Extending your Volkswagen car's life

There are several things you can do that will help your car reach and surpass the 200,000-mile mark.

  • Regular oil changes are the most important thing you can do to maintain your engine's efficiency and prolong its life.
  • Follow the owner's manual carefully and do all recommended maintenance on time.
  • Safe driving habits might keep you out of an accident. Excessive accelerating and reckless driving also increase wear and tear on your car.
  • Keep up with replacing filters, spark plugs, and other items recommended by your owner's manual.
  • Change the timing belt, or serpentine belt, before it goes bad.
  • Use genuine Volkswagen OEM parts. It sounds self-serving, but these are the parts your Volkswagen was designed to use, and they will give the best performance.

Importance of Volkswagen Maintenance

Cars are better than they have ever been, which may be a pitfall for some car owners. Parts are designed to last a little longer than the time that is recommended to change them. This can make people think the part does not really need replacing, and there is a temptation to not get the maintenance done because the car is running fine. You might be able to go a little past the recommended time to change many things, but for best results, do not let your parts fail. The top reason that cars have problems is that they were not appropriately maintained. If you regularly service your car, it will last a long time. If you fail to maintain it, it will not last as long, and you will end up spending even more money.
