Service Time
« on: 16 November 2006, 13:17 »
 :cry: I left for work last month with 5600 mile till next service.
Come home this month and it tells me it's needing a service even though only a couple of hundred miles done by the missus whilst i was away
There is 9500 miles on the clock and it is set for the long interval servicing
It is about 20 months old
Does this sound normal

I am on long service and mines went after 14 months and 11500 miles :sick:.

vw state it has to do with the type of trips you undertake, longer trips meaning more miles before service.

£220 for my service

This is correct YES

The servicing has been activated by TIME not MILES  :wink:
