what engine and gearbox? diesel ? auto 6 speed/ DSG 7 speed? all wheel drive or front? cambelt should have been done at 105k....VDUB...

Sorry bit light on the details...... Diesel TDI Auto 6 speed. All wheel drive. Yes it's probably overdue as we bought it serviced at 110k.... buyer beware and all that

As its 6 speed auto VW no longer have a service date for the gearbox fluid on a standard auto, Its been deleted from the service schedule.

What did you get quoted in that 2K?

120K = OIL AND FILTER
POLLEN FILTER
FUEL FILTER
HELDEX OIL (AS YOURS IS PRE 09)

BRAKE FLUID EVERY 2 YEARS - CHECK YOUR HISTORY TO WHEN LAST CHANGED
CAMBELT AND TENSIONER KIT - 105K OR 7 YEARS.

when you get the quotes ask what's actually going to be done for that money? .....VDUB.....

Worth getting the auto transmission serviced as well, to ensure longevity.

Thanks for the replies guys.

2k quote was for Cam/Timing Belt & Front and Rear brakes. Regular service was done for 120k but the mechanic noted in the log books that the 105 service was not done or should I say not done to spec.
