Service First
What We Do for Your Volkswagen
From a standard minor service to a full major service and DSG work, Fangio Auto covers the complete spectrum of VW maintenance and repair.
Scheduled Servicing
Minor and major services to VW spec: oil, filters, plugs, fluids and inspection, with the service light reset correctly afterward.
Service Plan & Specials
On-plan or out-of-plan, we service properly and quote up front, and run service specials.
TSI / TDI Engine Diagnostics
We read VW fault codes on 1.0 TSI, 1.4 TSI, 2.0 TDI and older 1.6 engines to pinpoint issues early.
DSG Gearbox Service
DSG dual-clutch transmissions (Golf, Polo GTI, Tiguan) need a proper mechatronic and fluid service on schedule. We do it correctly.

VW Service & Repair FAQs
Will servicing my VW with Fangio void my warranty?
No. Servicing to VW's schedule with correct parts and a stamped record keeps your warranty intact under right-to-repair rules.
Can you reset the VW Polo service light after a service?
Yes, we reset the service interval indicator correctly as part of every service.
Do you service the DSG gearbox?
Yes. DSG transmissions need a scheduled fluid and mechatronic service; skipping it causes jerky shifts and faults. We do the full service.
Can you service my VW if it's out of its service plan?
Yes, quoted up front before work starts. We service to spec and quote up front.
Where are you based?
Two branches: Randburg (Johannesburg) and Hermanus (Overberg). Pick your branch on our contact page.
