Car history - a question for all the learned &/or auto industry members

The service interval display can be easily changed with VCDS, so I don't see why dealer software can't do the same. Transporters advice is good too.

On my car, I changed the basic interval from 15000 to 7500 (because thats how often I service it)... but you can reset it any time.

Haha...12 months between servicing??

I wish...

I do over 1000 per week in my octavia, so does my wife in her polo GTI, so our services come up pretty quick!

every 3 months or so!

Since we moved to the sticks I'm in the same boat with my Golf & she's not far behind with the Superb...

Where do you get your two serviced Tigger?

The sticks?!... Bah!! You're not that far from the city.
I drive past you for most of my jobs!!
My house is 100km from the CBD. Can't remember if thats direct or by GPS. I *think* GPS.

I get mine serviced where I bought it - Allan Mackays Moss Vale.
Impeccable service. Loaner cars for like 15c/km. Although I have a standing arrangement where I fill the tank and bring it back... When you do 150km in a loan car, it ends up being cheaper. XD
There's also a VW dealership in Moss Vale, but I'd just take both the Golf and the Superb to the same place.

They sell/service Volvo, Peugeot and Skoda... But I've seen Falcon's, Couriers, a Landcruiser, Hilux, Merc C-class and a whole bunch of other stuff there, too.
Give them a call.

My 30k is due really soon... I'm roughly 500 off. >.<

Yep, or you can try Camden GTI in Campbelltown

Yeah, I know it's not that far... but I went from a 12km to an 85km trip to work @ Mascot. The drive up doesn't worry me but the trip home can suck until Narellan Road!

Thanks for the head-up re Moss Vale, hadn't thought of that.

If it sheds any light on the situation - my service interval has always told me how long until next service, plus 365 days and 15,000km.

Next service 720 days or 30,000km... Yeah, right!!

Your service indicator is set up for variable service intervals (QG0/QG2). It's easily fixed with VCDS or by your dealer.
