- To change the minutes, press the Menu/Clock button once more.
- Press the 0.0/Set button once more to make the adjustment; press twice to change quickly.
- For the process to be finished, press the Menu/Clock button.

The oil in your VW should be changed every 10,000 miles or after a year. It is no longer necessary to schedule an oil change every 3,000 miles for cars made from 2009 onward. Even though oil life can vary depending on the model you drive and the type of oil you use, the majority of contemporary VWs may go 10,000 miles without ever having a replacement.
