Particular characteristics of the Flexible
Service
Regarding the Flexible Service, the oil
change service only has to be performed
when the vehicle needs it. To calculate when
you have to carry out this service, take into
account the individual conditions of use and
personal driving style. A major component of
the flexible service the use of LongLife oil in-
stead of conventional engine oil.
Bear in mind the information about the
specifications of the engine oil according to
the VW standard

page 319.
If you do not want to the flexible service
you can select the fixed service However, a
fixed service may affect service costs The
Service Advisor will gladly advise you.
Service interval display
At CUPRA, the dates of the services are indi-
cated by the service interval display on the
instrument panel

page 75 or in the Vehi-
cle settings menu of the infotainment
system

page 80. The service interval dis-
play gives information for service dates that
involve an engine oil change or an inspec-
tion. When the time for the corresponding
service comes, additional work required,
such as the change of brake fluid and the
spark plugs, can be carried out.
