Jetta VS5's first maintenance is at 5,000 kilometers. The maintenance schedule for the Jetta VS5 is similar to that of regular cars, with the first maintenance recommended at 5,000 kilometers or approximately six months. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. Modern car maintenance mainly includes the maintenance scope of the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. The Jetta VS5 is the first SUV model under the Jetta brand, with a body length, width, and height of 4419mm, 1841mm, and 1616mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2630mm.
I previously drove a Jetta VS5, and the recommended mileage for the first maintenance is between 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers, preferably around 7,500 kilometers. Remember, after buying a new car, once you reach this mileage, you should go to a 4S shop or a professional repair center to check the engine oil, filters, and key components. That time, I drove 6,000 kilometers before getting it serviced, and it turned out there was some engine oil consumption. The maintenance technician said that during the break-in period of a new car, you should be more diligent with maintenance; otherwise, it might harm the engine in the long run. When driving, always pay attention to the dashboard alerts and don’t delay too long—safety comes first. Developing a habit of regular maintenance can make your car run more smoothly and extend its lifespan.
