Hello KZfaq,
Today, we are changing the oil and filter on a 2015 VW Jetta 1.8T. VW recommends changing the oil every 10k miles. We prefer to change it every 7500 miles though.
Follow our step-by-step tutorial on how to change the oil and filter for a fraction of the cost of what the Dealer wants to service this item. The cost for the parts with a Lifetime Guarantee will be less than $75

If your bottom 2 O-rings are bad on your Adapter (long center plastic piece) you will need to upgrade to the new Oil Filter housing along with the Adapter. The O-rings are not available from VW so you must buy both new parts.

Thanks for the clear video! Used it today as a quick reference for plug size and torque specs. I’m happy VW used the steel oil pan on our 1.8T instead of the plastic pan on the Gti (I’m not a fan of the plastic plug either).

Thank you so much for the video. This will help me a lot and save you money and take proper care of my car. I just got my car back from a 3 week wait. I took it in for a coolant leak, and they say they changed the water pump for that issue. Along with other work. But now my Jetta...breaths weird when it idles ..and sometimes it wants to gently..in a exhale ..putter off..it's not an aggressive sound. But clearly my car shouldn't be turning off at the light. I noticed it was smoking for underneath and I believe they didn't close the oil cap fully (my engine was dry of oil less than 1 week later) which lead to oil dripping on hot pipes. They also left the top cover of the vacuum tube that connects to the top of my radiator/fan. I look forward to fixing a car I really love saving limited funds in the process..thank you.

Thanks for the comments, glad you are enjoying the channel content. Sorry to hear you are having issues after the repairs were done on your Jetta. The first thing we would do it to clean up the engine bay, here is a quick video for that - kzfaq.info5zhorB-cOSo Then you can confirm that you don't have anything actively leaking. Are you getting any check engine light? You can also check out our channel where we have performed several repairs on the Jetta - kzfaq.info/sun/PLFnK0z3T00fXxXyH00PuYeSRNM77TtdYD&si=Z9cHvKa3zKHdZjUD Depending on your mileage, you might want to look at doing the fuel filter since that will have an impact on the idling/running of the car. Let us know how things go with your VW project, feel free to reach out anytime. Cheers!

Great video. I wish you had the oil and filter part number that you can get from any auto store or Walmart. Thank you

@BradleysGarage 26 күн бұрын

Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed the video. Apologies regarding the part numbers as we only use OEM filters on our cars. Any auto parts store will be able to cross reference the OEM number to find a comparable aftermarket oil filter brand. Good luck on your VW project. Cheers!

Awesome video. I'm looking into possibly picking up a 2016 1.8T, but might end up going with a 1.4T. I'm assuming the 1.4T will be a little bit different to do this.

@BradleysGarage 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comments George. The oil/filter change is a little different on the 1.4L. You will need to take off the lower belly pan (plastic) in order to gain access to the Oil Filter. That motor uses a normal oil filter, not the cartridge style the 1.8L uses up top. Other than those differences the process will be the same. Thanks again for hanging out, let us know what you end up buying. We would go for the 1.8 if it were us. 😎 Cheers!

@BradleysGarage Hey man, I actually ended up buying a 2016 Jetta 1.8T just like you suggested after a lot of back and forth lol. Looking forward to doing my first oil change in this vehicle. Looks like the maintenance record had an oil change a few K miles ago, so I’m waiting a short bit but it’s definitely on my list! Thanks again for the awesome video. One of my favs I’ve found so far when looking up videos for this car. Appreciate it dude!

from factory the car is recommended to use 5w'40 with the 502.00 vw rating out of curiousity why was 5w'30 used? although im glad liqui moly was used it tends to burn a lot less on the ea 888 1.8t gen 3 motors

@BradleysGarage 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comments, the factory specs state either 5w-40 or 5w-30 can be used on the Jetta. Since we have a few Passat TDI's we always have a stockpile of 5w-30 in the garage. We have been happy with the performance of LiquiMoly oil. Here is the VW spec chart - static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/MC-10158504-9999.pdf Thanks for hanging out, Cheers!

Dude? Did you see how black that oil was and you’re saying to do an oil change every 7500 miles??? For that engine and that car it would benefit from an oil change every 3000 to 5000 miles. And why liquid Molly? The Amazon brand is just as good and does not cost nearly as much.

@BradleysGarage 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comments Steve, we are pretty sure the existing oil was there for more than 10k. We were helping our neighbor out on his Jetta for this video. VW recommends 10k interval for this car. Our preference is to perform them around 7500 miles. static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/MC-10123068-9999.pdf In regards to the oil brand, it comes down to personal preference. No idea who manufacturers the Amazon oil but we just stick with Torco or Liqui Moly on our cars. Our 2004 F150 uses Torco SD-5 15W-40 diesel oil since we got it at 77k miles. It now has 356k miles and runs perfectly. On that truck we change the oil every 10k miles. Cheers!
