    Service item schedule

    Hi folks

    Just wondering where I would be able to find the service schedule for a Pog ie what items are inspected/replaced at which service?

    On my old car it is listed in the back pages of the owner's handbook but the VW handbook doesn't seem to have it

    Thanks

    As long as they do quality work. Most servicing seems pretty basic; oil, filters, etc. Its the stuff thats not in the schedule that takes some understanding of the car and there are not enough Polo's around for general mehanics to have quality understanding of the vehicle.

    I looked at that site, could not see any reference to changing the timing belt... I'd be wary... I'd hope they are including this for the higher prices.

    i should double check with the replacement of the timing belt for the higher priced service. i remember asking the cheapest dealer bout the timing belt...its not included in the price, they said its about $600ish onto of the service just to replace the timing belt :s

    is there any problem if i dnt get it changed this time round? its an '06 model.

    I think 60k is the recomended time for change. if it breaks, you are going to be up for fixing some serious problems...

    I have low kms, but its an 06 as well... Need to keep it on my service agenda.

    ok, just called up about the timing belt replacement....they told me 4-5yrs or 100,000kms
    its not recommended to replace just yet, but they check it to see in what condition its in..so im not gonna worry about it just yet
