My dad had an Audi a6
Tried several times to get the dealer and independents to change the ATF fluid. Dealer said no, it was 'lifetime'
Independents did not want the hassle associated with doing it on that vehicle. at 155K miles a bad shift flare began.
While the vehicle was in otherwise immaculate condition, replacing the TX would have cost 3x the bluebook price of the vehicle.
Lifetime indeed, it caused the end of its life.
He replaced it with a leased Cadilliac but preferred the Audi
