Suggestion
Out of interest when changing oil and filter do you bother to remove the drain plug from each Turbo oil container and drain or do you take the view that it is such a small amount and that it does not matter.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Going to change oil shortly, can anyone give me some info on this task? Also do i need any special tools etc? cheers guys.

POST 2Original post

Drop me an email, and I'll attach the instructions to a reply. I would suggest changing the filter while you are doing it.

POST 3Original post

Out of interest when changing oil and filter do you bother to remove the drain plug from each Turbo oil container and drain or do you take the view that it is such a small amount and that it does not matter. Just interested in peoples views as not sure myself.

POST 4Original post

Baz - I hope you were thinking about a Tiptronic ATF change, not an engine oil change........ Eddie - To be honest, I don't bother with the Turbo oil tanks if I'm doing it myself (between services). Firstly, the plugs are a pig to get out. The other thing is that the system holds 12.5 litres, but the change quantity (the most you can drain out) is 8.5 litres. Therefore, the small amount the turbo tanks hold is insignificant.

POST 5Original post

Thanks Richard - that is what I thought but it is good to know I am on the right track.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
