VW Golf GTI Edition 35 CDLG : 5372 miles in 2023-2024 : annual oil/filter change inc pollen filter

 I use Fergusons of Stirling online

Have a huge range of possible service kits 

I chose this one

https://shop.fosautoparts.co.uk/service-kit-for-vw-golf-mk6-2-0-gti-edition-35-bosch-oil-carbon-cabin-filters-millers-oils-6124-trident-longlife-5w40-engine-oil-sump-plug-2011-2012




  • Bosch oil filter x 1
  • Bosch charcoal anti-odor cabin/pollen filter x 1
  • Oil sump drain plug with seal x 1
  • Millers Oils Trident Professional C3 5w40 engine oil x 5 litres (4.6L capacity listed by Millers for this vehicle)
  • Millers Oils Engine Flush 250ml: £7.99
So 70 + 8 = £78

warm engine
add oil flush
drain oil
remove oil filter housing
replace oil canister seal (included with filter)
reprime oil filter with new oil (it wicks a huge amount from dry!)
replace sump plug
start car, let idle for short time.
check dipstick (interestingly I still have the orange one which breaks apart, need to order new one yellow)

Pollen filter is remove screws
push retaining panel to one side then the filter can be pulled out.




Oil Change Service 01/05/2023 ME 58201 (2022-23 last years service)
Oil Change Service 16/06/2024 ME 63573

So thats 5372 miles for 2023-24
