How can i tell if my car is set to longlife service or standard time Distance ?

I was told it was set to longlife but i've done 1200 miles and it reckons i'm going to need a service in 8100 miles.

Also should i be able to buy the £250 30,000 mile service pack if i'm set to longlife service ?

That's only 9.5k miles between services (it's calibrated in km), which is firmly T&D territory.   :nerd:

Unless you do loads of miles each day on motorways, stick with T&D; it's far better for the engine and it can work out cheaper

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?
