Burlington Volkswagen is a proud provider of a full range of Volkswagen services, parts and accessories. Our maintenance department is always ready to tackle tire issues to keep your vehicle rolling safely. From the basics of patches and repairs to full replacements, we are here to help.
When you experience a slow leak in one or more tires, it is possible a repair is needed versus a full replacement. Drop by our service center, and we can check for nails, other punctures, and issues such as rim leaks between the edge of the tire and wheel. After a patch or repair, we reinflate your tires to the appropriate level and double-check for any other problems. When your tire cannot be repaired, we will let you know and discuss your options. Should you need replacements, we have the best assortment of tires for sale near Bristol, PA, and can assist with installation and ongoing tire care.
At a tire inspection at Burlington Volkswagen, we give everything a look. First, we go with the basics of pressure checks and measuring tread depth to determine if your tires are nearing the end of their useful life. We also double-check the wear patterns to see if they are pointing to any other issues with the vehicle, such as the need for an alignment or balancing.
Tires need to be rotated at 3,000 miles after installation and then approximately every 5,000 miles after. When you purchase new tires, always defer to the manufacturer’s recommended best practices or your Volkswagen manual for the preferred rotation schedule. It’s always a good idea to couple rotations with your oil changes to ensure both happen in a timely fashion.
A tire balancing service helps you ensure weight is evenly distributed across the tire and wheel. A machine is used to spin your tires and determine the amount of the imbalance and make precise recommendations. We then use tire weights to adjust. This service is recommended annually and couples nicely with our next service, the wheel alignment.
Also a yearly appointment, the wheel alignment ensures your wheels are all positioned properly. A machine reviews the preferred measurements for your vehicle, and minute adjustments are made to correct issues. The ideal is for all your wheels to sit at the appropriate angle when compared with one another and other set points on the vehicle.
