The 2013 VW GTI is equipped with a timing chain and requires coolant replacement every 60,000 miles. Air filters should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, while spark plugs need changing at 100,000 miles unless they are copper, in which case they should be replaced every 30,000 miles. Engine issues can arise, such as loose gaskets needing tightening, spark plugs popping off, oil leaks that should be promptly repaired, excessive oil consumption necessitating early oil changes, and the serious risk of engine overheating potentially leading to fires and even car explosions.
