Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Polo GTI 6R Service Schedule

    Hi guys,

    does anyone have a list of parts etc that is scheduled to be changed each service interval? The service book does not seem to have anything in it.

    I am now due for 60k service

  • #2
    I'd recommend:

    15k - Oil and oil filter
    30k - Oil and oil filter, air filter, pollen filter
    45k - Oil and oil filter
    60k - Oil and oil filter, air filter, pollen filter
    75k - Oil and oil filter
    and so on...

    Or if you want to change oil more often (as I like to):

    10k - Oil and oil filter (minor)
    20k - Oil and oil filter (minor)
    30k - Oil and oil filter, air filter, pollen filter (major)
    40k - Oil and oil filter (minor)
    50k - Oil and oil filter (minor)
    60k - Oil and oil filter, air filter, pollen filter (major)
    70k - Oil and oil filter (minor)
    80k - Oil and oil filter (minor)
    and so on...

    I'm not sure when spark plugs are due on the GTIs as I deal with a TDI (no spark plugs!), but I'd assume every 60k.

    Alex.

      Oil and filter every 15K/12 months.
      Air filter every 45K
      Spark plugs every 60K
      Fuel filter every 60K
      Pollen filter is every two years, but usually works out to be every 30/60/90, etc. Same goes for brake fluid.

      Those are the correct VW intervals.

        Does anyone know which type of sparkplug fits the twincharger engine? NGK Australia do not seem to have a listing..

          Should be 03C905601A, but I think that number has been superceded.

            Thanks again btw is it hard to get to the plugs? Reading on other forums it seems there is a need to use a specialized tool for removing the coils? VW tool T10094A

              You can buy an eBay copy of it without too much trouble.
