Oil Change Interval:
Typically 15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first (or as per LongLife Service regime if equipped).
Timing Belt:
For 1.4L petrol and TDI engines, timing belt replacement is crucial, usually around 90,000-120,000 km or 5-6 years.
Engine Oil:
Likely API SJ/SL or ACEA A3/A4, viscosity such as 5W-40 or 0W-30 (refer to manual for exact specification).
Coolant:
G12 or G12+ coolant (Ethylene Glycol based with organic additive technology).
Transmission Fluid Manual:
GL-4 SAE 75W-90 (or similar, check manual for exact specification).
Transmission Fluid Automatic:
G 052 162 A1/A2 (or equivalent ATF specification for Tiptronic).
Common Problems:
Potential issues can include suspension component wear (especially rear), power window regulators, ignition coil packs (petrol engines), and occasional electrical gremlins due to complex systems.
Aluminum Corrosion:
While the aluminum spaceframe is robust, specific joint areas or exposed sections may require inspection for corrosion over time, especially in harsh environments. The manual would detail inspection points.
