By the book, it's the same as the mk5 - VW Quantum / Castrol Edge 5W30. Millers Nanodrive 5W40 is better though - I'll move onto that when warranty is up

Just want to confirm a few things.

First of all the car has only had 1 service and it's got 9600 miles on it. They have recommend long life service, which is due next year. Are mk7 owners doing the same or service it every year, no matter what the milleage.

I have seen this oil and it's cheaper then my local TPS, just want to confirm this is the right one.

Many thanks in advance.
