The 2013 VW Jetta is equipped with a timing chain. It is recommended to replace the coolant every 60,000 miles, change the air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, and replace the spark plugs every 100,000 miles unless they are copper spark plugs, which should be changed every 30,000 miles. Engine issues may arise, such as a loose gasket that needs tightening, spark plug issues causing engine problems, oil leaks requiring prompt repairs, and excessive oil consumption necessitating earlier oil changes. One serious concern is engine overheating, which could potentially result in fires and the car exploding.
What type of timing mechanism does a 2013 Jetta SE 2.5 come equipped with - a timing chain or a timing belt?
I just test-drove a 2013 Jetta "S" that has a timing chain instead of a timing belt.
