Flexible service interval display (only vehicles with long-life serv‐
ice, PR number QG1)
Calculation of service intervals:
♦ To calculate the service intervals for vehicles with long-life
service, input values such as distance driven, fuel consump‐
tion, oil temperature and load of diesel particulate filter are
evaluated.
♦ The result of the evaluation is a measure of the deterioration
of the oil due to thermal load.
♦ Oil deterioration is the decisive factor in determining the dis‐
tance that can still be driven before the next service.
Note
For vehicles with long-life service (PR number QG1) but which
are serviced according to time or distance dependent service, the
service interval display must be recoded to "non-flexible"
⇒ page 127 .
Non-flexible service interval display (only vehicles with time or
distance dependent service, PR number "QG0/QG2)"
Calculation of service intervals:
♦ To calculate the service interval for vehicles with time or dis‐
tance dependent service the non-flexible service intervals are
set by Volkswagen according to predetermined mileage or
time values.
♦ For normal operating conditions achieving these service in‐
tervals is technically assured.
