available at all workshops
The Volkswagen Passat has long been a favourite in Brisbane, known for its comfort, practicality and solid European engineering. While Volkswagen has recently discontinued the Passat in Australia, many are still on the road and need reliable servicing. At Bosch Service Brisbane, we provide expert care for every generation of the Passat, from earlier sedans to the more recent wagons and performance trims.
Your statutory new-car warranty is kept intact when you service your vehicle at our Brisbane workshops
Volkswagen Passats are well-engineered, but like many European cars they develop some predictable issues as they age. At Bosch Service Brisbane, we regularly see:
Heavy sedans like the Passat put extra load on brakes, leading to faster wear of pads and discs. We replace worn components and carry out fluid flushes every two years as per Volkswagen’s recommendation.
Many Passats use the dual-clutch DSG gearbox, which requires fluid and filter changes every 60,000km to avoid hesitation, shuddering or complete failure.
Water pumps and thermostats are known weak points, with leaks often appearing around 80,000–100,000km. We replace these with genuine or OEM parts to keep your engine running cool.
Later Passat models use an electronic parking brake that can trigger warning lights or fail to engage. Our diagnostic tools allow us to reset, repair or replace faulty modules.
For diesel Passat owners, blocked DPFs can cause reduced performance or warning lights. We can clean, regenerate or replace the filter as needed.
When your dashboard shows “Service Now” on your VW Passat, it’s time for immediate maintenance. We’ll complete the required checks and reset the service indicator.
If your Passat’s dashboard displays “Service Now”, it means your car has reached a scheduled interval and requires immediate attention. This reminder is based on time and distance, so even if the car feels fine, it’s important not to ignore it. At Bosch Service Brisbane, we can reset the service light after carrying out the required checks, giving you peace of mind that your Passat is properly maintained.
The VW Passat service schedule is designed to cover all the critical components of your car over time. Minor services at 15,000km intervals focus on fluids, filters and safety inspections, while major services at 60,000km, 90,000km and 120,000km include spark plugs, timing belt (for some petrol engines), DSG transmission servicing and coolant replacement. We’ll guide you through what’s due at your next visit so you always know exactly what’s being done.
At Bosch Service Brisbane, we specialise in European vehicles, offering a level of expertise that general workshops can’t match. Our technicians use Volkswagen-specific diagnostic equipment and genuine or OEM-quality parts to ensure every job is done right. We’re transparent with pricing, provide detailed quotes before starting work, and our servicing is logbook compliant to protect your warranty and resale value. With multiple workshop locations across Brisbane, it’s easy to service your VW Passat with confidence.
Your brakes are one of the most important safety systems on your Passat. Over time, pads and discs wear and brake fluid absorbs moisture, reducing stopping performance. Our VW Passat brakes service includes measuring pad and rotor thickness, checking ABS sensors, and replacing brake fluid every two years in line with Volkswagen’s recommendations. If you’ve noticed squealing, vibrations or longer stopping distances, it’s time to book in before it becomes a bigger problem.
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.
