Think it's just an oil change. 40k or 4 years will be the big one.

3 years is lube service, as said, 4th one is the one to set aside funds prior to it happening, or your be in for a pocket emptying experience.

Mine will be 3yrs old on 22 May. Not heard jack sh1t from my dealer yet.
Best thing to do before the 4th service is to px it in against something newer, lower mileage and under warranty!
A nice used Golf R for £20k perhaps? ;-)
