The service interval display in the instrument cluster of your vehicle will inform you when it is time for an oil change. We recommend having the oil changed by a qualified workshop.
If you have to top up the oil between oil changes, use the grades of oil specified in the table in accordance with VW standards.
You will need to know whether
- the vehicle is being serviced based on the flexible or fixed oil change service (see last service record).
- the vehicle has a petrol or diesel engine (see sticker on inside of fuel tank flap).
