Good evening,

I have a 184ps ea288 tdi engined mk7 golf. The car now has 155k miles on it. i currently do about 25k miles per year and will probably keep this car for another couple of years before changing. Does anyone have any guidance with regards to additional maintenance that should be performed on high mileage tdi engines in addition to the regular oil changes etc.?

thanks.

I'd say timing belts, oil filters, fuel filters, and just overall maintenance is helpful. If the car is a DSG, then fluid and filter changes are a good idea there too.

Basic and routine maintenance help prevent many of the failures that may take place as the car ages and wears.

TB/rollers/water pump/tensioner/serpentine belt, needs changing at 130k miles. Do you know if that was ever done?
