Service Schedule for MK7 Golf 1.8T Gen3 (2015, 2016, 2017)

Looking for the official service interval requirements for your VW MK7 Golf 1.8T? We’ve put together a clear, easy-to-follow maintenance schedule showing what Volkswagen recommends at each mileage interval.

The service schedule below follows Volkswagen’s factory maintenance requirements. Many MK7 owners who are proactive about long-term reliability choose to change their oil every 5,000 miles instead of the factory 10,000-mile interval. This is optional and ultimately comes down to personal preference and driving habits.

What should I make sure I do if I am performing my own MK7 Golf 1.8T maintenance?

Keep detailed service records including mileage, date, and proof of purchase for parts. Warranty claims may require documentation, and missing records can lead to delays or denial.
Use oil that meets the required specification. Per the owner’s manual, oil viscosity may vary (commonly 5W-30 or 5W-40), but it must meet Volkswagen VW 502 00. All of our MK7 Golf 1.8T maintenance kits include oil that meets or exceeds this specification.
