pingpongpo Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 My car (52'reg 130tdi golf) flagged up a little while ago saying its service was due. Just been looking through my old records and its come up spot on 10K miles done since the last one. This wouldn't normally be a problem but its on variable servicing and this wouldn't normally be a problem as I could get the dealer to sort it out but this happens everytime I get it done!! I 'think' they're using the right oil as I'm getting invoiced for the expensive stuff so why can't they get this right? Any things I should watch out for and are there any downsides to them having to reset my counter again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjie Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Go back to the dealer who did it and ask them why your car has been reset on a fixed service schedule rather than a variable opne. they should fix it for free. Also, check the oil spec, I think it's 502.01 for pd oil. Actually, I'm not sure, but I thik the pd oil is .01 different than non-pd oil!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustynuts Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 505.01 for fixed interval, 506.01 for variable service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingpongpo Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I've just dug out all the bumpf you get when they service it and it says variable on the sheet so I'll phone them today and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
