110k service recommendations
« on: November 02, 2013, 11:51:45 am »
Morning, I have a 2005 1.9tdi sport 105 with 109k that I purchased 15 months ago.
Was serviced at 103k when I brought it, book says cam belt etc done at 95k
Seems to run fine as far as I am aware! 6 months ago had fuel temp sensor / thermostat / temp sender replaced as the temp gauge never moved off 0c ( even now it only moves to about 60c )
VCDS scanned when this work was done and the temp faults cleared and reset
Disks and pads done 2 months ago
Getting about 47mpg average each just under full tank (16 miles a day)

So....... Advice really on what I should be doing for the 110k service and any other things to keep it running nice / improving running well!

Sorry for rattling on!
Thanks in advance

I always used castrol oil on my old tdi.

Check your pollen filter,  air filter,  maybe even fuel filter too.

I have used Mobil 1 in mk4 GT TDi for the last 20k miles. The fuel economy improved a little to 55mpg and at 223k miles it still runs really well.

When you replaced the sensors did you use genuine sensors or cheap crap parts?
The cheap crap ones never work.

There's no magical work that needs carrying out at 110k... just service with PD certified 5w40 oil and genuine air, fuel and oil filters.
