My GTi is 4 years old this month, but only done 46k

Should I get mine done to be on the safe side? :shock:

I think it's every 4 years, regardless of mileage. My old car was on something like 24000 miles when it was done. Seems a bit daft when it's put like that but rubber degrades over time etc and it's a pretty important thing to maintain, so I just got it changed to be on the safe side.
