Regular maintenance is part of caring for your Volkswagen, and who you go to for it is just as important as having service and repair done promptly. When you’re looking for Volkswagen service near Massapequa, our experienced team at Legend Volkswagen has you covered! Here’s what happy drivers all over the area regularly come to us for:
There’s a common misconception that all cars need oil changes between every 3,000 and 6,000 miles. While this is true for older models, Volkswagens from the past decade can generally go much longer periods of time between changes. In fact, Volkswagen recommends that drivers get an oil change at least once a year (every 12 months) or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. Using the right kind of oil (conventional, semi-synthetic, synthetic) is one of the biggest factors in being able to go long periods between changes and keeping your car running smoothly for years to come.
Even the most well-tuned Volkswagens are only as safe as the tires they sit on. You can prolong the life of your tires by getting regular pressure checks, tire rotations, and tire balancing, and many drivers choose to get this done during their routine oil changes as a precaution. It is also important to evaluate your tires at the start of every new season (especially fall and winter – the weather here in Long Island is not kind to tires!) to ensure you have a safe grip on the road. If you are in need of new tires or any other form of tire service, our team is happy to help.
A car that is out of alignment can drastically reduce its mileage, its tire life and even lead to serious long-term damage to the vehicle’s frame. While it’s a good idea to get your wheels aligned every year, you should definitely get it done every two to three years. Ask our team about wheel alignments and how they help prolong your vehicle’s life as a whole.
We know that the last thing any driver wants to hear is “Your transmission is failing.” Fortunately, such failure is rare, especially when transmission issues are addressed early on. If you notice any signs of potential trouble with this crucial vehicle part, for example difficulty shifting or staying in gear, odd sounds, or even smells while driving or shifting, then it’s time to schedule transmission service asap.
Because your brakes take a lot of force during stops, their parts (namely the brake pads, calipers, and rotors) are bound to wear out eventually. It’s a good idea to have your brake pads inspected fairly regularly, and many drivers actually get this done at the same time their vehicle is receiving a routine oil change.
Your Volkswagen’s battery works hard, but it will also wear out eventually. Fortunately, you can keep it going for a long time when you have it serviced and charged on a regular basis. When you need a car battery replacement, we’re here for that too! We are happy to install new batteries on site, but we also have them available for sale to car owners who would prefer to put them in themselves.
