Get the 8000 lb version of these. They work great for the low clearance of the Jetta. You can get them at most auto parts or discount chain stores.ssamalin said:I I'm getting wheel stands and changing it in a parking spot, possible?
Jason, I believe you underfilled your customer's car. As far as I've searched (Bentley forums, Tdiclub forums, local UK forums) I found that BRM (also his Eropean twin brother BLS) takes 4.5 quart of oil if you don't suck out the oil cooler and do a bottom drain. If you suck the oil from oil cooler too, then you have to fill with 4.75 quart of oil.jasonTDI said:Drain from the pan and filter replacement without emptying the oil cooler is 4 qt's to the middle of the hatch marks. I usually fill 4.25 since customers don't check....ever.

Do you know what oil capacity is for BEW?
The reason I'm asking is that 4 quarts is quite low. Here in Europe (almost) all PD engines with flat tappets take at least 4.5 quarts per book. However, BKD engine (which is 2.0 TDI-PD 16v and use roller type followers [and of course doesn't suffer the cam wear problem although have others]) take exactly 4 quarts.
Might that be one of at least few factors why BRM suffers cam failure?

Look at how many people here put 4.5-4.7 quarts.40X40 said:It is funny because you always seem to find a guru or someone of many years experience to try to correct or 'wonder' about whether they know what they are talking about.
The people I am talking about have impeccable credibility here. Now, these people are not infallible, but they have long glorious track records... which you, umm, don't.
Therefore: ROTFLMAO
