Frequently asked questions about Volkswagen fuel tank repair & replacements
Read our answers to questions about fuel tank repair costs, symptoms and more.
What does a fuel tank replacement on my Volkswagen involve?
A mechanic will assess the situation around the fuel tank, they will then extract the fuel and remove the old tank. A new tank will be fitted, and advise will be provided on other parts that may need replacing. They will then make sure the fuel tank works and isn't leaking, finally a test drive will be carried if this is found to be necessary.
What are the symptoms of a faulty Volkswagen fuel tank?
Fuel tanks will usually show problems when they begin to leak. This may not be all the time, and can be caused at high speeds by the rattling of other components. Leaking can cause damage to other parts of your vehicle, and it will obviously hurt the fuel consumption of your vehicle.
How long will a fuel tank replacement take on my Volkswagen?
A fuel tank replacement usually takes around 3 hours, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Volkswagen fuel tank?
Fuel tanks will not need replacing unless they are faulty. Many fuel tanks are custom produced specifically for each model and housed near the rear axle, away from areas of the car that are easily damaged in the event of a crash. Recently manufacturers of fuel tanks have started to use high density plastics which are customised to maximise the fuel capacity.
How much does it cost to fix a fuel tank leak on Volkswagen?
A fuel tank leak repair cost can range between £200 up to even £2000 as it differs from each scenario of how bad the damage is as well as the make and model of the car.
Can local garages offer home collection and delivery for Volkswagen fuel tank repair?
Yes, many local garages are able to offer collection and delivery for a fuel tank repair on your Volkswagen. With ClickMechanic collection & delivery is free if your vehicle is drivable. Once booked a mechanic will pick up the vehicle on the day and time of your choice, do the work, and return the vehicle at a time convenient to you.
