Volkswagen recently changed the recommended cambelt service interval for this engine to 140,000 miles, but that does not necessarily mean you need to wait until this interval to change the cambelt. Previously the advice was five years or 60,000 miles, so you may wish to have the belt changed at this interval. Ultimately it is a personal choice
DSG oil change is due at 40k miles. I had mine done last week although a bit early (I’m on 33k) than the service schedule. So unless you have any issues it should be fine to do at 40k and sounds like it’s been looked after by a reputable place. Quote.
My new Indie, who let me watch him perform the 115,000km service (VW scheduled 120,000km), recommends 10,000km oil+filter changes after 100,000km. Although driving long trips on uncongested roads (but with a fair amount of trailer work), he confirmed that the oil was in in need of a change.
My 2017 VW Golf GTI 2.0 calls for oil changes at 15000 kms or 1 year. My gut feel is that the oil should be changed at least twice a year or every 7 or 8 thousand kms.
The service department appears to be lumping the DSG mechatronics fluid change in with the Major Maintenance interval at 60,000 km or 4 years. As noted, the 2020 version of the Audi Canada's service intervals document specifies a 60,000 km replacement interval for the mechatronics fluid with no time limit.

Either way, it's advised that the transmission oil is changed at 40k so you're definitely due!! I had Audi do it last week for £169 and it feels much better now so would advise it.
