Yeah I know what you mean but surprisingly I went in about 2 weeks ago and they got a 5 litre bottle and put about 400ml in and cost me nothing and was done on the spot

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Originally posted by hainsey View PostHahahahaha wow. Who told you that, it is part of the owners maintenance listed in the owners manual to do a weekly check on tyre pressure, washer bottle and engine oil
When picking up the R the person told me to, "drive it like you own it" and while ambiguous I have chosen to drive it according to the owner's manual...

It's somewhere in between 'babying it' and 'redlining it'

^ This, bring it to temperature and then give it the beans (having said that avoid super "high" revs).
BTW, Mikey1's and my R's ship docks today in Melbourne. Should have our rigs in 2/52
(btw, great find on that review Sergio, another win for the R!)

I used to check it often but it lasts almost the entire 15,000kms/1 year between services. Plus I can see a number value representing how much oil I have on the dash. So I check it when I refill the windscreen washer bottle or just before a big trip.
