Service in 600 miles
« on: November 08, 2015, 09:56:59 am »
Morning people!
The golf flashed up yesterday saying that it will need servicing in the next 600miles. Which will be the end of this month for me but planning on getting it done earlier.

The garage I bought the car off said the last service they had donewasaoil change and filter change and also got the DSG bo serviced too, which they claimed won't need to be touched now until my car hits 110k miles.

So I know the normal stuff that will need changing in the service from doing other cars myself, but what products and what do people recommend need looking at and changing? My car has just hit around 78k

Cam follower
Check PCV
Millers nanodrive oil is the best
Brakes should be bled every 2 years (use dot 4.1)
Then the usual plugs/ coolant/ cambelt and WP etc... Depending on when they were last done

Just checked my service history and the cam belts etc where changed at 55k
So this time around would I just need to do the normal service? Plugs, oil, filters etc

Cam follower I changed when I first bought it and the PVC is fine
