Common Reports
A commonly known reality is that all vehicles need mechanical attention to continue running well. This begins with basic preventative maintenance services such as oil and filter changes, fluid top-offs, and tire rotation and balancing. It also includes expected routine repairs such as the occasional tune-up and brake pad replacement. Eventually, it also means additional repairs. Although anything can go wrong, and we’ll need to check your auto to determine the exact problem, there are some issues that Volkswagen owners more commonly report than others. One of these is trouble with lubricant. Sludge can form, choking the vital flow of oil to the engine. This is particularly troublesome for drivers of the Passat as they approach the 100,000-mile mark. Your best defense is allowing us to change your oil as the manufacturer recommends. Also, some Volkswagen owners experience engine overheating. This is sometimes attributable to coolant leaks, but yours may also be one of those cars that need cooling system components replaced on an accelerated schedule to remain functional. Either issue is exacerbated by the fact that Volkswagens typically hold less fluid than other brands. There are also reports of faulty ball joints that necessitate suspension repair. Finally, beware of the busy check engine light. All modern vehicles sold in the US have one, but VW’s come on more often than some. Although a legitimate problem can trigger this, as it’s supposed to, the Volkswagen lamp sometimes gives a false reading when nothing is wrong.
