Maintenance Service Intervals

To keep your car safe, reliable, and fuel efficient, it needs to have periodic services. These services, often outlined in your owners manual, are specified by the factory to keep your car on the road, and running smoothly. At Roberts, we have a database outlining when these periodic services need to occur, and what actions to perform, so that we can help you quickly and efficiently.

Volkswagen and Audi specify that their cars require major services at different intervals for different years. Beginning in the 1999 model year major services are performed at 40,000 mile intervals. It is extremely important that spark plugs be changed at those intervals. Due to increased voltage requirements worn spark plugs cause failure of costly ignition components. Call Ken at 717-285-3738 and he will answer any questions you may have about maintenance required for your car. Remember, Roberts Automotive is authorized to perform all maintenance services that keep your new car warranty in effect.
