SERVICE TYPE CHANGE INTERVALS

All other vehicles up to ►2012 Every 15,000 km or 1 year
All other vehicles as of 2013► Oil change service / interval service according to service
interval display
22) A new engine oil filter must be installed each time the engine oil is renewed.
23) Only applies to diesel engines: in some countries, diesel fuel has an elevated sulphur content. The high sulphur content leads to
excessive wear of cylinders and it considerably reduces the cleanliness of pistons. Therefore, in countries with elevated sulphur content
in diesel fuel, change engine oil and fuel filter every 7,500 km. Your importer will inform you about countries with elevated sulphur content
in diesel fuel.

3.1.3 General notes

♦ Regulations concerning towing must be observed.
♦ Both drivers must be familiar with special considerations when
towing. Inexperienced drivers should not attempt to tow start
or tow.
♦ If using a tow rope, the driver of the towing vehicle must en‐
gage the clutch very gently when driving off or changing gear.
♦ The driver of the vehicle being towed must ensure that the tow
rope is always taut.
♦ The hazard warning lights of both vehicles must be switched
on unless national regulations differ.
♦ The ignition must be switched on so that the steering wheel is
free and the turn signals, horn and windscreen wiper and
washer can be used.
♦ Because on vehicles without ABS the brake booster only func‐
tions when the engine is running, considerably more pressure
is required on the brake pedal when the engine is not running.

Maintenance - Edition 10.2015

♦ On vehicles with power assisted steering, more force is re‐

quired to turn steering wheel when engine is not running.
♦ When there is no lubricant in a manual gearbox or automatic
gearbox, the vehicle may only be towed with driving wheels
lifted.
♦ On vehicles with a catalytic converter, the engine must not be
started by towing the vehicle over a longer distance when the
catalytic converter is at operating temperature, otherwise fuel
may pass into the catalytic converter and may burn. This can
lead to overheat the catalytic converter.

Reason: If vehicle is towed with rear suspended, the drive shafts
turn backwards. The planetary gears in the automatic gearbox
then turn at such high speeds that the gearbox will be severely
damaged in a short time.
Notes on vehicles with all-wheel drive:
♦ The vehicle can be towed in the same way as a two-wheel
drive vehicle.
♦ Using a breakdown vehicle the vehicle may be towed suspen‐
ded at front or rear.
If the vehicle has to be towed suspended at rear and the rear
wheels cannot turn freely, ensure that the freewheel in the rear
axle has not been bridged beforehand by driving vehicle in re‐
verse. To reintroduce the freewheel action the gear lever must be
moved briefly into first gear with ignition on and then back into
neutral.

♦ Feathering on tread indicates incorrect toe setting.
♦ One-sided tread wear is mainly attributed to incorrect camber.
If wear of this nature is detected, determine cause by checking
alignment (repair measure).

4.9.3 Tread depth (including spare wheel):

Checking
– Check tyre tread depth.
Minimum tread depth: 1.6 mm

Note

cardiagn.com
♦ This figure may vary according to legislation in individual coun‐
tries. Please contact importer for details.
♦ The minimum tread depth is reached when the tyres have
worn down level with the 1.6 mm high tread wear indicators
-arrows- positioned at intervals around the tyre.
♦ If the tread depth is approaching the minimum permissible
depth, the customer should be informed.

WARNING

♦ Brake fluid must under no circumstances come into con‐

tact with fluids containing mineral oils (oil, petrol, cleaning
solutions). Mineral oils will damage seals and sleeves of
brake system.
♦ Brake fluid is poisonous. In addition, due to its corrosive
nature, it must not come into contact with paint.
♦ Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it attracts moisture from the
surrounding air and therefore must always be stored in air-
tight containers.
♦ Wash away spilt brake fluid using plenty of water.
♦ Do not reuse extracted (used) brake fluid.
♦ Observe disposal regulations!

4.10.2 Brake fluid specification

Permissible brake fluid specifications:

cardiagn.com
♦ Brake fluid conforming to US standard FMVSS 116 DOT 4
(previous brake fluid)
♦ Brake fluid conforming to VW standard, VW 501 14 (new brake
fluid).

wear limit:

“At MIN. marking or just above” “REPLENISHING IS NOT RE‐

QUIRED”.
• Recommended brake fluid level when brake pads are new or
well within pad wear limit:
“Between MIN and MAX marking”.

WARNING

If fluid level is below MIN marking, the brake system must be

checked before fluid is topped up, “Repair measure”

After the engine oil has been changed and the oil filter has been

renewed, observe the following when starting the engine for the
first time:
♦ The engine must only run at idling speed as long as the oil
pressure warning lamp lights up in dash panel.
♦ Do not rev up!
♦ The full oil pressure is not attained until the warning lamp has
gone out, only then can the engine be revved up.

Caution

If the engine is revved up the turbocharger can be damaged or

fail completely. Since the turbocharger runs at very high
speeds, the bearings may fail within seconds in the event of
inadequate lubrication.
If leaks, vibrations and unusual noises are encountered on the
turbocharger, immediately switch off the engine.

The tyre pressure monitoring warning lamp - K220- is in the dash

panel insert -arrow-.
After changing the tyre pressures or after changing one or more
wheels, the following adaption must be performed:
– Connect vehicle diagnosis, testing and information system -

Tyre pressure sensors must only be renewed on “tyre pressure
monitoring system” with PR number 7K3. The “tyre pressure
monitoring” system offered alternatively with PR number 7K6, has
no tyre pressure sensors. The tyre pressure monitoring compares
the speed and the rolling circumference of the individual wheels
via the ABS sensors.

With immediate effect, use only windscreen clear - G 052 164- to
fill the windscreen wash/wipe system throughout the year.

Note

♦ Windscreen Clear - G 052 164- protects the spray jets, fluid

reservoir and connecting hoses from freezing.
♦ For all vehicles having fan-type spray jets, the reservoir must
be filled with Windscreen Clear - G 052 164- , as this fluid has
a low viscosity at temperatures below freezing. Otherwise the
complicated spray jet system can become blocked by the
crystallised washer fluid, which affects the spray pattern of the
spray jet. Windscreen Clear - G 052 164- ensures that the fan
type spray jets remain fully functional also at low tempera‐
tures.
♦ Replenish Windscreen Clear - G 052 164- also in the warmer
periods of the year. The powerful cleanser removes wax and
oil residue from the glass.
♦ Frost protection must be guaranteed to approx. -25 °C (ap‐
prox. -35 °C in countries with an arctic climate) in the washer
system.

♦ Every other time the wiper motor is switched off, it moves to a

reverse-park position, which ensures that the wiper blade is
switched to the other direction.
♦ To do this, the wiper motor runs downwards into park position
and then slightly upwards again. This reverse-park position
must not be used for adjusting or checking the wiper crank.
♦ When checking, use the normal park position, not the reverse-
park position. If necessary, operate touch-wipe function again.

4.58 Transportation mode: Switching off

Note

♦ The transportation mode is responsible for assuring the start‐

♦ Battery discharging is reduced by the transportation mode,
because electrical consumers are switched off.
♦ All vehicle functions which are not necessarily used during
vehicle transportation and require no-load voltage or battery
capacity are switched off with the activated transportation
mode, with regard to the service life of battery.

♦ These are especially all functions in the vehicle which can re‐
duce the battery capacity when being misused.
♦ Examples are radios, electronically operated flaps and attach‐
ments and anti-theft alarm systems which can produce faults
during transportation. agen

with output stages) must be regreased with G 052 141 A2. This
ensures that the rubber hose does not become fused to the ce‐
ramic.

– Screw in new spark plugs using spark plug wrench - 3122 B-

and tighten to 20 Nm.

– Apply a thin bead of spark plug connector grease - G 052 141

A2- on the circumference of the sealing hose of the pencil-type
ignition coil -arrow-. The grease bead must be 1 to 2 mm thick.
– Insert ignition coils with output stages into the cylinder head
and align ignition coils to the respective recesses of cylinder
head cover.

cardiagn.com
– Press ignition coils with output stages onto the spark plugs as
far as the stop until they noticeably latch in.

Note

Ensure that the cable guide for ignition coils with output stages is
routed correctly.
