WARNING
Inadequate servicing and failure to adhere to service intervals can result in breakdowns, accidents and serious or fatal injuries.
● Service work should be carried out by a suitably qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using an authorised repairer.
Volkswagen is not responsible for any vehicle damage caused by inadequate service work or the lack of availability of parts.
The service events differ according to oil change service and inspection. The service interval display in the display of the instrument
cluster serves as a reminder for the due date of the next service event.
Either the fixed service interval or flexible service interval will be used for the oil change service, depending on the vehicle equipment,
the engine type and the operating conditions.
The engine code can be accessed via the Service menu (→ Driving data display (multifunction display)).
How do I know which type of service applies to my vehicle?
Information on the type of service that the vehicle requires can be obtained from a suitably qualified workshop. Volkswagen
recommends using an authorised Volkswagen repairer.
Point to note for the flexible service interval
With the flexible service interval, you need to have an oil change service carried out only if your vehicle requires one. To determine this
point in time, individual operating conditions and personal driving style are taken into account. An important part of the flexible service
interval is the use of LongLife engine oil instead of the conventional engine oil.
Observe and follow the information on the motor oil specification according to the VW standard .
If you do not wish to have the flexible service interval, you can opt for the fixed service interval instead. However, a fixed service
interval can affect your service costs. Your service advisor will be pleased to advise you.
Service interval display
Depending on the vehicle equipment, scheduled services for your vehicle may be displayed in the service interval display in the
instrument cluster display (→ Service interval display) and in the vehicle settings in the Infotainment system (→ Vehicle settings
menu). This service interval display provides information on services that include an oil change or inspection. When the respective
service is due, additional work that is due can also be carried out, e.g. changing brake fluid and spark plugs.
