AUDI SERVICING IN WIMBORNE DIGITAL SERVICE RECORD MAINTAINED
Keeping your Audi service record up to date is essential for maintaining your manufacturer warranty and protecting resale value. At Langs Automotive, our dealer-grade diagnostic equipment gives us direct access to Audi’s digital service system — meaning every service we carry out is logged onto your vehicle’s official Audi service record, exactly as it would be at a main dealer.
We service the full Audi range, including the A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, Q2, Q3, Q5, Q7, Q8, TT and e-tron models. Whether you need an interim oil service, a full annual service, or a major mileage milestone service, we follow Audi’s manufacturer schedule using genuine or OEM parts. For high-performance Audi Sport models including the RS range and R8, we have a dedicated Audi RS and R8 specialist service covering the unique requirements of these vehicles.

AUDI DIAGNOSTICS – MAIN DEALER EQUIPMENT LOCAL GARAGE PRICES
Modern Audis are sophisticated machines packed with electronic control units governing everything from engine management and DSG/S-tronic gearbox behaviour to adaptive suspension, ADAS, and infotainment. When a fault appears, generic OBD scanners simply can’t read deep enough to identify the cause.
At Langs Automotive, we use main-dealer-level diagnostic equipment with full Audi/VAG protocol access. That means we can:
- Read and clear Audi-specific fault codes across all modules
- Code and programme replacement components
- Reset service intervals and update the digital service record
- Diagnose intermittent faults that other garages have missed
- Carry out ADAS recalibration following windscreen or component replacement
If your Audi has a warning light on, a fault that’s been misdiagnosed elsewhere, or a complaint that’s hard to pin down, our vehicle diagnostics service will get to the root cause first time.
COMMON AUDI FAULTS WE FIX
Years of working on Audis means we know the recurring issues across the range. Here are some of the faults we resolve regularly:
TFSI Carbon Build-Up Direct-injection TFSI engines (1.4, 1.8, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0) suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves over time, causing rough idle, misfires, hesitation and reduced economy. Our walnut blasting service removes the deposits without dismantling the engine.
DSG / S-Tronic Gearbox Issues Jerky shifts, slipping, mechatronic faults and shuddering on take-off are common on DSG and S-tronic gearboxes that haven’t had regular oil services. We carry out full gearbox oil and filter services on both wet and dry-clutch DSG units.
EGR & DPF Faults on TDI Diesels Audi TDI diesels can develop EGR valve sticking, DPF blockages and AdBlue system faults — particularly on cars used mainly for short journeys. We diagnose, clean, regenerate and replace as required.
Wet Belt Failures Certain Audi engines including the 1.0 TFSI and later 1.5 TFSI use a “wet belt” running in oil. These have a finite lifespan and failure causes catastrophic engine damage. We carry out preventative wet belt replacement before failure occurs.
Suspension & Air Suspension Faults Audi A6, A7, A8, Q7 and Q8 models with adaptive air suspension can develop air strut leaks and compressor failures. We diagnose, repair and replace using OEM components.
Electrical & Coding Faults From window regulator failures to MMI faults, key coding and component adaptation, our diagnostic kit handles the lot.
We service the entire Audi range, including:
- Hatchbacks & saloons: A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8
- SUVs: Q2, Q3, Q4 e-tron, Q5, Q7, Q8
- Coupés & cabriolets: TT, TT Roadster, A5 Coupé, A5 Cabriolet
- Electric & hybrid: e-tron, e-tron GT, Q4 e-tron, plug-in hybrid TFSI e variants
- Audi Sport (RS & R8): Covered in detail on our dedicated Audi RS & R8 specialist page
EVERY AUDI, EVERY MODEL SERVICED AT LANGS
AUDI RS, R8 & SPORT SPECIALIST
If you drive an Audi Sport model — whether that’s an RS3, RS4, RS5, RS6, RS7, RS Q3, RS Q8, R8 or TT RS — your servicing requirements are different. Larger oil capacities, performance-grade lubricants, twin air filters on V8 models, and tighter tolerances on brake and suspension components all mean these vehicles need a specialist who understands the platform.
We’ve built a dedicated Audi RS & R8 specialist service with model-specific pricing for every RS variant and the R8 V10 — from RS3 oil services through to full R8 servicing.
AUDI SERVICING ACROSS DORSET & HAMPSHIRE
Our Wimborne workshop is conveniently located on Woolsbridge Industrial Estate, Three Legged Cross — easily reached from Bournemouth, Poole, Ringwood, Verwood, Ferndown, Christchurch, Blandford, Salisbury and across the New Forest. Many Audi drivers travel to us from Audi Bournemouth, Audi Poole and Audi Salisbury main dealer catchments because they want the same standard of work without the dealer overheads.

AUDI SERVICING FAQ’S

Audi recommends servicing on a fixed schedule — typically every 12 months or 10,000 miles for an interim service, and every 24 months or 20,000 miles for a major service.

Audi cambelt and water pump replacement at Langs Automotive starts from £450, depending on the engine. Audi typically recommends replacement at 100,000 miles or 5 years, whichever comes first. Failure to replace on schedule can cause catastrophic engine damage costing thousands to repair.
Walnut blasting is a process for removing carbon build-up from the back of the intake valves on TFSI direct-injection engines. Symptoms include rough idle, misfires, loss of power and reduced economy. We recommend walnut blasting every 40,000 miles on affected engines. See our full walnut blasting service for details.

WHAT OUR AUDI CUSTOMERS SAY
EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a nervous user of garages (due to past poor experiences), I was pleasantly surprised about the high level of service Rob Lang provided with our Mk6 golf GTD, which wouldn't start, and was marooned on our driveway. He had it recovered to his premises within hours, and his technician diagnosed and solved several electrical problems (synonymous with a car of this age) and some needing replacement parts, plus he gave it full service and MOT (and valet). We've had this car since new and were considering chopping it in, as you do when "old car" costs start mounting up. It now drives like when it was new and so will be reprieved. Rob then delivered the car to our house because we couldn't collect it for several days more. We can't thank him enough. I definitely recommend Lang's Automotive - his premises is professional looking - very clean and tidy with high tech equipment. His prices are fair and much better than a main dealer I suspect (and very importantly he kept us in the loop). He looks busy too which is always a good sign!! Thanks again Rob and your team, really very impressed!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Got my car fully serviced yesterday, and was pleased with the thorough detail and information the team gave me. Nice office, clean unit and overall welcoming experience.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing service, from start to finish the team were professional and explained everything. The knowledge and speed were second to none. Our car was fixed, serviced and unexpectedly cleaned within the timeframe quoted. They are not local to me but happy to travel for an excellent experience. Thank you.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Proper garage, sorted out my range rover electrical issues last week, MOT this week, informed me of failures, sorted within a day, advised on additional issues which they also repaired on the same Day. Reasonable price, and will be definitely use again. Can't fault them.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a breath of fresh air! Having a problem with Audi RS6 suspension and when I called Rob Lang he booked me in same day to investigate. Although they was unable to fix the problem (hydraulic high pressure pipe burst - requiring a special Audi tool to repressurise the system) they identified the problem and also gave the car a good general inspection while it was up on the lift. All this and no charge! Super friendly, very knowledgeable and I will be happy to get future routine servicing done by Langs from now on.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having just purchased an Iveco Daily van That had a few issues that needed to be rectified. I used an Iveco dealership who surprisingly did not completely fix the problems. I met Rob and his team of experienced Engineers. I was extremely impressed by their knowledge and expertise. They have identified the cause of all the outstanding problems and are now involved in the process of sourcing parts to effect repairs. This is a company who know what they are doing from an engineering point of view and their customer service skills are top-notch. I would recommend them to anyone.

I was in a really tight spot with poor workmanship from another company, this was sorted out quickly and efficiently without any acromony and everything made perfect. All the stress was taken out of the siutation for me, which was invaluable. I cannot rate this company highly enough and recomend them to lots of friends and colleagues.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
