July 2002 Crash

Audi claims that transmission fluid and filter never needs to be changed, this is not only incorrect, but this also causes transmission problems on a regular basis. This should not be told to the customer for it is a lie just so the customer has constant transmission problems while audi racks in the money. It is a scam and it should be eliminated from potential and existing audi customers. No oil was ever made not to break down and not ever be changed.
