2006 GTI maintenance schedule?

Wondering if some owners can help me out here. I've been to a couple of dealerships in my area, and the salesmen give conflicting info on maintenance schedules. One said oil changes are the usual every 3K miles, tune ups at 30/60/90K. Another said oil changes are 7.5K, first tune up at 60K.

I know it depends on how you drive, etc. but can anyone out there with an owner's manual clear this up? Just trying to figure out cost of ownership and haven't been able to find much info. Did a search for this topic in the forum and couldn't find any either. Even the brochures for the car aren't out yet, it seems.

Thanks!

Hi StookMK5 posted this in another thread (http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=278):

Service intervals:

5K - Oil Change
10K - Oil Change plus inspections and tire rotations
20K and 10K intervals beyond that - Oil Change plus inspections and tire rotations

40K - Transmission fluid (DSG)
60K - Spark plugs
90K - Timing belt


VW recommends full synthetic oil in all new GTI's.
