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

Re: What oil for Tiguan TDI
Owners manual clearly states 505-01 for the 103kw.
Did the service today. Was extremely easy, not much different than servicing my Polo.
