Howdy fellas!
First I would like to thank you all for having me in the TDIclub! This is a highly recomended site, Thanks! And thank you all who helped me with some other questions here: http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=343443 THANKS!
OK, I want to change the oil and filter, fuel filter and air filter. I think the Previous Owner (PO) used synthetic oil in it before.
Should I continue with Synthetic oil?
What grade oil should I use (DC area)?
How much oil does it hold?
What kind of filter/s should I use?
Are there any tricks to perform these simple tasks?
What else should I do?
Are there any modifications you all recomend?
The vehicle has 180K miles and I don't know the history of the timing belt so I want to change it as soon as I save enough to have it done. I hhave been told that there are special tools/calibration machine needed to do this task so I think I am going to let the stealership handle it....hopefully with in the next 3 months.
Thanks in advanced for the replies and thanks again for being here!
