Look for one of these symbols on the front of the oil container, and use only oils that display these symbols.
Engine oil additives:
VOLKSWAGEN does not recommend the use of oil additives. They may adversely affect your New Vehicle Warranty.
Engine oil consumption:
The rate of the oil consumption depends on the quality and viscosity of oil, the speed at which the engine is operated, the climate, and road conditions as
well as amount of dilution and oxidation of the lubricant.
Because of these variables, no standard rate of oil consumption can be established, but drivers should expect higher oil consumption at high speeds and
when the engine is new.
Notes:
^ The engine in your vehicle depends on oil to lubricate and cool all of its moving parts. Therefore the engine oil should be checked regularly and kept at
the required level.
^ Make it a habit to have the engine oil level checked with every fuel filling.
^ Lack of sufficient engine oil may lead to severe engine damage.
^ The oil pressure warning light is not an oil level indicator.
Always heed all WARNINGS.
