Many vehicles use conventional motor oil, this is petroleum-based engine oil and provides the lubricating properties needed to keep most engines running properly. However, due to the lack of additives this oil has the shortest life which is why many of our customers prefer synthetic oil.
This type of oil is petroleum-based but offers longer life and increased performance similar to full synthetic oil. Many customers enjoy this oil for the additional performance it provides over typical conventional oil. Our certified technicians can help you decide which engine oil is best suited for your vehicle and driving style.
Newer, higher performance vehicles require full synthetic oil, so be sure to check with one of our service advisors or technicians to check whether your vehicle requires full synthetic. These oils are engineered for performance and longevity, so this can mean reduced oil changes if you use full synthetic oil.
Our technicians also perform oil changes on diesel engines, so come on in with your TDI or other diesel-model Volkswagens!
The reason your Volkswagen vehicle requires regular oil changes is to maintain a well-oiled engine to provide years of dependable service. This requires your engine oil to perform in extreme conditions, from freezing cold to extreme heat. Over time the viscosity of your engine’s oil degrades and does not provide the performance your engine requires. Also, over time contaminants can enter the oil system and degrade performance. In extreme cases, your engine can be damaged by long-term neglect of the engine’s oil. Luckily if you are in Louisville, KY, or the surrounding areas our certified technicians at Bachman Volkswagen have you covered!
