Oil Change Q&A for Your 2016 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Volkswagen Golf SportWagen? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Golf SportWagen’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Volkswagen Golf SportWagen oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Volkswagen exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Volkswagen Golf SportWagen oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Volkswagen Golf SportWagen oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Volkswagen Golf SportWagen to illuminate? The oil change light in your Volkswagen Golf SportWagen could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Volkswagen Golf SportWagen? Every time you change the oil in your Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, you should also replace the oil filter.
