@Navydoc - you should try and push on your local Audi dealer to see if they can /will do it.
Some (Audi) might do a basic oil/filter change, but I'm not certain that they can reset your car's service reminder light, because they don't have the official Lamborghini LDAS/LARAS diagnostic equipment at the Audi dealer.Quote:

Hi Navydoc, alternative possible solution. Like you I have to travel in UK for nearest dealer, not quite as far admittedly. Its annual service so only one day a year. Contact dealer and arrange proper replacement vehicle for the day, I managed a brand new 560 when I took my 520, perhaps a Spyder would be good now. Book a great hotel/show/restaurant and take your wife/mistress/partner of choice. Go on a Friday or Monday and make a long weekend of it...Enjoy!
Annual complete service is not a perfect science, you're really paying for the amount of hours being worked on the car and needed replacement parts which carries from car to car and the tools the dealer has, so some audi dealers don't have the gear to service a Lambo and most of their techs only see Audi tts all day and don't want the liability if they screw up
I had a yearly service at $650, the car was at 7k or so. I just had the dealership do an oil change and I negotiated down to $350 plus tax. We have a Lamborghini private shop nearby, so I used that as negotiating leverage.
The service and support at our dealership is exceptional, happy to pay a little tax but $650 for an oil change is too much. I think the first annual service would be reasonable at $400.
Correct,you can get Lambo to do the oil and filter for around 400.00 if they like you enough or they are not busy.I have done it.The H is NOT a easy oil change,I would not go to a Audi Dealer or private shop if the car is new or under warranty. If they do it wrong( to much oil,not enough oil etc) and your motor blows you are screwed, they will not warranty the car. The motor in that car has to be at least 40 or 50,000.00 Dollars...
That is is big change to take for a couple hundred dollars...
But, the Audi R8 is essentially the same exact motor as a Huracan; how could an Audi dealer screw it up? They are not amateurs.Quote:

Recalls/Service
Campaigns are Trans,AC ,Engine Management and Instrument Cluster Software updates and a couple of external cover replaced.All worked well...
I am sure Audi can can the oil on a H fine ,the only issue is you had a problem with the motor,Lambo may refuse to fix it..
