Volkswagen Golf Maintenance Schedule Avon, IN

If your Volkswagen Golf is currently driving like a dream, properly maintaining it is the key to keeping its performance sky-high. Golf owners in the Avon, Indianapolis, and Plainfield area will want to stick to the car’s maintenance schedule to sustain optimum performance.

Our team at Andy Mohr Volkswagen has created this helpful maintenance schedule for just that. Below you’ll learn what services should be completed at each mile marker to help keep your Golf running as long as possible.

10,000 Miles

When your vehicle hits the 10,000-mile mark, the maintenance schedule will require you to have an oil change. This is a simple job but an imperative one to help keep your engine well-lubricated. Along with that, you should have your tires re-balanced and rotated to increase longevity.

In addition, you’ll want to have the brake pads checked for thickness and a visual inspection of the airbags to assure they are working correctly. During this inspection your certified Volkswagen technician will also check all fluid levels including coolant and window washer fluid.

20,000 Miles 

At 20,000 miles, all of the suggested services that were performed at 10,000 miles should be repeated, along with a few additional services.

The brakes should be serviced including an inspection of the entire system to note brake fluid levels and check for any leaks. The rotors and brake pads will be checked to make sure your vehicle can stop on a dime.

All cabin, pollen, and fuel filters will be checked, cleaned of any dust or debris, and replaced should they need it. The tire mobility kit which allows you to repair flat tires, should also be inspected.

30,000 Miles

Your Golf’s interior and exterior should be visually inspected for corrosion and the wear of materials. The same services performed for the 10,000-mile interval per the maintenance schedule should also be performed during this service appointment.

40,000 Miles 

Every 40,000 miles or four years, it’s suggested that your Golf receive a major overall inspection to ensure that all of its components are functioning properly. This inspection encompasses all of the maintenance items from the 10,000- and 20,000-mile service intervals as well as the items below:

• Engine and transmission check to make sure all components are working properly.
• Ensure all lights are functioning.
• Replace spark plugs.
• Transmission fluid replacement.
• Power steering audible inspection and service.
• Replacement of the tire filler bottle in the mobility kit.
• Sunroof inspection and seal test.
• Tire rods inspected and replaced.
• CV joints checked. 

To put the cherry on top of this critical service appointment, make sure to have your certified technician take your Golf for a test drive for one final road test. After this inspection you’ll be prepared to drive into the sunset!

60,000 Miles

At 60,000 miles, your Golf is recommended to receive most of the services completed at 40,000 miles. The most important ones include a brake system, engine, and exhaust inspection. The car’s chassis along with the ball joints, wheel bearings, and axles should be visually inspected for damage and driven to recognize any play in the steering.
