It's not bad advice if you read the whole sentence - I said don't buy it UNLESS you are happy to be tied into servicing by Audi for any little thing that you might otherwise use an independant garage for.

They will only price match an independent if you get a specific quote for your vehicle in writing - an advertised price on a web site for example for an air-con re-gas they will refuse to match.

There are other warranty options but on balance for this year with the 2 year service plan we're likely to buy the extra £45 to have the air-con and brake fluid done over an independant pale into insignificance to the quote we had from Warranty Direct which was about double the official extended warranty.

Regarding having work done, Audi will price match any independent, too. Anyway, Ian won't keep it long enough for warranty renewal anyway.
