Oil Change Service every 15.000 km1) (QG0)
An Oil Change Service need only be carried out if the vehicle has covered 15 000 km before one year has
elapsed1). If the Oil Change Service is due only a few months prior to the Annual Inspection, it is recommend-
ed to carry out the Annual Inspection at the same time.
Annual Inspection (every 12 months) (QG0)
1)The 7500 km interval applies for diesel operation with high sulphur content - it does not apply for the Czech Republic (for further information
refer to Technical Service Handbook)
Work involvedChapter

Inspecting thickness of front and rear
brake pads/linings
Front disc brake pads:
For a better assessment of the residual pad thickness re-
move wheels. Do not mix up wheels (mark).
–Release the wheel bolts and remove wheel.
-a- - the wear limit is reached at a pad thickness of 7 mm,
including the base plate.
If the thickness of the pad is less than 7 mm including
base plate, always replace the brake pads on both sides
(repair measure)
–Fit on wheels in the marked position and tighten the
wheel bolts to 120 Nm.
After replacing the brake pads depress brake pedal firmly
several times when the vehicle is stationary to ensure the
brake pads are properly seated in their normal operating
position.
Rear disc brake pads
For a better assessment of the residual pad thickness re-
move wheels. Do not mix up wheels (mark).
–Release the wheel bolts and remove wheel.
-a- - the wear limit is reached at a pad thickness of 7.6
mm, including the base plate.
If the thickness of the pad is less than 7.6 mm, always re-
place the brake pads on both sides (repair measure)
–Fit on wheels in the marked position and tighten the
wheel bolts to 120 Nm.
After replacing the brake pads depress brake pedal firmly
several times when the vehicle is stationary to ensure the
brake pads are properly seated in their normal operating
position.
Rear drum brake linings
–Inspect the thickness of the brake linings through the
inspection holes in the brake carrier plates.
–The wear limit is reached at a lining thickness -a- of 5
mm, without supporting shoe. If a wear case exists, al-

ways replace the brake linings on both sides (repair
measure).
Avoid soiling from brake fluid or grease flowing out.
Inspecting brake system for leaks and
damage
–Inspect master brake cylinder, brake servo unit (for
ABS: hydraulic unit), brake pressure regulator, brake
calipers for leaks and damage.
–Inspect brake hoses for twisting.
–Ensure that the brake hoses do not touch any parts of
the vehicle when the steering is turned to full left or full
right lock.
–Inspect the brake hoses for porous and brittle points.
Inspect the brake hoses and brake lines for chafing
points.
–Inspect the brake connections and attachments to en-
sure they are correctly fitted, free of leaks and corro-
sion.
Changing brake fluid (every 2 years)
Special tools, test and measuring equipment and
auxiliary items required
♦Extraction device
♦Brake pedal support, e.g. - V.A.G 1869/2-
Use only fresh genuine brake fluid FMVSS 571.116 DOT
4.
–Unscrew cap -1- from the brake fluid reservoir
Note
WARNING!
Any defects found must be rectified (repair meas-
ure).
WARNING!
Brake fluid must never come into contact with
fluids containing crude oils (oil, petrol, cleaning
agent). Crude oils damage the gaskets and
boots of the brake system.
Brake fluid is toxic. Because of its caustic effect
brake fluid must not come into contact with
paint.
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs mois-
ture from the surrounding air . Therefore it
should always be stored in airtight containers.
Wash any parts stained with brake fluid with
large volumes of water.
Observe the disposal instructions!

–Remove strainer and clean.
–Use extraction device -1- to extract as much brake flu-
id as possible from the brake fluid reservoir.
–Fill the brake fluid reservoir with new brake fluid.
Vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox
–Fit hose of extraction device -Arrow- onto the bleeder
screw of the master cylinder -1-.
–Open the bleeder screw and by depressing the clutch
pedal allow approx. 0.1 litre of brake fluid to flow out.
–Secure the clutch with the brake pedal depressor, e.g.
-V.A.G 1869/2- in bottom position.
–Tightne bleeder screw and remove the hose.
–Put the clutch pedal in home position.
All vehicles
When changing the brake fluid it is necessary to replenish
the brake fluid reservoir with brake fluid.
–Fit hose of extraction device -1- onto the bleeder
screw of the rear right wheel.
1)
–Open the bleeder screw and by depressing the brake
pedal allow approx. 0.2 litres of brake fluid to flow out.
–Secure the clutch with the brake pedal depressor, e.g.
-V.A.G 1869/2- in bottom position.
–Tighten bleeder screw and remove the hose.
–Put the brake pedal in home position.
WARNING!
Drained (used) brake fluid must never be used
again.
