Funk-star Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 30K service is oil and filter. But if your motor is 4 years old then it will be the biggie 40k service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jthedriva Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 right im worried, my car is almost 6 years old now but only done 23k miles, will it need anything serious soon style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /> also i know you can do most of the servicing stuff youself (if you are out of warranty) for a fraction of the price....

Stweth. Thats even dearer than on my volvo. Anyway, there are no set service schedules for the Lupo, or any other VW. Its a check and replace when necassary type affair. So i have been told.Does the water pump HAVE to be replaced with the cam belt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i have been told. Thank you!No one is listening to word I say on the subject!Its recomended to change the water pump, but at 30k miles I dont think it is nessesery.At 60k, then yes, its got to be worth the price of the new pump.Welcome!
