Volkswagen T-Roc Oil Type Finder

The T-Roc is actually a Golf on stilts and yet it comes across as more youthful than its flatter brother. That is why it is also popular with young families, because the compact SUV offers a good amount of space inside despite its compact dimensions. As you would expect from VW, the T-Roc remains a reasonable everyday companion that offers a lot of safety and comfort.

As the concept vehicle of the T-Roc 2014 could be seen at the Geneva Motor Show, there was no way of knowing how big the success of the Golf SUV would be. The production version of the VW T-Roc has been in production since 2017 and has enjoyed great popularity ever since. As the first compact SUV from Wolfsburg with plenty of space and compact dimensions, it has made its way into the mass market.

Those who opt for the T-Roc have a choice of two different vehicle types, because the compact SUV is available as a classic SUV with advantages such as a raised seating position and also as a convertible for sun worshipers on warm summer days. Both variants have their advantages and disadvantages.

Motor oil is a vital part of your Volkswagen T-Roc's engine. It provides the much needed lubrication to many of the internal parts of an engine. One of its key jobs is to prevent wear and tear on the moving parts which helps keep the engine running smoothly. Without oil, the engine would cease up almost immediately.

Regularly checking and changing your Volkswagen T-Roc engine oil is really important. Every time you start and run your car, very fine by-products from the combustion in the engine will be collected in the engine oil. This is one of the reasons why over time the oil goes black. If these contaminants build up too much and exceed the capacity of the oil it can have a negative impact on your car’s overall efficiency and actually effect its performance as it creates sludge and increased wear in the engine block.

Every engine oil will have its viscosity grade labelled on the packaging. This will look something like 0W-20, 5W-30 or 5W-40. This grading is used to measure how thick / fluid the oil is and help ensure you buy the right oil for your car. The lower the viscosity grade of the oil, the more fluid and thinner it will be than those with a high grade (higher numbers) which will be much less running and thick.

So which engine oil should you buy for your Volkswagen T-Roc? Whether you are topping up your Volkswagen T-Roc oil or doing a full change of your Volkswagen T-Roc's oil it is really important that you use the correct grade of oil.

VW T-Roc Variants

SUV - Due to its space and the good overview, an SUV is no longer just popular as an off-road vehicle. Some models even replace the once popular van as a family car or as a replacement for a compact car where you have to live with a low seating position. If the T-Roc is too small for you, VW has other SUV models on offer.

Convertible - New for 2020 is the T-Roc Cabrio. A convertible SUV is interesting for everyone who wants to combine practicality with fresh air enjoyment and who also wants to have enough luggage with them on their vacation and want to enjoy the sun at the same time. Unfortunately, the T-Roc Cabrio is currently the only convertible model from VW, so the choice is easy.
