Only use engine oils:
QGO, QG2
Specification VW 505 01 or VW 505 00 (oil according
to VW 505 00 cannot be used for TDI PD - engines)
Oils may be intermixed when topping up.
In exceptional cases:
Multigrade oils according to ACEA B3 or B4. Such oils
must only be used once for topping up within the speci-
fied oil change interval if, in exceptional cases, no ap-
proved engine oil is available.
QG1
Specification VW 506 01 or VW 506 00 (oil according
to VW 506 00 cannot be used for TDI PD - engines)
–Close the oil filler opening again.
–Start engine and check for leaks.
–Check the engine oil level again and top up with oil if
necessary.
–Wait at least 3 minutes after topping up the oil again
before inspecting the oil level again.
–Install the noise insulation.
The oil level must not be above the -max- marking to
avoid damage to the catalytic converter. See Inspecting
engine oil level ⇒02-3 page 8.
Inspecting antifreeze protection, replen-
ishing coolant additive if necessary
♦Collect drained coolant for proper disposal.
♦Observe the disposal instructions for the drained cool-
ant.
Special tools, test and measuring equipment and
auxiliary items required
♦Refractomer -T10007-
Inspecting antifreeze protection of the coolant
♦The refractometer -T10007- may, for example, be
used for inspecting the antifreeze protection of the
coolant.
Note
WARNING!
Coolant additives are toxic!
Do not inhale coolant vapours, do not swallow
coolant, avoid contact with skin and eyes; haz-
ardous if consumed!

–Perform a test drive and again check the coolant anti-
freeze protection.
Inspecting coolant level (volume)
–The coolant expansion reservoir is located on the right
of the engine compartment.
–Inspect coolant level only when the engine is not run-
ning.
Specified coolant level for the Inspection Service:
•Engine cold: between„MAX“ and „MIN“ marking.
•Engine warm: slightly above the „MAX“ marking.
♦The cooling system is filled all year round with a mix-
ture of water and antifreeze/anti-corrosion agent.
Coolant additives prevent damage from frost and cor-
rosion and the accumulation of lime scale while also
raising the boiling point of the coolant. For these rea-
sons the cooling system must always be filled all year
round with radiator antifreeze and anti-corrosion
agent offering these properties.
♦Coolant additive G12 - red in colour, complying with
standard TL VW 774 D, must not be mixed with other
coolant additives which comply with standard TL VW
774 C(B) -bluish-green in colour-. If these two coolant
additives are mixed the coolant will turn brown. Brown
coolant must be drained immediately, the cooling sys-
tem flushed out with drinking water and filled with
fresh coolant. If this is not done the engine and cooling
system may suffer damage. Engine Coolant capacity
1.2 ltr./40 kW and 1.2
ltr./47 kWapprox. 5.1 ltr.
1.4 ltr./55 kW and 1.4
ltr./74 kWapprox. 5.5 ltr.
1.0 ltr./37 kW; 1.4 ltr/

–Press set button -1- and hold and simultaneously
switch on ignition.
–Release set button -1- and turn to the right.
All counters are reset.
–Switch off ignition.
♦For vehicles with the dash panel insert 6Y0 920 xxx x,
the SID with the set button -1- cannot be reset before
a service is required.
♦The fact that the correct oil quality cannot be entered
in this way means that this value will be set to 1 when
resetting the set button (low quality) and the service
interval with a fixed oil change limitation will be activat-
ed.
Changing the code of the service inter-
vals
Service intervals are sub-divided into two types after cod-
ing of the dash panel insert:
WIV with variable service intervals for changing
the oil (QG1)
Service intervals with flexibly set message lengths. Here
the character of the vehicle operation, the condition of the
brake linings and the oil level are monitored. The oil must
conform to the standards VW 503 00, VW 506 000 or VW
506 01.
WIV with fixed service intervals for changing the
oil (QG2)
Service intervals with fixed set message lengths for 1
year or 15 000 km. The oil level is, however, measured
with the oil sensor and the condition of the brake linings
is monitored. This version is usually set when no oil is
used which is not of the required quality.
Change service interval type
♦Every change of the coding of the dash panel insert
which is associated with the service intervals must be
entered into the service schedule for the vehicle.
♦The changes to service intervals with fixed limit for oil
change (QG2) on WIVs with variable service intervals
(QG1) can only be undertaken on the basis that the
vehicle was originally fitted with WIV at the works and
one exclusively only uses engine oil in a quality which
is in accordance with the standard for WIV.
♦The changes made from QG1 to QG2 can be under-
taken independently of the setting up done at the
worts.
An example of changing from QG1 to QG2:

Test and setting conditions
•Tyre inflation pressure O.K.
•Lenses must neither be damaged nor soiled.
•Reflectors and bulbs O.K.
•Vehicle load must be achieved.
Load: With an individual or 75 kg on the driver's seat in an
otherwise unladen vehicle (dead weight).
The unladen weight is the weight of the vehicle with full
fuel tank (at least 90 %) including the weight of all the op-
erational equipment elements (e.g. spare wheel, tool kit,
jack etc.).
The vehicle must have rolled a few metres or have been
depressed a few times at the front and rear to allow the
springs to settle.
•Both the vehicel and headlight beam setting device
must be on a level flat surface.
•Align the vehicle and headlight beam setting device in
accordance with the device manufaturer's indications.
•Check the control system of vehicles equipped with
headlight beam control by repeatedly turning the
thumbwheel in the dash panel. Then turn the thum-
bwheel to basic position.
•Set the inclination value.
Inclination value:
The inclination value is marked in „%“ at the top of the
headlight housing. The main headlights must be set to
this value. The percentage value applies up to 10 metres
projection distance. This will be 12 cm for an inclination
value of e.g. 1.2 %.
Inspecting headlight beam setting and adjusting
if necessary
Main headlights:
–Check whether the horizontal light/dark limit touches
the separation mark -1- on the test surface when the
low beam light is on .
–Check whether the kink -2- between the left horizontal
part and the ascending right part of the light/dark limit
intersects with the central mark -3- on the vertical line.
The light core of the light beam must be located to the
right of the vertical line.132
