2.1.3
Fixed service
For vehicles with a fixed service, fixed services are calculated.
This means that the mileage or time values are already set by
Volkswagen. For normal operating conditions achieving these
service intervals is technically assured.
Therefore the service intervals are fixed.
For vehicles
♦ which have not been delivered with extended servicing inter‐
vals (ESI) (PR numbers “QI1”, “QI2”, “QI3”, “QI4”, “QI7”),
♦ or for which the extended servicing interval (ESI) was stopped
♦ or for which no LongLife engine oil was used
the fixed service applies.
These non-flexible service intervals apply to all types of service
including an engine oil change.
Therefore, these vehicles have a fixed service interval display
and for maintenance the fixed service intervals (rigid
service intervals) apply. These vehicles are fitted with the follow‐
ing components:
♦ Fixed service interval display in dash panel insert
♦ Engine oil level sensor
♦ Brake pad wear indicator (if fitted)

Calculation of service intervals:
♦ The service intervals on vehicles with a flexible service is cal‐
culated. Input values such as, distance travelled, fuel con‐
sumption, oil temperature and loading on diesel particulate
filter are evaluated by the control unit.
♦ The result of the evaluation is a value for the deterioration of
the oil due to thermal loading.
♦ The oil deterioration is the deciding factor concerning the dis‐
tance that can still be driven to the next service.
