As the owner of a Volkswagen, you know you’re driving a reliable and safe vehicle you can count on. A regular oil change with the proper oil from the certified Volkswagen technicians at your VW dealer will ensure that your Volkswagen engine remains well-lubricated and safeguarded.

How Often Should Your VW Get an Oil Change at your VW Dealer?

Volkswagen generally recommends replacing the oil in your vehicle every 10,000 miles or six months, depending on the model you drive, to ensure your Volkswagen engine stays lubricated to reduce friction that causes wear. Please note that these oil replacement intervals are merely general guidelines, and it’s best to consult your car’s owner’s manual for the specific oil replacement intervals for your Volkswagen model.

The Correct Oil and OEM Volkswagen Oil Filters

Using the right oil for your Volkswagen engine is crucial for maintaining it and enhancing the overall performance of your vehicle. Our certified Volkswagen technicians are well-versed in identifying the ideal oil grade for your Volkswagen engine to ensure proper lubrication. It’s imperative to opt for quality oil to minimize friction and wear and an OEM Volkswagen oil filter to reduce contamination, preventing the entry of harmful contaminants into your engine.

The Recommended Oil For Your Volkswagen Engine

The factory recommends using oil that meets VW 502 00 standards for Volkswagen gas engines. On the other hand, diesel engines work best with VW 505 00 or 507 00 compliant oil.

To ensure the best lubrication and protection for your Volkswagen engine, we strongly recommend full synthetic oil that suits your car’s needs, such as 5W-30, 5W-40, or 0W-40 oil. You can find information on the proper oil for your Volkswagen model’s engine in your owner’s manual or by consulting your Volkswagen technician.

When you bring your vehicle to us for an oil replacement, our certified Volkswagen technicians will conduct a comprehensive inspection of your car’s critical systems, including fluid level checks and corrections, headlight, wiper blade, brake, and airbag inspections, and perform a four-wheel tire rotation to ensure your tires wear evenly and last longer.
