Viscosity of motor oils
At the factory, the engine is filled with special high-quality multigrade oil, which is suitable, with the exception of extremely cold climatic zones, for operation in all seasons.
When adding oil to the engine, it is also possible to add oil of one specification to oil of another specification. The viscosity grade of the oil should be selected according to the data in the figure. If the air temperature is only briefly outside the temperature limits given here, the oil should not be changed.
Gasoline engines
The table of viscosity of motor oils is shown in fig. Viscosity of motor oils.
A - all-weather oils with increased anti-friction properties, specification VW 500 00.
B - multigrade oils, VW 501 01 specification and multigrade oils, API-SF or SG specifications.
Diesel engines
The table of viscosity of motor oils is shown in fig. Viscosity of motor oils.
A - all-weather oils with enhanced anti-friction properties, specification VW 500 00 (for turbocharged diesel engines only in mixtures with specification VW 505 00).
B - all-weather oils, specification VW 505 00 (unlimited for all diesel engines), multigrade oils, API-CD specification (for turbocharged diesel engines only in case of emergency for topping up) and multigrade oils, specification VW 501 01 (for turbocharged diesel engines only in mixtures with specification VW 505 00).
