Engine oil specificationsThe engine of your vehicle has been fact
ory-filled with a high-grade oil which you
can use throughout the year - exce
pt in extreme climatic regions.
You can mix various oils together with each other when refilling with oil. This does not, however, apply for models with
flexible service intervals (QG1).
Engine oils are, of course, undergoing co
ntinuous further deve
lopment. Thus the
information stated in this Owner's Manual is only correct at the time of publication. Authorised Škoda Service Partners are informed by Škoda Auto about current changes. This why you should always have
engine oil changed by an authorised
Škoda Service Partner. The specifications (VW standards) stated in the following must be indicated sepa- rately or together with other specifications on the bottle. Engine oil specifications for models with flexible service intervals (QG1)
Engine oil specifications for vehicles with fixed service intervals (QG2) If the oils specified above are not available,
oils according to ACEA A2 or ACEA A3
can be used once for refilling. If the oils specified above are not available,
oils according to ACEA B3 or ACEA B4
can be used once for refilling.
Caution
Only the above-mentioned oils may be used on vehicles with flexible service inter-vals (QG1). We recommend always refilling with oil of the same specification since this will maintain the properties of the oi
l. In exceptional cases, you must top up
only once engine oil complying with Specification VW 502 00 (only for petrol engines) or Specification VW 505 01 (only for diesel engines) to maximum 0.5 litres. You must not use other engine oi
ls - risk of engine damage!
Note
•
Before a long drive we recommend th
at you purchase and carry with you
engine oil which complies with the specif
ication for your vehi
cle. Consequently,
you will always have the corr
ect engine oil for refilling.
