Draining or pumping out engine oil
On engines with a vertical oil filter, the oil filter must be replaced before changing the oil. When the filter element is removed, the bypass valve opens and the oil in the filter housing drains into the oil pan.
To remove oil from the engine, follow these steps:
1. Pump out the engine oil using an oil pumping device or unscrew the drain plug and drain the engine oil.
Please note: The oil drain plug is fitted with a non-removable sealing lip and must be replaced.
2. Screw in the new drain plug by hand and tighten to the specified torque. Tightening torque of the drain plug: 30 Nm.
Replacing the oil filter
Replacing the oil filter on engines with the BGU letter designations (1.6 l, gasoline, 75 kW, 102 hp), BSE (1.6L, petrol, 75 kW, 102 hp until 05.2005.), BSF (1.6 l, petrol, 75 kW, 102 hp since 06.2006.), BSX (2.0 l, gas, 60 kW, 109 hp)
To replace the oil filter, follow these steps.
1. Unscrew the oil filter (arrow) from below using a puller or oil filter wrench.
2. Clean the contact surface on the oil heat exchanger.
3. Lightly lubricate the rubber seal of the new filter with engine oil. This ensures the best possible sealing of the connection after tightening the filter.
4. Tighten the filter by hand.
Replacing the oil filter on engines with the letter designations BSA (1.4 l, petrol, 55 kW, 75 hp until 05.2006.), BUD (1.4 l, petrol, 59 kW, 80 hp, since 05.2006.)

To replace the oil filter, follow these steps.
1. Lubricate new O-rings before installation.
2. Do not allow oil to come into contact with components and parts in the engine compartment.
3. Loosen the oil filter (arrow), preferably from below, using an open-end wrench (32 mm), and remove the oil filter.
4. Clean the contact surface on the engine.
5. Lightly lubricate the rubber seal of the new filter.
6. Screw the filter onto the fitting and tighten it by hand.
Further installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal.
Replacing the oil filter on engines with the BDJ letter designations (2.0 l, SDI.51 kW, 70 hp), BJB (1.9 L, TD1, 77 kW, 105 hp), BLS (1.9 l, TD1.77 kW, 105 hp), BST (2.0 l, SD1.51 kW, 70 hp), SSU(1.9 L, TDI, 55 kW, 70 hp)
To replace the oil filter, follow these steps.
1. Lubricate new O-rings before installation.
2. Unscrew the cap (arrow) using a socket wrench (S = 36 mm). Before draining or pumping out engine oil, remove the cap to allow the oil to drain from the filter housing.

3. Clean the contact surfaces of the oil filter cover and housing.
4. Replace the filter element.
5. Replace the sealing rings.
6. Screw in the cap (arrow) and tighten it to a torque of 25 Nm.
Further installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal.
Filling the engine with oil
General instructions
After the oil has been poured in, you should wait at least 3 minutes and then check the oil level.
To fill the engine with oil, you need to do the following.
Remove the dipstick, wipe it with a clean cloth, and then reinsert it until it stops. Then remove the dipstick again and check the oil level (see the section "Checking the engine oil level").
Motor oil
Motor oil tolerances for vehicles serviced and not serviced according to the Longlife regulations.
Gasoline engines
| With Longlife service (OG1) | |
| Gasoline engines | VW approvals |
| 4-cylinder | 504 00, as an alternative to 503 00 |
| Without Longlife service (OG0/QG2) | |
| Gasoline engines | VW approvals |
| 4-cylinder | 504 00, as an alternative to 501 01/502 00 |
Diesel engines
| With LongLife service (QG1) | |
| Diesel engines | VW approvals |
| 4-cylinder (with pump injectors and without a diesel particulate filter as standard equipment) | 507 00 or 506 01 |
| 4-cylinder(with pump-injectors and with a serial diesel particulate filter)* | 507 00 |
| Without LongLife service (QG0/QG2) | |
| Diesel engines | VW approvals |
| 4-cylinder (with pump injectors and without a diesel particulate filter as standard equipment) | 507 00, as an alternative to 50501 |
| 4-cylinder (with pump-injectors and with a serial diesel particulate filter)* | 50 700 |
* For engines with pump injectors and diesel particulate filter as standard equipment (assembly code 7GG) only use engine oil that meets VW 507 00 standard.
On vehicles intended for servicing under the LongLife regulations (assembly code OG1), but for vehicles serviced at mileage- or time-based service intervals, the service indicator must be recoded to a "non-flexible" mode.
