Change the oil and filter , use 3.7 litres of 5w/30 sepcification A5/B5 or if you want the best go for 0w/30 A5/B5 . you really need the best in these particular engines to keep the oil sludge-free.
Air Filter and fuel filter , the pollen filter you can do every other year .

Cam belt is 10 years or 150000 miles ..
coolant is fine as long as it is a strong clean blue colour ...

every third service is air filter and fuel filter ....
