Volkswagen Tiguan Engine Oil

A key component to keeping your Volkswagen Tiguan running well is the engine oil. Oil is your car's lubricant, and allows the engine to function without excess friction that causes damage and overheating. Oil deteriorates over time, so replacing the motor oil is an important part of maintaining your Volkswagen Tiguan. You can find engine oil from all of the top brands at AutoZone.

Replacing Your Motor Oil

Changing the oil in your Volkswagen Tiguan is one of the easiest maintenance tasks, and only takes about 30 minutes. Begin by lifting the front of the car, using either jacks or a ramp. Once you can access the bottom of the car, unscrew the oil drain plug and empty all of the old oil into a bucket or a catch pan, then screw the plug back in. Replace the old oil filter with a new one, and lower your car back down. Now simply add oil through the filler cap until it reaches the fill line on the car's dipstick.

Best Engine Oil For Volkswagen Tiguan

The year, make, model, and engine size determine the type of motor oil that a car needs, so you can find the necessary engine oil by looking in your car's owner's manual, or checking the information on the oil cap. You can use conventional engine oil for a Volkswagen Tiguan, but synthetic will result in greater protection.
