I know you guys are the most knowledgeable audi heads out there so maybe you can help me out. Like the title says; I have an b6 s4 and I have not ran the car in 6 months. Im getting ready to get her back and screaming soon. What should be the first thing I do besides adding gas to it :-) Any special procedures besides all the fluid top offs and oil change? Thanks a lot guys> I appreciate your input.

Check fluids and change oil before starting the engine... tyres might be no longer round... and cause nasty vibrations.... brake pads might need some refreshing... the battery will by dry... change it or try to charge it up. Change air filters if exposed to humidity they will no longer be good...

I would certainly change the fuel and oil filters, and put some stabilizer in the fuel tank as that gas (no matter how diluted) is no good to run unless you want to lessen the functionality of your injectors.
