Scirocco Central

Oil was just below the bottom A line on the dip stick. I found it difficult to see when topping up. I put in a little less than 400ml. It was up to the full mark on one side of the dip stick yet it looked over filled on the otherside. Am I worrying because it was just dragging up oil when withdrawing.

Dip stick at level:

A - Oil must not be replenished.

B - Oil may be replenished. It may happen that the oil level afterwards is in the -A- region.

C - Oil must be replenished. It is sufficient if the oil level is in the -B- region (hatched area) afterwards

Erm, you have most likely overfilled it slightly cos it didn't need it in the first place. As its not a lot, I would leave it.

C.

As above you've probably slightly overfilled.

Min to Max on the dipstick is approx 1 litre. Personally I always add oil 250ml at a time and then recheck

Thanks both, I'll dip it again tomorrow morning when the engine is cold.
