TDI owners tend to keep their cars for a long time, and the engines reward them with high mileage and great fuel economy. KRP services Jetta, Golf, Passat, Beetle and Touareg TDIs, plus the Audi TDI models that share their engines.
Volkswagen's TDI engines are durable but particular: the right oil, the right fuel and a timing belt changed on schedule decide how long they last. After the 2016 emissions settlement, many TDIs received an approved emissions modification, and the cars still on the road deserve the same careful maintenance as ever.
For the rest of the car, see our Volkswagen and Audi pages. Here is our TDI checklist.
The items that matter most on a Volkswagen or Audi diesel.
Do not start it, or turn it off right away. The tank and fuel system should be drained and flushed. Gasoline can damage the high-pressure fuel pump on common-rail TDIs.
An oil that meets Volkswagen's diesel specification for your engine. We use the approved oil for your model.
It depends on the engine and year. We check your car's schedule and history and tell you exactly where you stand.
Most repairs at KRP Automotive are guaranteed for as long as you own your vehicle. If you pay for a repair at our shop, you shouldn’t have to pay for it again, that’s our promise at all four open New Jersey locations.
