The air filter is located in the air intake system of the engine.

It intercept particulate matter and debris in the intake air before it can be drawn into the engine’s combustion chambers.

If dirt particles end up in the engine due to clogged or dirty filters, they act like sandpaper, damaging components such as piston, rings, bearings, valves and cylinder walls.

The engine’s performance is directly dependent on how much air can be fed into the engine. The air filter has a controlling effect on air supply.

Air filters have a service life and should be regularly Inspected and replaced if necessary. If the service life is exceeded, then air flow decreases rapidly, resulting in poorer engine performance, as well as higher fuel consumption and emission levels.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Air Filters?

• Each VW Genuine Air Filter is matched specifically to each engine type so that filtering and air regulation can be precisely metered.
  
• Our Genuine Air Filters are highly reliable, as they ensure that the engine maintains optimum performance throughout service life.

A vehicle’s brakes (i.e. discs and pads) is its number one safety system and is absolutely essential for stopping and driving safety.

The braking system must perform flawlessly in order to ensure rapid and reliable responsiveness especially in hazardous situations.

Vehicle handling, vehicle weight, speed, and the quality of components all play a decisive role in the braking process.

If the brakes are worn down more on one side of the vehicle than the other, there may be a greater risk of skidding.

Brake discs and pads are subject to the most extreme wear and tear. If either of these two components are worn away, they should be replaced immediately.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Brakes?

• To ensure optimal safety across a wide range of operating and climatic conditions, our VW Genuine Brakes are designed specifically to match each vehicle’s weight, top speed and overall handling.
• As well as keeping safety intact, our Genuine Brakes can withstand punishing conditions, operate quietly and smoothly, and provide long service life.

‘See and be seen’ is the essential principle of traffic safety. In order to ensure that visibility and recognition occur before it’s too late, you need first-class lighting.

Almost half of all fatal accidents occur at night. A darkly clothed pedestrian, for example, will first be seen by an approaching motorist at a distance of 25 metres.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Headlights?

• Our VW Genuine Headlights are the only choice when it comes to your vehicle’s lighting needs.
• They are developed in a perfectly balanced manner maintaining constant light output in accordance with the ECE standards, while cheaply made bulbs often become clogged, resulting in weaker output.

Dust and pollen filters prevent pollen and fine dust from penetrating the vehicle interior. Pollen is not only a concern for people with allergies. If you sneeze while driving at 50 km/h, you’re flying blind for 13m, which could result in an accident.

If the filter is clogged, the air in the vehicle will contain more dust, soot and micro-organisms. This can cause fatigue which can lead to a lack of concentration while sitting at the wheel.

Blower performance can be reduced by clogged filters causing windows to fog up faster.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Dust & Pollen Filters?

• To maintain a comfortable and safe interior climate, our VW Genuine Dust and Pollen Filters offer effective removal of airborne contaminants.
• The filters consist of two layers: the first removes large dust and soot particles and the second removes a large number of fungal spores and harmful pollen.
• Our Genuine Dust & Pollen Filters remove gaseous pollutants, playing a big role in transforming ozone within the vehicle into oxygen and reducing overall odours.

Spark plugs are required to ignite a compressed mixture of fuel and air in the combustion chamber at a precisely defined moment. An ignition that occurs too early or too late can negatively affect performance and fuel consumption, and even cause engine damage.

Spark plugs need to produce an average of 3,500 sparks per minute while withstanding temperature changes of 100° to 3,000°C and pressure changes of 0.9 to 30 bar. At a certain point, used spark plugs can no longer manage this and therefore need to be replaced.

They are service parts and need to be replaced at specified intervals. When a vehicle is predominantly driven over short distances, or when the engine is often operated at maximum output, spark plug replacement intervals are shorter than specified. That’s why it is important to have them checked regularly.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Spark Plugs?

• Our VW Genuine Spark Plugs will ensure that the vehicle works reliably and at peak performance.
• They reduce the voltage required for ignition and offer greater reliability between the spark plugs’ replacement intervals.
• Smooth running performance, precise engine responsiveness and reduced fuel consumption are just some of the benefits of fitting Genuine Spark Plugs.

During its product lifecycle, the cam/timing belt covers an enormous distance inside the engine. This corresponds to more than six times around the globe.

Even after an extended service period, cam/timing belts should not stretch. If stretched, the engine timing would be off, resulting in a rise in fuel consumption and emissions.

If the cam/timing belt snaps, the pistons will strike the valves that are left open, bending or breaking them. At the very least, the repairs needed will be quite substantial and expensive and a cylinder head repair or replacement might be needed.

The cam/timing belt is a service part and its replacement interval is usually at the 120 000 km service. It is recommended to  check the cam/timing belt at regular intervals. It should be checked more often in severe operating conditions like dusty areas or in predominantly start/stop driving conditions.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Cam/Timing Belts?

• A part that is largely responsible for the precise operation of the vehicle’s engine, needs to adhere to a certain quality in manufacturing, which is exactly what is expected from German-engineered Genuine cam/timing belt. 
• Our VW Genuine cam/timing belts are made of high-strength synthetic glass fibres, with a wear-resistant coating, in order to withstand the rigours of frequent use and extreme climates. This will ensure consistent performance throughout service life.
• With impeccable heat and moisture resistance, our Genuine cam/timing belts are essential in prolonging engine life.

A VW Genuine windshield reduces the  risk of injury caused by glass shards in the event of an accident thanks to laminated safety glass.

It offers effective sun protection against UV-A- and UV-B rays, and an overheating of the vehicle interior.

A windshield must always afford impeccable visibility. After all, road safety is only possible for those who can see everything in front of them.

Along with its powerful adhesive, the windshield is an active, weight-bearing component of the vehicle’s body.

Even tiny holes, scratches or cracks can destroy the windshield’s complex structure, which consequently affects airbag functioning.

Upon deployment, the front passenger airbag is supported from behind, by the inner side of the windshield, which must therefore be capable of withstanding such a load.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Windshields?

• Our Genuine Windshields are the most precise fit available for your vehicle.
• Benefits include UV protection and easy repair.
  
• Increased comfort thanks to unobstructed view and ideal heat insulation and soundproofing.
• High protection of vehicle occupants due to laminated safety glass.

Wiper blades contribute significantly to traffic safety. Despite this, no other safety-related component receives so little attention.

The rear wiper blade wears out just like the front wiper blades. It is recommended to change all the wiper blades at the same time.

Our wiper blades are secure also up to 250 km/h*. The average wiper blade travels roughly 800 km across the surface of the windscreen every six months.

When wiper blades are damaged, they leave streaks or a dirty film on the windscreen, and they can squeak or skip across the glass.

Why choose Volkswagen Genuine Wiper Blades?

• Our VW Genuine Wiper Blades clean in all types of precipitation and temperatures and cause virtually no smears and noises while wiping.
• They are each perfectly adapted to the curvature of your vehicle’s VW Genuine Windshield, and offer a smooth glide and consistent performance.
• Each Genuine Wiper Blade includes an integrated wear indicator, so replacement can be anticipated timeously.
• They are long-lasting thanks to up to 30% less wear compared to Conventional standard wipers.
