Cleaner Air, Smoother Performance

If your air filter becomes clogged with dirt and debris, the engine will not get the oxygen it needs to burn the fuel efficiently. This normally results in an increase in the amount of fuel used (or wasted) and decreased overall performance. Changing your engine air filter every 30,000 miles (in some cases, sooner) will keep your vehicle running smoothly. How you drive your vehicle and the type of miles you put on your car will determine if you should schedule service before the regularly scheduled maintenance time.

Volkswagen Authorized Air Filters

When replacing your vehicle's engine air filter, always use a filter that is approved by Volkswagen manufacturers. All Volkswagen vehicles are manufactured according to strict guidelines. If you use an aftermarket filter that is not approved by Volkswagen, you can affect how your vehicle performs. If you change your air filter on your own and choose to use an aftermarket brand, you can seriously affect the performance of your engine. Visit the Parts Department at your local dealership to ensure you are purchasing quality, Volkswagen engine air filters.

Part of Your Regular Maintenance Check

When bringing your vehicle into the Vic Bailey Volkswagen dealership in Spartanburg for routine maintenance, always ask the mechanic to check your engine air filter. Even if your filter doesn't need to be changed, checking it regularly will ensure that it is changed as needed.
