- spark plugs every 55K miles
- serpentine belts at 75K
- oil changes every 10K
- one window regulator
- valve cover gaskets at 80K

That's pretty much it. Audi's from about 2003+ are pretty similar to BMW's of that era in terms of reliability and cost to maintain / repair. Meaning neither are cheap!
