Engine oil
Choosing the correct engine oil grade
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 ac
cordance with VW standards. You will need to
know whether
- the vehicle is being serviced based on the flexi
ble or fixed oil change service (see Last service
record in Service Schedule).
- the vehicle has a petrol or diesel engine (see
sticker on inside of fuel tank flap).
- a diesel particulate filter is fitted on the vehicle
(see Delivery Inspection section of Service
Schedule).

Checking the engine oil level

Checking oil level
.,. Park your vehicle on a Level surface.
.,. Allow the warm engine to run briefly at idling
speed and then switch off the ignition.
.,. Wait approx. two minutes.
.,. Pull out the dipstick. Wipe the dipstick with a
clean cloth and insert it again, pushing it in as
far as it will go.
.,. Then pull the dipstick out again and check the
oil level ¢ Fig. 212. If the oi L Level is too Low,
add more engine oil¢ page 224.

Depending on how you drive and the conditions
in which the car is used, oil consumption can be
up to 0.5 Ltr./1000 km. Oil consumption is Likely
to be higher for the first 5000 km. For this rea
son the engine oil Level must be checked at regu
lar intervals, preferably when filling the tank and
before a journey.

.. Replace the oil filler cap carefully and push the
dipstick all the way in.
_& WARNING
- Ensure that no oil comes into contact with
hot engine components when topping up:
this could cause a fire.
- Wash your skin thoroughly if it comes into
contact with engine oil.
CD CAUTION
- The oil Level must never be above area 0, as
this may result in damage to the catalytic
converter or to the engine. Contact a qua Li-
224 fied
workshop to extract the engine oil if
necessary
- No additives should be used with engine oil.
Any damage caused by the use of such addi
tives would not be covered by the factory
warranty.
@ For the sake of the environment
- Never pour oil down drains or into the
ground.
- Always observe statutory requirements
when disposing of empty oil canisters.
Cooling system
Coolant
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory
with a mixture of conditioned water and coolant
additive. This coolant must not be changed.
The coolant Level is monitored via a warning Lamp
on the infotainment display ¢page 12. However,
we re com mend that it shou Ld be checked occa
sionally.
If you do need to top up the coolant, use a mix
ture of water and coolant additive. We recom
mend mixing coolant additive with distilled wa
ter .
Coolant additive
The coolant additive contains anti-freeze and cor
rosion protection agent. Only use one of the fol
lowing coolant additives. It is possible to mix
these additives.
Coolant additive Specification

Only if the above
grades are not availa- TL

ble: G12+
The amount of coolant additive which needs to
be mixed with the water depends on the temper
atures to be expected in the winter season. If the
anti-freeze concentration is too Low, the coolant
can freeze and cause engine damage.

CD CAUTION
- Have your qualified workshop check the
cooling system before the winter season to
make sure that the anti-freeze concentra
tion is adequate for the conditions to be ex
pected. This applies particularly if you drive
into a colder climate zone.
- To prevent damage to the engine, do not
use a different type of anti-freeze additive if
the approved type of additive is not availa
ble. In this case use only water and bring
the coolant concentration back up to the
correct level as soon as possible by putting
in the specified additive.
- Always top up with fresh, unused coolant.
- Radiator sealants must not be added to the
coolant.
Topping up coolant
Fig. 214 Engine compartment: Cap of coolant expansion
tank
Checking coolant level
.. Park
your vehicle on a level surface .
.. Switch off the ignition .
.. Read off the coolant level on the coolant expan
sion tank ¢ page 222, Fig. 211. When the en
gine is cold, the coolant level should be be
tween the marks. When the engine is warm, it
may be slightly above the top mark. Checking
and topping up fluids
Topping up coolant
Impor tant: The coolant expansion tank must not
be empty ¢(D.
.. Wait for the engine to cool down.
.. Cover the cap on the expansion tank with a
cloth, and carefully unscrew the cap anti-clock
wise ¢ .&_ .
.. Add coolant in the correct concentration
¢ page 224 up to the top mark.
.. You should make sure that the fluid level re-
mains stable. If necessary, add more coolant.
.. Screw the cap on again tightly.
Any loss of coolant normally indicates a leak in
the cooling system. Drive to a qualified workshop
without delay and have the cooling system
checked. If there are no leaks in the system, a
loss of coolant can only occur if the coolant boils
and is forced out of the system as a result of
overheating.
A WARNING
- The cooling system is under pressure. Do
not unscrew the cap on the expansion tank
when the engine is hot: you could be scal
ded by escaping steam.
- The coolant and coolant additive can be a
health hazard. Store the coolant additive in
the original container in a safe place out of
reach of children -risk of poisoning.
- When working in the engine compartment
be aware that the radiator fan may start
running suddenly, even if the ignition is
switched off-risk of injury!
CD CAUTION
Do not add coolant if the expansion tank is
empty. Air could have got into the cooling sys
tem -risk of engine damage! In this case, do
NOT drive on. Obtain professional assistance .

- Inspection or oil change reminder: After acer
tain mileage, a service reminder will appear on
the infotainment display each time the ignition
is switched on/off¢ Fig. 218. The distance or
time remaining will be shown briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: When your vehi
cle is due for an inspection, oil change or both,
the corresponding reminder Inspection due!,
Oil change due! or Oil change and inspection
due! will appear briefly after you switch the ig
nition on/off.
Checking the service intervals
You can look up the distance and time remaining
until the next oil change and next service inspec
tion. Select the following on the infotainment
system: I MENU I button > Car > left control button
> Se rvicing & checks > Service intervals. You can
not check the service interval for the first 500 km
or so after resetting the display or when your ve
hicle is new.
CD CAUTION
- Keeping to the correct service intervals is
most important for the service life and re
sidual value of the vehicle (and especially
for the life of the engine). Services must al
ways be carried out promptly, even if the
mileage is low.
- The time until the next oil change is not
counted down if the battery is disconnec
ted. If your vehicle is out of service for an
extended period, please refer to the Service
Schedule for details of the next service
date.
