Use the Right Fuel

Certain Volkswagen vehicles are designed to work best with specific fuel types, whether gasoline, diesel, or premium fuel. Using proper fuel assures efficient combustion, lowers engine wear and carbon buildup, and can enhance fuel efficiency. Certain Volkswagen models have turbocharged engines and perform better when using premium fuel. Always reference your owner's handbook or the fuel label inside your vehicle's fuel door to learn the recommended fuel type if you want to get more miles and greater performance out of your Volkswagen. 

Drive With Care

How you drive directly impacts the wear and tear on your vehicle. Avoid harsh acceleration and sudden stops, as these actions can strain your engine, brakes, and transmission. Maintain a consistent speed on the highway to reduce stress on your engine, and avoid unnecessary idling, which can waste fuel and contribute to engine wear. Additionally, be mindful of potholes and rough road conditions, as they can damage your suspension and tires. 

Keep Up With Routine Maintenance

Regular maintenance tasks like oil changes, air filter replacements, tire rotations, and brake inspections are essential for preserving engine health, optimizing fuel efficiency, and preventing costly repairs down the road. Following the manufacturer's recommended service schedule, as outlined in your owner's manual, is crucial. By addressing maintenance needs promptly, you'll catch potential issues before they escalate and keep your Volkswagen running smoothly, enhancing its overall longevity and value.
