Does anyone know what milage my Golf will need a service? i.e every 12k?

53 plate Golf Gttdi 150 ARL

I have already given it an oil change at 66k and it is now sat on 69k so would it be 72 for the next service? Would it be a major service? If it is, what is involved?

I have not owned the car long and all the other cars i haved owned have been petrol, just wondering is diesel is any different?

Thanks

Change your oil every 5k and use 507.00 spec Longlife Oil to give your engine the best chance of longevity. The cam's on TDI PD engines are prone to increased wear (esp. on ARL's) if the incorrect spec oil is used and will cost you £££'s when the cam fails.
