2016 Volkswagen Jetta Oil Capacity

The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta with the 1.4 TSI engine has an oil capacity of 4.2 qt and uses 5W-30 oil. These figures apply to the engine listed in the facts, not necessarily to every Jetta configuration.

Read the capacity as the amount of oil specified for that engine, and the grade as the recommended oil viscosity. Capacity and oil requirements can vary by engine or trim, so confirm the correct specification for your vehicle if it does not have the 1.4 TSI engine. If you need a figure that is not listed here, check the door jamb or the owner's manual.
