The 2019 Volkswagen Jetta with a 1.4L i-4 engine requires 4.4 quarts of oil, while the 2.0L i-4 engine needs 5.5 quarts, according to the manufacturer. It is recommended to use SAE 5w-30 or 5w-40 full synthetic oil for the car. To maintain peak performance, it is crucial to replace the engine oil and filter every 3000 to 5000 miles. Neglecting oil changes can result in the oil losing viscosity and failing to adequately lubricate engine components like pistons and cylinders. The cost of oil varies from $5 to $10 per quart, depending on whether it is conventional or synthetic and the brand or quality. When changing the oil, remember to also replace the oil filter. The oil change is a critical maintenance step, which is why a reminder light is now installed in the vehicle.

    The number one response is not accurate - it should be 0W-20 synthetic instead.

    Delete this post. I almost accidentally used the incorrect oil in my vehicle.

    Many responses provided earlier about oil specifications are incorrect. For the 2019 Jetta with a 1.4L engine, it is necessary to use 0W20 oil that meets the VW 508.00 specification.

    The information provided by others about oil specifications is incorrect. For the 1.4L engine in the 2019 Jetta, you will need oil that meets the VW 508.00 specification and has a viscosity of 0W20.

    The instruction manual for my 2019 Jetta S with a 1.4L engine recommends using SAE-0W-20 oil and filling with 4 liters, which is approximately 4.2 quarts. After my recent oil change, I initially added 4 liters as instructed. However, upon checking the oil level with the dipstick after running the engine, I found that I was still lacking half a quart of oil. I then poured in an additional half quart, bringing the oil level up to the top of the dipstick's indicator line. In total, I ended up using 4.473 liters or about 4.72 quarts of oil for the change. For those curious, the drain plug size is M14x1.5.
