service due

Good day all I have VCDS and I have had my van serviced at 10k miles - however this was before the reminder was triggered. I know the mileage and date the service was done (days ago and miles ago to if that's easier to input) How (using VCDS) do I 'enter' the service on the date and mileage...

Light just come on at 68k miles, guessing this is to drain and replace with new oil, whats the costs of this job and does it also require a new filter? any help or advice would be much appreciated

Hi We need to get the first service booked for our 6.1 and I’d be grateful if folk can give recent feedback on their experience with the VW Van Centers in Manchester or Sheffield? We’re mid-way between them and so they’re both equally easy/difficult to reach. FWIW my past experience of...

Hi, I’ve just bought a converted camper from Speedkings, it’s a 71 plate on 11,000. It had an oil and filter change (long life oil) in Sept 2023. Have been told it doesn’t need a service until 2025? Can anyone advise please ? Worrying me, things like brake fluid, air filters, pollen filters...

Some advice and thoughts needed please. My T32 LWB Kombi is coming up to one year old. I bought it new from Heritage in Bristol and was massively underwhelmed by the buying experience with them. I have since heard lots of negatives about their aftercare and service. Should I stick with a main...

Guessing it’s me, but I don’t know how to access mfd data. Been sat in the van ten minutes with no luck. I’d like to change the service schedule to Long Life and change the digital speedo from Kph to Mph. I don’t have steering wheel controls. Done a search but can’t find anything helpful. Can...

Hi all, just a bit confused about servicing. I have a Nov 21 plat T6.1, with 27000 on the clock. I had a service done when I bought the van in summer 2022. It has come up on the dash that an Oil Service is due. I phoned my local VW Van Centre and the lady said "it isnt due an oil service, its...

Hi guys , relatively new to the Vdub scene . Bought a 67 reg 204 bi turbo from a Vw subsidiary in October, already had the egr cooler replaced but now worry she’s drinking to much oil . Should I go to an Independent specialist or Main VW dealer for tests ? I’m based near North Birmingham...

Hi, My May 2020 registered (2019 year of manufacture) T6 High line 150 HP Converted camper has 11200 miles on the clock. The previous owner gave me an invoice for an oil & filter change carried out in May 2022 at 8040 miles. This was done at a non-VW garage. Is it likely to have had (or...

Is there a gizmo to reset console warnings for a 6.1 Transporter?

Hi Everyone, Please can someone help with the following My van has covered 12350 miles and it is saying oil service required within 100 miles But underneath that it says inspection due in 7700 miles. this is confusing me as i thought the the oil would be changed at the inspection miles and...

Afternoon all, does anyone know how to reset the oil change interval on a T6.1? I've tried the tried and tested method as per the other threads and the YouTube videos which works for my own T6, but it doesn't seem to work for a T6.1 It doesn't seem to come up on the dashboard display as to how...

Just back from an 'Interval' service which came up on the dash reminder last week. The VW van centre handily also sent me a video of exactly what they did during the service! The video is about 120 seconds long, to be fair it doesn't include getting it up on the ramp, and then he looks at the...

Hi, I have a newbie question that can hopefully be easily answered by those in the know. I recently purchased a t6 19pate t32 , with 25k on the clock, on 1st of October. I have just had my first service and health check at my local VW dealer. Now before I took the vehicle in when I went into...

Hi All, Had my van since Sept 2019 and have done around 12,500 miles and the oil light/service message just came up. I have it booked in for next week, are there any things i should look out for, or ask them to check? Cheers in advance. CZ.

Had my first interim service at a main dealer last Friday and all was ok, just wondered what’s included in the service as today my “ad blue” warning has come on to let me know I need to top up. It’s not really an issue as I can do this myself but would of thought a service would have picked this...

What are peoples opinions on the above? In two minds as I can get the parts very cheap. Cheers, Lewis

Does anyone have any experience of using the Carista feature to reset the 'Service Due' indication? Does it work OK on T6? Does it affect/corrupt the Service Regime (Fixed/Flexible) your van is set to? Can you change the Service Regime using Carista? Thanks! D.

Hi all after a bit of advice. My 2017 150hp T6 Campervan was serviced on 24/5/18 at 5k miles before I bought it . It now has 7.5k miles on it and the service indicator shows it needing an inspection service in 33 days. Am I interpreting that correctly ? I don’t want to invalidate the warranty...

Hi, Just wondering what the going rate with vw is for an oil service / oil n filter change?
