Got my Gti today :)
« on: March 28, 2014, 05:11:25 pm »
Hi all, got my first golf mk5 Gti today and I love it. It's an 08 plate reflex silver 3 door with 52k miles and fsh.  Is there anything that I should be thinking of doing maintenance wise?

Just oil changes and air filters.  Done at the main dealer.
