Maintaining the performance and longevity of your VW Golf Mk1 hinges on using the right oils and fluids. At Heritage Parts Centre, we know how crucial it is to keep your classic car running smoothly, which is why we offer a comprehensive range of high-quality oils and fluids specifically selected for the Golf Mk1. From essential engine oils to vital brake fluids, our products are designed to meet the exacting standards of Volkswagen enthusiasts.
Proper lubrication is essential to ensure the smooth operation of your Mk1 Golf engine. We stock a variety of engine oils from trusted brands like Castrol, Morris, and Quantum, each carefully chosen to provide the protection your classic engine needs. It’s important to follow your workshop manual for the correct oil specifications and quantities to keep your engine running at its best.
In addition to engine oils, our selection of antifreeze helps regulate your engine’s temperature, preventing overheating in summer and freezing in winter. Using the right coolant is vital to avoid costly repairs down the line.
We also carry a variety of brake fluids that are essential for the safe operation of your vehicle. Given that brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air, it’s crucial to replace it regularly to prevent internal corrosion of your brake lines and components. For the best performance and safety, be sure to check and replace your Golf Mk1 brake fluid as recommended.
For those often-overlooked but equally important tasks, we provide gearbox oils that can significantly improve your driving experience by ensuring smoother gear changes. Although it might not be a frequent maintenance item, replacing your Mk1 Golf gearbox oil according to the manufacturer’s recommendations can make a noticeable difference in performance.
Our selection also includes grease and assembly oils for various maintenance tasks, as well as screenwash to keep your windshield clear in all weather conditions. Don’t forget about your steering system—our steering fluids ensure that your Golf Mk1 handles with precision and ease.
A well-prepared workshop isn't complete without essentials like brake cleaner for cleaning parts during repairs and absorbent granules for managing spills. These products are indispensable for maintaining a clean and efficient workspace.
