When it's time to change the oil in your 2009 Volkswagen Jetta, make sure to use SAE 5W-30 oil as recommended by Volkswagen. They also suggest opting for fully synthetic oil, which offers improved lubrication compared to conventional oil. Synthetic oil is laboratory-engineered and breaks down slower, allowing you to extend the time between oil changes. With synthetic oil, you typically only need to change it every 7,500 miles, in contrast to 3,500 to 5,000 miles for conventional oil. To maintain your car's oil health, it's a good idea to check the oil level monthly to ensure it's full, clean, and free from debris or signs of burning that may cause it to darken.
