Title: Service Schedule / Interval
Post by: hd_andy on 20 May 2008, 10:22

Hi,

I was just wandering if anyone has the official VW Service schedule for the Mk3 i.e a list of what to do every 10k miles, 20k miles 30k miles etc etc

I could buy a haynes manual I guess, but I have plenty of joke books already!!

Or I guess i could go to VW, Ford printed me one out for my Focus ST170 so guessing VW might do the same?

Thanks

Andy
