I doubt many mk6 owners would have hit the 60,000km mark yet. But I have so I thought I'd share my experience.

I have always known the 60,000km/4year service is a major one. I was also under the impression that this would included the dreaded "DSG Service". So I've always prepared myself for a $1000+ service cost.

I started off by calling around a few dealers. Called 2 dealers, which both said the this is major service including DSG and that it will cost $1500. Then I called VW Village in Kensington who quotes me $1050. Considering this was a massive saving of $500 I thought I'd just get it done there. When I went to pick up my car today, I was told it only cost $580 and that this model golf (90TSI DSG) does not need a DSG service like the mk5's did. Needless to say I was quite confused, considering all the dealers had indicated that a DSG Service was required.

When I got home I checked through the service log book. I was unable to find anything relating to a DSG Service. Would anyone here be able to shed any light on this issue, I find it very perplexing that dealers would require me to do this service when it's not in the log book. Or maybe it is and I'm missing it?
