What is the Best VW Passat W8 Oil Change Interval? Our Blauparts oil change kits are designed for the factory recommended VW Passat W8 oil change interval of 10,000 miles or once a year. However depending on rough driving conditions or spirited driving styles Blauparts recommends an earlier oil change intervals or every 6 months which ever occurs first. Changing your VW oil is good preventative maintenance in an effort to minimize long term engine repair costs.
What Oil Type Should I Use? We suggest always using oils that specifically indicate an Audi/VW oil quality specification on the bottle (Example: VW 502 00 / VW 505 01). These oils have been created with your vehicles engine design and style in mind. By using approved specification oil you will greatly improve your vehicles mechanical longevity and performance. Many engines that use generic style engine oils will most likely have premature mechanical problems later in mileage (Example: premature oil consumption, worn engine internals, blown and worn turbochargers, prematurely plugged cranks ventilation and pcv systems, plugged diesel particulate filters and catalytic converters).
VW Oil Changes and Warranty? Blauparts recommends that any vehicle under factory warranty use an engine oil with OEM approvals for the required oil specification.
Whats the difference between an oil that “meets” an oil specification and an oil that has “OEM Approvals” or an approved specification? An oil that has an “approval” received a formal letter of approval from the car manufacturer that the oil specified can be used in their engines whereas an oil that “meets” an oil specification has not received a formal letter of approval from the car manufacturer.
