V5 Service Query
« on: 04 April 2008, 08:46 »
Hi. I have a 53 reg V5 Auto which has been following the longlife service regime. The next service is due at 92,000 miles or on December 1st 2008, although the computer is telling me a service is due now at about 85,000 miles. Should I ignore the computer and get a service as scheduled, or should I do as the computer tells me????

Confused.

Simon.

I would go and check it with the dealer...  Does the car need to be told that it's on long service intervals?  it just knows its done X miles so is due a service...
Sold the VR6... Now officially An Old Man With A Passat Estate.  At least it's a 1.8T :grin:

They normally work on time or mileage which ever comes first . i.e. one service a year.
