Okay, so all is well then one day my oil light goes on and the car starts beeping and it tells me I can’t drive it anymore or I might have an engine failure. We have it towed to a garage that tells me the engine is almost dry. I had just within 30 days had the oil and filter changed. So we complained, thinking the garage didn’t fill up the oil correctly and they filled up the oil.
Two weeks go by and the exact thing happens again. So we check the oil and it’s very low and burnt , dirty and looks to be 2 years old. VW says it’s normal for their cars to burn oil every 1200 miles. I’m a stay home Mom and I drive maybe 100 miles a week and I have to add oil every two weeks. It’s getting expensive spending $50 a month to keep this car running.
