Mk6 golf GTI 65k service

[Prior7]

Alright guys,

Just treated myself to a 59 plate GTI and it's due a service on 65,000 miles now. I'm just wondering what's involved in this service so I can check it has been done before I drive it away.

Replies will be much appreciated

Service should have been done @60k mate. Has that one been done?

If so, 60k is one of the big ones and it pretty much includes everything. Sparks, Brake fluid, oil, all fiters etc...

Check service book and make sure all has been done.

Surely that would depend on whether it had been on a fixed or variable service plan in the past?

I'm just about to book mine in for it's 40k service which again I'm told is a big one, not sure whether it differs from a 60k?

Anyway about to book mine in with: http://www.lincoln-vw.co.uk/

Full Major Service + MOT will set me back £249 cash.

Yeah that seems a fair price, just try blag a 1 liter bottle of oil as top up.

Thanks for the replies fellas,

The garage is doing the service for me, the main thing I wanted to know was whether the timing chain would get changed in this service but thy have said it won't be but they can do it at cost for me, do you think it would pay me to get it done now before it's too late? haha I've read the horror stories

[Snoopy]

Find out the cost first  but I would for peace of mind if nothing else.

Is it strange that I ask for sparks/brake fluid/oil/filters to be changed every time I get my car serviced?
