What happens if my Volkswagen Jetta spark plugs fail?

Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.

What does a puddle underneath my Volkswagen Jetta mean?

Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Volkswagen Jetta. 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.

What do hard starts and stops do to my Jetta engine?

The standard Firestone Tune-Up includes new spark plugs (and installation!), a thorough inspection of engine components, and a lifetime parts warranty*. The second service focuses on your Jetta's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system.

Restored fuel system performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Jetta can determine what kind of service it needs.
