As a responsible car owner, it is your job to make sure your vehicle is in tip-top shape! We all know that the engine is the heart of your vehicle and making sure that it runs smoothly is the best way to minimize issues. One of the easiest ways to keep your engine running smoothly is to make sure that your engine’s oil is clean. You should be checking your engines’ oil at least once a month, and if your oil needs to be changed often you could find yourself dishing out tons of money to the professionals. Want to save some money and check it yourself? Check out my how-to below and save your money for something nice!

However, if you believe that this task might be too much for your knowledge of cars, schedule a service appointment or stop into King Volkswagen and we can assist you in oil changes, fluid flushes, and anything else your vehicle might need! If you are more of a DIY person, make sure to check your owner’s manual to make sure you use the proper oil for your vehicle. Using the wrong oil could damage your engine and potentially cost you thousands of dollars or a new vehicle all together!

Checking Oil: How To

• Open the hood. Prop it so it stays open.
• Locate the oil dipstick next to the engine. It should have a yellow handle and/or be labeled.
• Pull out the dipstick and wipe it on a clean cloth or paper towel.
• Dip the stick all the way back in.
• Pull it out again and look at the oil level. If it’s in the middle of the hatched/indicated area, you’re good. More is better, less is okay, but if you’re lower than the area you need to get your oil topped up and have your system checked for leaks.
• Look at the oil quality and color. If there are a lot of particles or if the oil looks sludgy, you need to get it changed as soon as possible.
• Put the dipstick back in.
• Close your hood.

Taking care of your Volkswagen is important, especially during the winter months! Now it’s not that many of us don’t want to take care of our cars, in fact, we love our cars but we just might not know what needs to be done to keep it running in tip-top shape. Well, then it’s your lucky day because in this week’s blog I’m going to help you learn how to keep your vehicle in great shape! The best part? It’s all things you can do yourself or with the help from our service department if you need it! Take a look below and check out our 12 car care tips to keeping your ride ready for the year ahead!

• Inspect your vehicle on the daily. A simple glance over of your vehicle can help you prevent major breakdowns or other potential hazards when you’re on the road.
• Learn the difference of your warning lights and what they mean. Check your owner’s manual for the answers!
• Check tire tread and depth, rotate them as needed. This will make winter travels safer and you’ll get better gas mileage.
• Keep track of ALL fluid levels and fill them as needed.
• Got filters? Replace them or clean them out – no one likes a dirty filter!
• Try detailing your ride but be sure to use superior supplies. Best supplies = better results.
• Have your battery tested by a professional. Check connections, terminals, and show them some TLC by riding them of any corrosion that’s present.
• Replace your wipers as needed. You like to see when driving, right? Spend the money on good wipers and enhance your safety on the road.
• Proper octane rating = better gas mileage. Stick to the octane level that is recommended by your car manufacturer.
• Replace those spark plugs. If your vehicle has a difficult time starting, especially in chilly temperatures, try replacing spark plugs.
• Have your vehicle aligned! This is worth the money to ensure your vehicle is driving straight.
• Clean your vehicle! A clean car is a happy car, and that means a happy driver!

Winter is here and that means we won’t be strangers to the cold, snow, ice, rain, and everything else winter has to throw at us! One of the worst parts about the winter weather is traveling in it, that’s why it is important to make sure your ride is in tip-top shape so it can make it through the next couple of months!

One of the most important parts of your vehicle that is underappreciated is your windshield wipers. Your windshield wipers work hard to make sure that you can clear through any and all types of weather, and when you can’t, well, that’s when accidents happen! The problem is many drivers don’t know it’s time to switch out their wipers until it’s too late. So, in this week’s blog, we want to help you know when it’s time to switch those bad boys out for a fresh pair!

If you need any help with replacing or installing your new wipers please feel free to schedule an appointment or give us a call and we will answer any questions we can! If you are looking for genuine Volkswagen wipers, you can pick them up on our website, now!

What to look for:

• Broken frame: detachment from frame arms
• Metal corrosion: specifically at joints and claws
• Cracks, tears, or missing pieces in the rubber
• Check squeegee’s wiping edge, if it is rounded the wiper blade will be unable to make strong contact with the windshield

Maintenance tips:

• Wiper blades should be checked at least every six months and changed out once a year. Weather conditions play a vital role in the life of your wiper blades and can sometimes cause them to deteriorate at a quickened pace.
• Check over both the squeegee and the metal frames to avoid common problems like streaking, skipping, splitting, and clattering. By doing this you will avoid reduced visibility when weather strikes.

These tips can help your blades:

• Clean your windshield each time you fill up your gas tank
• Gently wipe off any dirt or oil with a damp towel that has built up on the rubber squeegee.
