I recall previously seeing a link to a PDF detailing an oil change on an A2 tdi.

I have run a search and spent 1/2 an hour looking for it with no luck.

Could anyone please provide a link?

Cheers.
 
clubsport,

Are you requiring anything specific? I can't remember seeing a PDF detailing an oil change, but the princaple is the same as any oil change.

1. Run engine until warm
2. Turn off engine and remove under tray
3. Remove bonnet
4. Remove drain plug (sump nut)
5. Remove oil filter
6. Once old old has drained fit new sump plug
7. Fit new oil filter
8. Add about 4lts of new correct spec oil
9. Start engine and run on tick-over until warm
10. Stop engine and check for oil leaks
11. Let engine rest for 5 minutes
12. Check oil level on dipstick and add as necessary (500mls at a time)
13 Re-fit under-tray
14. Re-fit bonnet
15. Time for a brew

For the TDi AMF engine the following applies
36mm 6 point (Hex) Socket required to remove the oil filter cap, tightning torque is 25Nm
Sump plug thightning torque is 30Nm

If you need anything else just ask.

Cheers

Jeff

Hi all, reviving this old post with a question. I’m doing an oil change on my FSI tomorrow and the above steps set out by Jeff are exactly what I had in mind as the sequencing. But I read earlier in a different post that the oil filler pipe should be disconnected aswell. Does that need to be done?
 
Following up on my own question in case anybody searches for this in future, the oil filler pipe is dead easy to disconnect at the top and if you don’t disconnect it then it’s basically impossible to get your wrench in to remove the filter.
