Hi my 2021 VRS petrol needs a top up. Struggling to find out which grade it requires. Can anyone help please?

 

Thanks

Is there any invoice for the last Oil Change Service to show they used the correct oil so that you are topping up with the same.

(Just incase some place maybe went with 5w 30 or 0w 30 FS, which is VW504 00 ?)

 

It should not be a struggle to find the correct spec.

 

You require to VW 508 00 / 509 00  which is 0w 20 FS IV.     

 

   VW508 00 for a TSI from around 2018 when Skoda / VW changed from VW 504 00 / 507 00,  5w 30 FS III so that they got the WLTP results needed.

great thanks - had a look under bonnet this am and it confirms this is what I need. 

I fished round and purchased some Manol stuff from Ebay that met the VW spec thinking it was a good saving, where in fact the dealer price for the genuine stuff was only a couple of pound dearer anyway. If you buy from the dealer they will use your reg to get the correct spec oil.

Having just had my '21 vRS serviced, the oil the dealer used was Castrol EDGE Professional LL IV FE 0W-20 

Got a 1ltr bottle for topping up for £8.50 at EuroCarParts. Meets the spec. Why pay more?
