Tune Into Your Volkswagen Cabriolet

Is it tune-up time? If you usually wait until your car has an issue to take it in for service, it could be time for a new way of doing things, particularly if you want to keep your 1989 Volkswagen Cabriolet in tip-top shape. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Cabriolet. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you follow the guidelines specified by Volkswagen for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you can rest assured you’re investing in your Cabriolet’s long-term engine performance.

Engine Tune-Up for Volkswagen Cabriolet

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Volkswagen Cabriolet engine tune-up services. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your Cabriolet. The third tune-up option is a fuel system cleaning service, which is a three-step process that removes varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits on your Cabriolet's fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Keep in mind that your Cabriolet's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. If you’re not sure what services are the best fit for your car, let us help! Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

1989 Volkswagen Cabriolet Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • Will it hurt my Volkswagen Cabriolet to drive with old spark plugs? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Volkswagen’s recommendations.
  • What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Volkswagen Cabriolet? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Volkswagen Cabriolet. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • Are hard starts and stops bad for my Volkswagen Cabriolet engine? Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.
  • I need a Volkswagen Cabriolet tune-up. Where can I get on? At your local Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our technicians know how to service, maintain, and repair Volkswagen Cabriolets.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Volkswagen Cabriolet need to be cleaned? The cleaning schedule for vehicle fuel injectors varies depending on your driving conditions and the type of fuel you use. Some manufacturers suggest cleaning your fuel system as part of routine maintenance, while others will recommend it on an as-needed basis if you’re experiencing poor performance. Reference your Volkswagen owner’s manual for exact guidelines.
