Using VAGCOM to check oil level - what value?
« on: 17 December 2013, 20:07 »
In VAGCOM module 1 (engine) the measuring block 009 can be used to check the oil level. Anyone know the value for a MK 6 GTI TSI. I know the value for the 1.4 is 51mm.

Any help welcome.

Yes, normally but when I do a 6 month service - oil and filter change, I usually do a quick VCDS diagnostic check and check other items in the measuring blocks such as battery voltage, it is just as convenient to do it this way so if you know the value that would be a useful response!
