Why Oil Changes Are Important
Regular oil changes help your vehicle in many ways. Getting an oil change at the recommended intervals ensures a smooth drive with clean engine oil that helps lubricate various engine parts. Long-term, this will make sure your performance levels stay high, your efficiency is maintained, and that you'll run into fewer engine issues with regular oil changes as you're helping keep the engine clean.
You can find the exact suggested interval for when you should get your oil changed in your owner's guide for your VW, and while much depends on the vehicle you have and the type of oil you'll need, most can go around 6,000 miles between oil changes using quality synthetic oil. That's what we use for your VW and any other make and model, as we service all brands. Your oil change does depend on your driving habits, and while 6,000 miles is the standard, those who put a lot of mileage on their vehicles will want to ensure that they stick to a tight schedule, or do them a little sooner before hitting that mark, just to stay on top of things.
