Looking for the service manual requirements for your 2015-2016-2017 VW MK7 Golf R? We put together a quick and easy list of what is required at each service interval. The list shown below is 100% as per Volkswagen's recommended interval. Most MK7 owners who are meticulous about maintaining their vehicle will change their oil every 5k miles instead of 10k.

What should I make sure I do if I am doing my own MK7 Golf R maintenance?

If you have decided to maintain your own vehicle you should be sure to do a few things.

Keep meticulous service records including mileage, date and proof of purchase of the parts. This is important because if you ever run into a warranty issue they may ask you for service records. Failing to produce these could result in a denial of a warranty claim.
Make sure you are using oil that meets the required spec. As per the owners manual you can use 5w-30 or 5w-40 but the oil must meet the required Volkswagen Spec of "VW 502 00". All of our MK7 Golf R maintenance kits include oil that meets or exceeds this spec.
