Hey Guest one of our sponsors Progressive Parts is running Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers - more details here
It has to be checked first of all at it's 60k mile service and then checked at every service from then on until it needs doing. Realistically you should be aiming to change it somewhere around 70k miles.
When you change it, change the water pump to the brass Audi TT version too, as this is less likely to break up like the standard plastic one does.

Not a great deal. See how it feels when you drive it... if there is any hesitation, surging, flat spots or anything else then get it checked out. It should be nice and smooth though.
Keep an eye on the temperature gauge too... it should sit bang on 90degrees once warmed up, no matter how much stick you give it.
Check the footwells, front and rear, for damp or signs that it was once damp. If something doesn't seem right it is a sign that your door seals need checking or re-sealing. Or, if it's the front passenger footwell, it's possible that the pollen filter cover hasn't been put back on properly.
Other than that, just look for the usual signs of crash damage, bad panel fitment, odd handling characteristics or anything that doesn't feel 'right'
Good luck
