How to maintain your Volkswagen
Volkswagen builds dependable engines, but TSI/TDI units and DSG gearboxes need genuine fluids and on-time service to stay reliable on Kenyan roads. Stay ahead of the belt and the gearbox and a VW will run for years.
Every 15,000 km / 12 months
Engine oil and filter (VW 504.00/507.00 spec), inspection and service reset.
Every 60,000 km
DSG gearbox oil and filter, spark plugs, fuel and air filters.
Every 90,000–120,000 km
Timing belt, tensioner and water pump (belt engines); DPF condition check on diesels.
Intervals are a guide — Nairobi traffic and dust often warrant shorter ones. We confirm the exact schedule for your vehicle.
Replace the timing belt on time
TSI/TDI timing-belt failure is catastrophic. Keep to the interval and change the water pump at the same time.
Look after the DSG
Regular DSG fluid and filter changes prevent expensive mechatronic and clutch-pack failures.
Keep diesels moving
DPF-equipped TDIs need regular longer drives, or a periodic forced regeneration, to avoid clogging in city traffic.
