Just bought a manual 2015 VW Polo 1.2 TSI with 72k miles. I have no record of the gearbox oil ever being changed.
I’ve seen people say on this sub say to leave it alone,some say change it at 50–60k, and some change it at 100k, so I’m a bit confused.
Should I change it now at 72k, or leave it? What mileage would you recommend and what oil. I want this car to last me as much as possible.
I’ve just bought a 2015 VW Polo 1.2 TSI with 72k miles. It’s had consistent oil changes and the spark plugs were replaced at 60k, but that’s all the history I have.
Is there anything I should know about this model, particularly common issues or important maintenance? I’ve heard about timing-chain problems on older 1.2 TSI Polos (especially around 2013), but I’m not sure if this applies to my 2015.
This is my first car and I don’t know much about cars, so any advice on things I should check or maintain would be really appreciated. I’d ideally like to get it to around 150k miles.
