Engine oil: replenishing
4.39.1 Notes on engines with turbocharger
After the engine oil has been changed and the oil filter has been
renewed, observe the following when starting the engine for the
first time:
♦ The engine must only run at idling speed as long as the oil
pressure warning lamp lights up in dash panel.
♦ Do not rev up!
♦ The full oil pressure is not attained until the warning lamp
has gone out. Only then can the engine be revved up.
NOTICE
If the engine is revved up the turbocharger can be damaged
or fail completely. Since the turbocharger runs at very high
speeds, the bearings may fail within seconds in the event of
inadequate lubrication.
If leaks, vibrations and unusual noises are encountered on the
turbocharger, immediately switch off the engine.
4.39.2 Engine oil: draining and renewing oil
filter, 1.4 l TSI and 1.5 l TSI engines
NOTICE
♦ Catalytic converter damage due to excessive engine oil in
the engine. Too much oil remains after extracting.
♦ Always drain engine oil. Vacuum extraction is not allowed.
