The manual says oil every 5000 miles or 6 months; fuel filter every 20000 miles or 2 years. Of course, the Golf I doesn't have a variable service interval indicator. I think the figures given are conservative ones, seeing at variable service interval indicators are often able to extend intervals, etc.

Well, for me, it will probably be an oil change every 1000 miles and a fuel filter every 4000, because I only expect mine will do around 2000/year. I'm going to stick to the time intervals in the schedule….

cheers boys

just changed my fuel filter after about a year and a half of daily driving and it made soooooo much difference to the performance.

plenty of crap came out when i tipped the old one out!

strange that an engine would thrive on a constant supply of petrol!

i'll probably be changing the oil more often now too.
