Not sure how or where to get your Volkswagen Golf R’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 2019 Golf R’s oil should be changed according to Volkswagen’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Golf R in the above table. Your Golf R may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Volkswagen if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Volkswagen Golf R. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2019 Volkswagen Golf R Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Volkswagen Golf R engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Volkswagen Golf R engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • How hard is it to change Volkswagen Golf R oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Volkswagen Golf R exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Volkswagen Golf R oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Volkswagen Golf R oil changes. In addition to changing your oil, our experienced technicians also perform oil filter replacements, troubleshoot oil leaks, and suggest the correct oil to help keep your engine performing its best.

  • Do I need to change my Golf R's oil filter when I get an oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Volkswagen Golf R every time you change the oil.
