Do regular oil changes make a difference in my Volkswagen?

Yes, regular oil changes really ARE important! If you’re driving around with old motor oil, the broken-down fluid (and resulting debris) isn’t protecting your engine parts. In fact, it may even be causing slow damage to your Volkswagen Beetle’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

Do I need to follow Volkswagen's recommended maintenance schedule?

One of your best defenses against paying for repair services is following Volkswagen's recommended maintenance schedule for 2001 Beetles. Volkswagen built your vehicle and can best anticipate when something will need to be serviced or replaced.

What should I tell the technician when I bring my Volkswagen to the shop?

No one likes having to get repair service on their trusty Volkswagen Beetle, but you can help minimize the hassle. As soon as you notice something that doesn’t seem right in your vehicle, make a note of the date and what happens (and write it down so you don’t forget!). Are there new noises coming from the engine? Does something smell funny in your A/C vents? The more information you can give to your technician, the better! We’ll be able to find the root of the problem quickly and address it before it gets any worse.

Don't wait if you're experiencing brake squeaks or a loss of braking power. Safe driving is practically impossible without responsive brakes.

Schedule an appointment today.

Repairs for Your Volkswagen Beetle Radiator

What does a radiator do, anyway? It ensures that your engine stays within an optimal temperature range while it’s running. When the radiator isn't working properly, your chances of an overheated (and broken down) engine go way up. Keeping the radiator in working order is vital to long-term engine performance. To properly maintain your radiator, you should replace the coolant/antifreeze in your 2001 Volkswagen Beetle at the intervals recommended by Volkswagen. If you have coolant leaks under your car, an illuminated “low coolant” light, or a higher than usual engine temperature on your dashboard thermometer, these signs could indicate that your radiator needs service.
