VW Jetta Maintenance




Regularly scheduled maintenance is an easy way to help your Volkswagen Jetta continue to run and perform at its best. However, life in the Newport Beach, Mission Viejo, and Rancho Santa Margarita area can be fairly hectic and sometimes the owner鈥檚 manual isn鈥檛 where you left it. At the Norm Reeves Volkswagen Superstore in Irvine, we鈥檝e highlighted some of the most important routine services found in the Volkswagen Jetta maintenance schedule. Follow these manufacturer-recommended services and you鈥檒l help to lengthen the lifespan of your VW. For most Jetta owners, this will be the first time that you take your VW to be serviced after you鈥檝e bought it. At this Volkswagen service interval, the auto technician will inspect the airbag system, the brake pads, the tires, and other basic systems. Your Jetta will also probably receive an oil change and a new oil filter unless you鈥檝e already had it replaced recently. If your Jetta has the service reminder feature, the technician will reset it and you鈥檙e on your way. The 20,000-mile VW Jetta service interval is similar to the previous one, with a few added procedures. The first new item is a battery check.





At this point, it鈥檚 a good idea to make sure that the battery in your Jetta is still holding a charge and distributing voltage properly. Next, the technician will inspect the entire brake system, not just the brake pads. They鈥檒l also check the tires to ensure that they鈥檙e still in good shape. In addition to replacing the engine oil and the oil filter, your Jetta will need to have the dust and pollen filter replaced. Like the name implies, this filter helps keep debris and allergens out of the air inside the cabin. The recommended maintenance for the Volkswagen Jetta at 30,000 miles follows the same routine as your first service appointment at 10,000 miles. As long as nothing else needs attention, the VW technician will change the oil and the oil filter and inspect a few important systems. While this service interval might not seem as important compared to the work done during the 20,000-mile interval, it鈥檚 a bad idea to skip routine maintenance. As we mentioned, these services help to keep the different parts of your Jetta working smoothly. If not taken care of properly, these parts could fail and even cause damage to other parts of the vehicle. The maintenance schedule for your Jetta is determined by a variety of factors, including model year, engine type, and transmission. Because of that, each Volkswagen Jetta maintenance schedule will be a little bit different to go with the components of your specific vehicle. To determine whether your Jetta is due for any routine maintenance, contact our service department or use our online maintenance schedule tool.

The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta is the best-selling VW in the States. It's a four-door sedan only these days, its five-door wagon having joined the Golf lineup. The Jetta still has fine handling and safety in its corner, but it's beginning to look quite dated. This year it gets a new, peppy, and fuel-efficient base engine, some infotainment upgrades, and some added active-safety features. The big stories are in the Jetta's powertrains. A new base 1.4-liter turbo four engine accounts for six different trims鈥攙ersions of the S, SE, and SEL levels鈥攚hile the 1.8T Sport and the Jetta Hybrid are their own trim levels. Finally, the Jetta GLI 2.0T has two of its own trim levels, SE and SEL. For 2016, the Jetta's diesel engine has been withdrawn from the market. VW flouted diesel emissions regulations, and still is working on a solution to fix the problem in new cars and in those purchased over the past decade. Now in its sixth model year, the Mexican-built Jetta remains one of the most conservative designs in the segment.





If you want style and flair in a compact sedan, you'd probably be better served going for a model like the Mazda 3, Ford Focus, or Hyundai Elantra. The Jetta's refresh last year made a few subtle changes to the front and rear fascia, but the square-cut sedan shape and the slab sides are starting to look dated. The inside remains refreshingly straightforward. It may lack the TDI diesels in the lineup for 2016, but the Jetta still offers three different turbocharged four-cylinder engines鈥攅ach with a choice of manual or automatic transmission鈥攑lus a hybrid model at the very top of the range. 20,000, the majority of this year's Jettas will be fitted with the new 150-hp 1.4T turbocharged 1.4-liter engine, which accounts for six trim levels. The 1.4T is responsive, produces torque starting at low engine speeds, and is light-years ahead of the archaic fours used in previous years of the same car.
