What oil for Tiguan TDI

Post by Deranged_9n3 »

Hi guys

So it’s about time I do the first service on my Tiguan TDI ( 103kw vatiant ) and would like to know what oil to use. Is it the same 505.01 spec we use on the PD motors or would it be another spec. I always use Castrol Edge Prof on my PD TDi, and would like to use the same oil in my Tiguan if the spec is right.

TIA

Owners manual clearly states 505-01 for the 103kw.

Did the service today. Was extremely easy, not much different than servicing my Polo.
