What is the best maintenance schedule for a Volkswagen Golf?

I recently bought a Volkswagen Golf and I want to make sure I am taking good care of it. What type of maintenance schedule should I follow to keep my car running smoothly and avoid any costly repairs?

It's important to follow the maintenance schedule recommended by Volkswagen in your owner's manual. This will ensure that your Golf stays in good condition and avoids any major issues.

I personally like to get my oil changed every 5,000 miles and have a full check-up done every year. It gives me peace of mind knowing my car is running at its best.

Some people believe in following the '3,000 mile rule' but for modern cars like the Volkswagen Golf, this is unnecessary. Stick to your owner's manual for the best maintenance schedule.
