P.D.

The 2-liter 4-cylinder engine in the 2018 VW Beetle requires 6 US quarts of 0W-20 oil along with a filter. For optimal maintenance, oil and filter changes should be done every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months using fully synthetic lubricants, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months with conventional oil. Synthetic oils offer advantages over conventional oils, such as improved lubrication for engine parts, longer time between service appointments, and better performance in extreme weather conditions. Thinner viscosity synthetic oils flow more smoothly in cold weather, providing efficient coating and protection against friction and corrosion for engine components. The cost of a lube and filter service typically ranges from $120 to $140 for both materials and labor.
