Hello, I have Skoda Yeti 2015, 1.6TDI Greenline, was wondering if anyone know how much engine oil it takes? I read 3.6l but want to double check it 

 

Thank you in advance 

Peter 

The owners manual says 4.3L, which I'm expecting also includes the oil filter content.

That normally would be your starting point. 3.5Lt

After draining properly with a hot/warm engine, refit drain bung & fill.

Start engine, wait for oil light to go out. Let it stand for a few minuets, then check the level. Top up accordingly.

You did fit a new oil filter?

 

What oil are you using?

Service fill is listed as 4.3L by Comma.
As above, stick 3.5L and go make a brew while it settles... check and top-up.
One thing I would say, if it is the same engine as the Golf Mk6  (I think it is), the oil can take some time to drain down, so be patient and top it up slowly.


 

I use a suction pump from Lidl to get oil out, only takes 5 minutes when warm and pumps it straight into an empty container so no mess to clear up and saves taking the undertray off.

Is the suction pump electric or hand operated, I have not seen one in Aldi before.

Usually plenty in Lidl, about £12, crocodile clips from battery, oil wants to be warm not up to full temperature.

Thank you that looks very neat, we always pumped oil out from machines to avoid the mess

and make recycling easier.
