Golf GTI Edition 35 service 2022 : Oil / Filter and Cabin Filter



Last service blog is 2020 to 2021 blog service entry

from
Feb 2021 49546
to
Feb 2022 53285

3739 miles between services (even less than 2020-21)

this time I went for 

  • Bosch oil filter x 1
  • Bosch cabin/pollen filter x 1
  • Oil sump drain plug with seal x 1
  • Millers Oils Trident Professional 5w40 engine oil x 5 litres (4.6L capacity listed by Millers for this vehicle)

given the low mileage, no need for cam follower yet (replaced at 34k and I dont run a stg2 pump kit so low risk)

lots of service kits available 








cost £47.90

Easy job now, jack up car, remove undertray (8 screws), drain oil, replace filter (remember to replace the lip seal).


reset indicator using VCDS which I have





 Mileage should now increase as lockdown is over.
Yearly service is done, car finally gets a properwash as its dry and sunny.

Car will be 10 years old and approx 55,000 miles  at the end on May 2022

(for comparison my Edition 30 was 110,000 miles at 10 years old!)
