The Volkswagen Beetle is one of the most recognisable cars in history, loved for its quirky style and loyal following. While the modern Beetle was discontinued in Australia in 2017, plenty are still on Brisbane roads. At Bosch Service Brisbane, we provide expert Volkswagen Beetle service for both newer retro-inspired models and earlier generations, ensuring your Beetle stays fun, reliable and safe to drive.

At Bosch Service Brisbane, we understand the unique needs of the Volkswagen Beetle and regularly assist owners with services such as:
We follow Volkswagen’s recommended service schedule for the Beetle, ensuring every oil change, filter replacement and inspection is completed on time. This keeps your Beetle running reliably and helps preserve its value.
The Beetle is often used for city driving, which means frequent stop-start braking. We provide complete VW Beetle brakes service, including pad and disc replacement, brake fluid flushing and ABS system checks to ensure your car stops safely.
Modern Beetles come equipped with advanced electronics and infotainment systems that place extra demand on the battery. Our VW Beetle battery service includes testing, replacement and alternator checks to avoid flat batteries and warning lights.
Many Beetles develop cooling system issues around 80,000–100,000km, with water pump and thermostat failures being common. We can replace faulty components and flush the coolant system to prevent overheating and engine damage.
The Beetle is known for occasional electrical gremlins, from faulty sensors to dashboard warning lights. Using Volkswagen-specific scan tools, we quickly identify the cause and carry out repairs to restore confidence in your car.
When your Beetle shows a service reminder, we not only perform the required maintenance but also complete a proper VW Beetle service reset, so your dashboard and logbook reflect the correct next interval.
Volkswagen recommends servicing the Beetle every 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first. At Bosch Service Brisbane, we follow the official VW Beetle service schedule and tailor our approach to the way you use your car. From minor oil and filter changes through to major inspections at 60,000km and 120,000km, our European-trained technicians carry out every job to factory standards.
Brakes are one of the most important safety systems in your Beetle. Our VW Beetle brakes service includes inspection of pads, discs and brake fluid. We also offer dedicated VW Beetle brake pads service, replacing worn pads with genuine or OEM parts to restore safe stopping performance. If you have noticed squealing, vibration or longer stopping distances, it is time to have your Beetle’s brakes checked.
Many modern Beetles are fitted with a range of electronics that place extra load on the battery. In Brisbane’s hot climate, batteries typically last 3–4 years. Our VW Beetle battery service includes testing, replacement and alternator checks to ensure your car starts first time, every time. If you are experiencing slow cranking or dashboard warning lights, we can quickly diagnose and resolve the issue.
We believe in clear and transparent pricing. The VW Beetle service cost will depend on the type of service required, from a simple oil change through to a full 100,000km inspection. We provide upfront quotes before any work begins so you always know what to expect.
After each service, we reset your Beetle’s service indicator so it accurately reflects your next interval. If you have seen a reminder and are unsure how to perform a VW Beetle service reset, our team can take care of it when we complete your logbook service.
Every Beetle comes with a VW Beetle service manual, which outlines the required service intervals and maintenance tasks. At Bosch Service Brisbane, we follow the same guidelines as Volkswagen dealers to ensure your Beetle is maintained correctly. This keeps your car reliable and helps preserve its resale value.
Our commitment to customer service, extensive experience in the field, and high-quality workmanship are just a few reasons why Brisbane residents trust us with their European cars.
