What is the maintenance schedule for the Audi A3's 2.0L engine?

I just bought an Audi A3 with a 2.0L engine and want to make sure I am following the proper maintenance schedule. Can anyone give me some guidance on what the recommended service intervals are for this engine?

According to the official Audi website, the recommended service interval for the 2.0L engine in the A3 is every 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. However, some owners have reported better performance and longevity by following a stricter schedule of every 5,000 miles or 6 months.

As a long-time Audi mechanic, I recommend following the stricter schedule of 5,000 miles or 6 months for the 2.0L engine. This will help keep your engine running at its best and prevent any potential issues down the road.

I have been able to maintain my Audi A3's 2.0L engine for over 100,000 miles by following a strict schedule of every 5,000 miles or 6 months. It may seem excessive, but it has definitely paid off in the long run in terms of performance and longevity.
