2013 Audi B8 RS5 Oil and Coolant Change

For the performance this car has to be one of the easiest I have worked on. OK so I have not had to do anything too complicated but so far I am enjoying it. I have also been amazed at how relatively inexpensive many of the parts/fluids are for the car. Must have something to do with sharing a parent company with VW!
