Some VW models, perhaps all, use a metric distance of 15,000 or 30,000 kms to trigger the dashboard display for servicing, ie 9,320 or 18,641 miles even though the documentation for UK models specifies 10,000 or 20,000 miles.
Hi Roger been today the car booked in for Wednesday 5th April 10.30am they said they were going to give it a check over.
AFAIK the VW system in the Touareg starts with 30,000 km and counts down, increasing the rate if usage is a lot of cold starts - although that may be an over-simplification.
That would be down to the particular manufacturer's instructions and terms and conditions for the specific model you have. Inevitably there will be some items that cannot be checked automatically, so they may require an annual check/service. Check with your supplier.
Did you ask for the tyres to be replaced ? And did you have to pay for them, I would not have bothered if I was getting rid of the car.
When examined nail in 2 tyres front and rear with this choices limited priory on road safely so happy to pay bill willingly

Don’t tell Mercedes owners that Hankook (OEM) are mid range other than perhaps in their pricing especially when Hankook all seasons have consistently come at or near the top of all seasons tyre testing. . Now where do Pirelli all seasons come ??

We had Pirellis on our S80 and while road holding was excellent, for some reason it seemed to attract nails and in the space of a year had to replace both front tyres due to the location of the nail in the tyre.
Well it looks like my Hankook tyres attract nails had two one in the front and rear and that one was leaking air .
