Update: just changed oil in the beetle for the first time. Dude your video made it so easy. Thank you so much for this info. I ordered extra drain plugs and compression washers too. Simple and easy and saves so much money over having a dealer do it.

I was so ready to learn how to change my own oil in 2017 after a local shop charged me $90. I completely missed the fact I'd need a jack to make the underneath accessible! 😂 Still an interesting video, very helpful to at least have an idea of how it works.

Excellent video! Bought daughter a 2014 beetle convertible and due for first oil change since we bought it. Appreciate all this really well explained info. Definitely not used to changing oil in this thing.

Please remember to always, ALWAYS use jack stands. Working under a vehicle supported only by hydraulic floor jacks is just asking for trouble.

That reset piece was gold! I wonder why you don't level the car for complete drain and then relift? Can you advise re: my back-up and side alerts now do not default to "ON" every time I start the car after I have activated on previous drive. This started with new battery install. Previously the setting was always "ON", unless I changed it. Thank you!

When I lift the front of the car. It actually tilts the oil pan so the drain bolt is lower? So I feel I’m getting all of the oil out. I hope that makes sense. I don’t have an answer for the 2nd question you added. I do know vw’s act a little funny after a battery change. Like the windows auto lowering/raising when opening doors can be off. They fixed them selves after a few drives.

I have a 2016 VW Beetle convertible demin edition. Do those same bits work for it as well?

what's the best oil filter for my 2014 vw r-line beetle! thanks.

I'm wondering if it would be possible to cut an access hole through the skid plate to access the oil drain plug for easier, faster oil changes. What are your thoughts on this?

Honestly not a bad idea. Cut enough space to turn a ratchet. I’ve seen different 1/4 valves for Toyota trucks in place of the drain bolt. Wonder if someone has one for vw, that would be nice.

If you use an oil extraction pump you will have no need to go under the car. I've used a Pela 6000 for years. Since this car has the filter on top it makes the job super easy and clean.
