Volkswagen Tiguan Service Intervals

How Often Should I Service My Volkswagen Tiguan?

To stay in top shape, your Volkswagen Tiguan will occasionally need to have service and maintenance. Volkswagen Tiguan service intervals typically begin at 15,000 miles. Your car will continue to have service at regular intervals until it hits 90,000 miles on the odometer. To make sure your Tiguan gets service at the right time, you'll want to follow the Volkswagen Tiguan maintenance schedule for your vehicle, which you can find in the owner's manual that you get with the Tiguan. Since services can vary by model, trim level, car's age, and other factors, you will need to look at the exact service recommendations in the owner's manual for your specific car.

15,000-Mile Service

The first service that your Volkswagen needs is a 15,000-mile checkup. The brake pads will be examined for safety, including an inspection of their thickness levels and wear patterns. The brake discs are also checked. The car's tires will also be rotated during the first mileage-based service appointment. The service interval display is also reset at this time if applicable.

30,000-Mile Service

The Volkswagen Tiguan is next due for service at 30,000 miles. Some additional services are added to the car's maintenance schedule at this time. The battery will be checked at 30,000 miles, and the brake fluid level will be inspected. The automatic headlights will be evaluated, and the car will have its coolant fluid levels checked. The engine will also be checked, and a mechanic will look at the engine compartment components. The transmission gets an overall inspection. The braking system will get a thorough check at this point, and the electrical system also gets an evaluation. A mechanic will test the air conditioning and heating elements as well.

60,000-Mile Service

Your Tiguan may get a new battery when it reaches 60,000 miles. The car will have its parking brake checked, and the headlights and headlight washer system will be inspected. The horn will also be checked, and the car's brake fluid level gets evaluated. The final drive is also inspected, along with the driveshaft boots.

90,000-Mile Service

The Tiguan will require more service at 90,000 miles. The car gets an oil change at this time, and its tires are rotated. The tire pressure levels are checked.
