Note:6 speeds have more room to work than than the A4's - and per the tech notes, watch for the gas falling ^#@!!

Should I wait a while before I change it?

I know I won't be changing mine again any time soon!

You should be able to get 50K out of it easy. The filter on a '00 is located along the frame rail, Driver's side in front of the rear wheel. You need a tool to remove it, and you can get it at an auto parts store.

I changed mine at about 60k and WOW what a difference. I bought the car with 33k on it and only put in the highest octane available. Changed it because my mileage was getting pretty poor and it felt sluggish. Made a huge difference
