Essential VW Maintenance
One of the most important things you can do to prolong the life of your Volkswagen in Lewisville, Texas, is keeping up with its routine maintenance. By sticking to a regular schedule, you can help prevent or detect issues before they become major, more expensive problems. Here’s what our service experts at Lewisville Volkswagen recommend you always follow.
Every 6,000-10,000 miles
When you buy a new Volkswagen, like a Passat, you get to enjoy the first months without any maintenance visits. Once you reach that first milestone, you will need the following services at least twice a year:
- Oil and oil filter replacement
- Tire rotation
- Wiper blade inspection
- Airbag system inspection
At 20,000 miles and every 20,000 miles after that
At these intervals, our friendly service technicians will perform the previously mentioned checks on your VW sedan, along with these additional services:
- Battery inspection
- Fuel filter replacement
- Tire inspection
- Dust and pollen filter replacement
- Brake system inspection
At 30,000 miles, and every 20,000 miles after that
When you reach these mileage intervals, the Lewisville Volkswagen service professionals will check the following:
- Brake pads and rotor condition
- Fluid replacement for brakes and clutch
At 40,000 miles, and every 40,000 miles after that
These visits will be the most comprehensive service checks on your Jetta. The service technicians will inspect many aspects of your Volkswagen and will let you know if they encounter any problems. Inspections will include the following components:
- Battery
- Tires
- Brakes
- Exhaust system
- Coolant
- CV joints
- Electrical components
- Underbody sealant
- Powertrain
