Preparing to work in the engine compartment

Opening or closing the engine compartment

Always position the vehicle on a firm and level surface before doing any work in the engine
compartment.

The engine compartment of a vehicle is a hazardous area. Never do any work on the engine or in the
engine compartment unless you

know exactly how to carry out the job,
have the correct technical information and the proper tools and supplies, and

are familiar with the necessary safety precautions

⇒

If you are uncertain in any way, have the work done by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an
authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Serious personal injury may result from improperly performed
work.

WARNING

Unintended vehicle movement during maintenance work can cause serious personal injuries.

Never work under the vehicle unless you have safely secured the vehicle from moving. If

you must work under the vehicle with the wheels on the ground, always make sure that the
vehicle is on level ground, that all 4 wheels are chocked to keep them from moving, and that
the key is not in the ignition.

If you must work under a vehicle raised on a floor jack, always make sure that the vehicle

is safely supported on safety stands intended for that purpose that are strong enough to
support the weight of the vehicle. The jack supplied with the vehicle is not strong enough for
this purpose and can collapse causing serious personal injury.

WARNING

The engine compartment of any motor vehicle is a potentially dangerous area and can cause
serious personal injury.

Always use extreme caution when doing any work in the engine compartment. Always

follow commonly accepted safety practices and use common sense. Never risk personal
injury.

Never perform any work in the engine compartment unless you know exactly how to carry

out the job and have the correct technical information and the correct tools.

If you are uncertain about what to do, have the work performed by an authorized

Volkswagen dealer, an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility, or another qualified
workshop. Serious personal injury may result from improperly performed work.

We strongly recommend that you always have HID – High Intensity Discharge (Xenon)

headlights and HB2 (H4) bulbs replaced by a qualified technician. Serious personal injury
may result from improperly performed work.

Never open or close the engine hood if steam or coolant is escaping. Hot steam or coolant

can cause serious burns. Always wait until you no longer see or hear steam or coolant
escaping from the engine.

Always let the engine cool down completely before carefully opening the hood.
Hot parts of the engine and the exhaust system will burn skin on contact.

When the engine has cooled down and you are ready to open the hood:

– Firmly apply the parking brake and shift the transmission into Park (P) (automatic) or
Neutral (manual only).

– Take the vehicle key out of the ignition.

– On vehicles with Keyless Access, make sure that the remote control vehicle key is out
of range of the vehicle and that the vehicle cannot be started by depressing the starter

button

⇒ Starter button.

– Always keep children and others away from the engine compartment and never leave
them unsupervised.

The engine coolant system is under pressure when the engine is hot. Never unscrew the

coolant expansion tank cap when the engine is hot. Hot coolant can spray out and cause
severe burns and other serious injuries.

– Turn the cap slowly and very carefully in a counterclockwise direction while applying
light downward pressure on the top of the cap.

– Always protect your face, hands, and arms from hot escaping coolant or steam by
covering the cap with a large, thick rag.

Never spill fluids on the engine or exhaust system when refilling. Spilling fluids onto hot

parts of the engine or exhaust system can cause a fire.

WARNING

High voltage systems in the engine compartment can cause electrical shocks or even
electrocution, severe burns, other serious injuries, and even death!

Never short-circuit the electrical system. Be especially careful when using jumper cables.

The vehicle's battery could explode!

To reduce the risk of electrical shock and personal injury while the engine is running or

being started:

– Never touch ignition cables. Never touch other components of the high voltage
electronic ignition system.

– Never touch the wiring of the HID – High Intensity Discharge (Xenon) headlights.

Read and heed the important information and warnings on cleaning the engine

compartment

⇒ Cleaning the engine compartment.

WARNING

Moving parts in the engine compartment can cause serious personal injury on contact.

Never reach into the area around or touch the radiator fan. Contact with the blades can

cause serious personal injury. Always remember that the radiator fan is temperature-
controlled and can come on suddenly even when the engine has been switched off for a while
and the key has been removed from the ignition.

If you have to perform a check or repair when the engine is running, there are more risks

from the rotating parts, such as the drive belts, alternator, radiator fan, etc., and from the
high-voltage ignition system. Always use extreme care.

– Always make sure that jewelry, loose clothing and long hair do not get caught in
rotating engine parts. Before starting any work remove your jewelry, take off your necktie,
tie back and cover your hair, and do not wear clothing that can hang down and get caught
in moving engine parts.

– Always use extreme caution if the accelerator pedal has to be depressed to perform a
check. The vehicle will start to move even if the parking brake is on.

Never leave any objects in the engine compartment, for example cleaning rags and tools.

Objects left behind can cause malfunctions, engine damage, and even fires.

WARNING

Additional materials in the engine compartment such as blankets can interfere with the
operation of the engine and can cause fires, which can lead to serious injuries.

Never cover the engine with blankets or other materials.

WARNING

Operating fluids and some materials in the engine compartment can catch fire easily, causing
burns and other serious personal injuries!

  Never smoke near the engine compartment.
  Never work next to open flames or sparks.
  Never pour or spill operating fluids or other flammable liquids on the engine. These fluids

can ignite on hot engine parts and cause injuries.

If work on the fuel system or the electrical system is necessary:

– Always disconnect the 12 Volt vehicle battery. Make sure the vehicle is unlocked when
you disconnect the battery, or the alarm will go off. Never touch the electrical wiring of the
ignition system.

– Never work near heaters, water heaters, or other open flames.

Always have a functional, approved fire extinguisher nearby.

NOTICE

When changing or topping off fluids, make sure that you pour the fluids into the correct
reservoirs. Adding the wrong type of operating fluids will cause serious malfunctions and
engine damage.

Fluid leaks and spills are harmful to the environment. Regularly check the ground underneath

your vehicle for this reason. If you find spots of oil or other fluids, have your vehicle checked by your
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Dispose of leaked operating
fluids properly.

Engine oil specifications

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

The engine oil used must conform to exact specifications.

Using the proper engine oil is important for the functionality and service life of the engine. Your engine
was factory-filled with a high-quality multi-grade oil which can usually be used throughout the entire
year.

Engine oils are constantly being improved. Authorized Volkswagen dealers and authorized
Volkswagen Service Facilities are always up-to-date regarding new developments and changes.
Volkswagen therefore recommends that you have the engine oil changed by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

Engine oil quality is based not only on requirements for engines and exhaust treatment systems, but
also on fuel quality. Engine oil comes into contact with fuel and fuel residue in all internal combustion
engines, causing engine oil to age and its lubricating qualities to deteriorate.

Your engine was factory-filled with a high-quality, “synthetic” all-season engine oil that meets strict
Volkswagen oil quality standards and has a viscosity grade of SAE 5W-40. or SAE 5W-30. You can
use this oil for normal driving in all temperatures.

If you need to add oil between oil changes, use only a high quality oil that expressly complies with the
Volkswagen oil quality standard specified for your vehicle's engine:

Engines

Engine oil specification

Gasoline engines

VW 502 00
VW 503 00
VW 504 00

Diesel engines

VW 507 00

At the time this Manual was printed, the engine oils available in the U.S. that meet these Volkswagen
standards are “synthetic” oils. This does not mean, however, that any “synthetic” engine oil will meet
Volkswagen standards. Always use an approved oil that expressly complies with the Volkswagen oil
quality standard that applies to your vehicle's engine.

General recommendations:

If “synthetic” oil that meets the applicable Volkswagen oil quality standard with viscosity grade
SAE 5W-40 or SAE 5W-30 is not available in your area, be sure to use a viscosity grade suitable for
the climate, season, and operating conditions that exist where the vehicle is used. Make sure the oil
meets the quality standard listed in

NOTICE

If you need to add oil and there is none available that meets the Volkswagen oil quality

standard your engine requires, you may add a total of no more than 1/2 quart (0.5 liter) of a
high-quality “synthetic” oil that meets ACEA A3 specifications and has a viscosity grade of
SAE 5W-40 or SAE 5W-30.

Use only a high quality engine oil that expressly complies with the Volkswagen oil quality

standard specified for your vehicle's engine. Using any other oil can cause serious engine
damage that will not be covered by any Volkswagen Limited Warranty.

Do not mix any lubricants or other additives into the engine oil. Doing so can cause engine

damage! Damage caused by these kinds of additives are not covered by any Volkswagen
Limited Warranty.

. Contact an authorized

Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Otherwise the catalytic
converter and engine can be damaged!

When changing or topping off fluids, make sure that you pour the fluids into the correct

reservoirs. Adding the wrong type of operating fluids will cause serious malfunctions and
engine damage.

The engine oil level should never be in range

. Otherwise oil can be drawn in by the

crankcase ventilation system and enter the atmosphere via the exhaust system.

Engine oil consumption

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

To provide effective lubrication and cooling for internal engine parts, all internal combustion engines
use some oil. Oil consumption varies from engine to engine and may change over the life of the
engine. Engines tend to use more oil during the break-in period than they do afterward, when oil
consumption has stabilized.

Under normal conditions, the rate of oil consumption depends on oil quality as well as viscosity, engine
speed (rpm), outside temperature, road conditions, the amount of oil dilution caused by condensed
water or fuel residue, and oxidation of the oil. Oil consumption may increase with engine wear over
time, until replacement of worn engine parts may become necessary.

Volkswagen recommends that you to check the engine oil level at regular intervals, preferably every
time you fill the fuel tank, and always before a long trip. Your vehicle may consume engine oil
depending on several variables. A maximum of 1 quart per 1200 miles (1 liter per 2000 km) would be
considered normal. New vehicles may consume more oil over the first 3000 miles (5000 km).

The oil pressure warning light is not an indicator of low engine oil level. If the warning light
stays on or flashes while driving (above 1500 rpm), a chime will sound. It indicates that the oil
pressure is too low. Stop the engine immediately, check the engine oil level and add oil if
necessary. If the engine oil level is normal, but the light continues to flash, do not keep driving
or let the engine idle, as damage may occur.

If you believe your engine uses too much oil, we recommend that you consult your authorized
Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility so that the cause of your concern can
be properly diagnosed. Please keep in mind that accurate measurement of oil consumption requires
great care and may take some time. Your authorized Volkswagen dealer and authorized Volkswagen
Service Facility have instructions for how to measure oil consumption accurately.

Depending on the way the vehicle is driven and the operating conditions, oil consumption can be

up to 1 quart per 1200 miles (0.5 liter per 1000 km). Consumption may be higher for new vehicles
during the first 3000 miles (5000 km).

Changing engine oil

Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

The engine oil must be changed according to the intervals specified in your

⇒ Booklet

Warranty and

Maintenance.
Changing oil at regular intervals is very important because the lubricating properties of oil decrease
gradually during normal vehicle use. If you are not sure when to have the oil changed, ask your
authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

Sometimes, engine oil should be changed more often than specified for normal use. Change oil more
frequently if you often drive short distances, in dusty areas or in stop-and-go traffic, or if you use your
vehicle where temperatures stay below freezing for long periods.

Volkswagen recommends that you have your oil and oil filter changed by an authorized Volkswagen

dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility

⇒

. They have the required expertise and

special tools and will dispose of the old oil properly.

Detergent additives in the oil will make fresh oil look dark after the engine has been running a short
time. This is normal and no reason to change engine oil more often.

WARNING

If you must change the engine oil yourself, be sure to take the following precautions:

Always wear eye protection.
To reduce the risk of burns from hot engine oil, let the engine cool down completely

before beginning.

When removing the oil drain plug with your fingers, stay as far away as possible. Always

keep your forearm parallel to the ground to help prevent hot oil from running down your arm.

Drain the oil into a container designed for this purpose, one large enough to hold at least

the total amount of oil in your engine.

To reduce the risk of poisoning, never drain the oil into empty food or beverage

containers that might mislead someone into drinking from them.

Engine oil is poisonous and must be stored out of the reach of children.
Continuous contact with used engine oil is harmful to your skin. Always protect your skin

by washing thoroughly with soap and water.

Before changing the oil, first make sure you know where you can properly dispose of the old oil.

Dispose of the old oil an environmentally-responsible manner. Never dump the old oil on garden

soil, in wooded areas, in the street, into streams, rivers, or bodies of water, or down sewage drains.

Recycle used oil by taking it to a collection facility for used engine oil in your area, or contact an

authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

Volkswagen recommends that you always have your oil and oil filter changed by an authorized

Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. They have the required expertise
and special tools and will dispose of the old oil properly.
