are franchises they can do it off their own back with no back up from Audi. I'm going to print that technical service bulletin out and take it to Audi and see what they say. EDIT: Reading it, its Audi of America, I doubt that will have any standing for the UK side of it?

I emailed Tetbury Audi this morning for a quote to service the gearbox and also requested the work was carried out in line with the TSB.
Be interesting to see what they come back with, if its yes and a reasonable amount then off to Audi it will go. If not the old girl can go for a standard fluid change at the local VAG Specialist.
