Audi service history check — official dealer records

Type the car's VIN into the form on this page. We ask Audi's dealer system for every visit logged against that car and show them in date order, usually within a few minutes. It costs €12.99, and the card is only charged if records come back.

Audi sits in our Full Service History tier. Itemised dealer records: the date of each franchised visit, the odometer reading, what was done and which dealer did it.

Audi's service records run on the Volkswagen Group dealer management system (ELSA / DISS / Audi Workshop System), shared with VW, Skoda, SEAT and Cupra at the data layer.

Each visit a franchised Audi workshop logged against the car, listed by date: the odometer reading, the work carried out and the dealer who did it. Recall and warranty visits appear alongside routine servicing.

Usually because the servicing was done at independent garages, which don't write to Audi's system, or because it was done before the dealer network kept digital records. A book full of independent stamps can be perfectly genuine; it just has to be backed by the paperwork rather than by the dealer system. If we find nothing, your card isn't charged.

No. The VIN is all we need: no log-in, no ownership documents and no contact with the seller. That's why people use it before they buy, to compare what the seller says with what Audi's dealers recorded.

Put the dates and readings side by side and look at the spacing. Audi runs two regimes, and which one applies is set per car. Intervals differ by engine and model year, so the handbook has the exact figure for a given car. A gap much longer than the schedule is worth asking the seller about: it may have been an independent service with an invoice in the folder, or it may have been missed.

Sometimes, if you are the keeper. A Audi dealer will often print the history at the service desk if you bring the car's documents, and some Audi owner apps show recent visits for the car linked to your account. Neither helps a buyer looking at someone else's car, and we know of no public Audi website that shows the whole record. Our €12.99 check needs only the VIN, and the card is only charged if records are found.

Yes. Audi maintains comprehensive digital service records across all UK franchised dealerships through the VW Group dealer system. Every service visit, including dates, mileage, schedule type (Longlife or Fixed) and line items, is logged electronically.

Yes. Enter your Audi's registration number and we will retrieve the full official service history from Audi's manufacturer system, including all franchised dealer visits, recall work, and warranty repairs.

All Audi models serviced at franchised franchised dealerships are covered, including A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, Q2, Q3, Q4 e-tron, Q5, Q7, Q8, TT, R8, e-tron, e-tron GT, and all RS / S performance models.

Longlife servicing uses an oil-quality sensor and stretches services to up to 29,000-30,600 km or 2 years. Fixed servicing is a hard 14,500-16,100 km / 12-month cap. Both are valid — but you need to know which schedule was used to interpret the service-interval pattern in the record correctly.

No. The myAudi app shows a customer-facing summary of recent services for newer cars. Older entries, recall work, and warranty repairs may not appear in the app even when they're in the dealer system. A dealer-system lookup is the authoritative record.

Audi quattro models use a Haldex coupling that needs an oil change every 3 years on current (Gen 4/5) couplings. It's the single most-skipped Audi service item at independents. Dealer records will show whether this has been done correctly — without it, the Haldex coupling can fail at expense.

Yes. The service record is held against the VIN by Audi UK / the VW Group, not against the customer. When ownership transfers, the new owner can access the same dealer history through any franchised Audi dealer or via a service like this one.

Audi resale value is sensitive to documented Full Service History, particularly on the A4, A6 and Q5. A stamped-up FSH typically adds 10-15% to trade-in value over partial-history equivalents. For high-mileage TDI diesels in particular, dealer history is the strongest signal of good engine and DPF care.
