Warnings and Cautions

WARNINGS
Some repairs may be beyond your capability. If you lack the
skills, tools and equipment, or a suitable workplace for any
procedure described in this manual, we suggest you leave such
repairs to an authorized dealer service department or other
qualified shop.
Do not re-use any fasteners that are worn or deformed in normal

use. Many fasteners are designed, to be used only once and
become unreliable and may fail when used a second time. This
includes, but is not limited to, nuts, bolts, washers, self-locking
nuts or bolts, circlips and cotter pins. Always replace these
fasteners with new parts.
Never work under a lifted car unless it is solidly supported on

stands designed for the purpose. Do not support a car on cinder
blocks, hollow tiles or other props that may crumble under
continuous load. Never work under a car that is supported solely
by a jack. Never work under the car while the engine is running.
If you are going to work under a car on the ground, make sure
that the ground is level. Block the wheels to keep the car from

rolling. Disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal (ground
strap) to prevent others from starting the car while you are
under it.
Information
General
Never run the engine unless the work area is well ventilated.
Carbon monoxide kills.
Rings, bracelets and other jewelry should be removed so that

they cannot cause electrical shorts, get caught in running
machinery, or be crushed by heavy parts.
Tie long hair behind your head. Do not wear a necktie, a scarf,
loose clothing, or a necklace when you work near machine tools
or running engines. If your hair, clothing, or jewelry were to get
caught in the machinery, severe injury could result.
Do not attempt to work on your car if you do not feel well. You
increase the danger of injury to yourself and others if you are
tired upset or have taken medication or any other substance that
may keep you from being fully alert.
Illuminate your work area adequately but safely. Use a portable

safety light for working inside or under the car. Make sure
the bulb is enclosed by a wire cage. The hot filament of an
accidentally broken bulb can ignite spilled fuel, vapors or oil.
Catch draining fuel, oil, or brake fluid in suitable containers. Do

not use food or beverage containers that might mislead someone
into drinking from them. Store flammable fluids away from fire
hazards. Wipe up spills at once, but do not store the oily rags,
which can ignite and burn spontaneously.
Always observe good workshop practices. Wear goggles when

you operate machine tools or work with battery acid. Gloves
or other protective clothing should be worn whenever the job
requires working with harmful substances.
Greases, lubricants and other automotive chemicals contain

toxic substances, many of which are absorbed directly through
the skin. Read the manufacturer's instructions and warnings
carefully. Use hand and eye protection. Avoid direct skin contact
Disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal (ground strap)

whenever you work on the fuel system or the electrical system.
Do not smoke or work near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep
an approved fire extinguisher handy.

Friction materials (such as brake pads or shoes or clutch discs)
contain asbestos fibers or other friction materials. Do not create
dust by grinding, sanding, or by cleaning with compressed air.
Avoid breathing dust. Breathing any friction material dust can
lead to serious diseases and may result in death.
Batteries give off explosive hydrogen gas during charging. Keep

sparks, lighted matches and open flame away from the top of the
battery. If hydrogen gas escaping from the cap vents is ignited,
it will ignite gas trapped in the cells and cause the battery to
explode.
Connect and disconnect battery cables, jumper cables or

a battery charger only with the ignition switched off. Do not
disconnect the battery while the engine is running.
Do not quick-charge the battery (for boost starting) for longer

than one minute. Wait at least one minute before boosting the
battery a second time.
Do not allow battery charging voltage to exceed 16.5 volts. If

the battery begins producing gas or boiling violently, reduce the
charging rate. Boosting a sulfated battery at a high charging rate
can cause an explosion.
The air conditioning system is filled with chemical refrigerant,

which is hazardous. The A/C system should be serviced only
by trained technicians using approved refrigerant recovery/
recycling equipment, trained in related safety precautions, and
familiar with regulations governing the discharging and disposal
of automotive chemical refrigerants.
Do not expose any part of the A/C system to high temperatures

such as open flame. Excessive heat will increase system
pressure and may cause the system to burst.
Some aerosol tire inflators are highly flammable. Be extremely

cautious when repairing a tire that may have been inflated using
an aerosol tire inflator. Keep sparks, open flame or other sources
of ignition away from the tire repair area. Inflate and deflate the
tire at least four times before breaking the bead from the rim.
Completely remove the tire from the rim before attempting any
repair.
Some cars are equipped with a supplemental restraint system

(SRS) that automatically deploys airbags and pyrotechnic seat
belt tensioners in the event of a frontal or side impact. These

are explosive devices. Handled improperly or without adequate
safeguards, they can be accidentally activated and cause
serious injury.
Information
General
The ignition system produces high voltages that can be fatal.
Avoid contact with exposed terminals and use extreme care
when working on a car with the engine running or the ignition
switched on.
Place jack stands only at locations specified by manufacturer.

The vehicle lifting jack supplied with the vehicle is intended for
tire changes only. A heavy duty floor jack should be used to lift
vehicle before installing jack stands. See 010 General.
Battery acid (electrolyte) can cause severe burns. Flush contact

area with water, seek medical attention.
Aerosol cleaners and solvents may contain hazardous or deadly

vapors and are highly flammable. Use only in a well ventilated
area. Do not use on hot surfaces (engines, brakes, etc.).
Do not remove coolant reservoir or radiator cap with the engine

hot. Danger of burns and engine damage.
CAUTIONS
If you lack the skills, tools and equipment, or a suitable workshop
for any procedure described in this manual, we suggest you leave
such repairs to an authorized dealer or other qualified shop.
Before starting a job, make certain that you have all the
necessary tools and parts on hand. Read all the instructions
thoroughly, and do not attempt shortcuts. Use tools appropriate
to the work and use only replacement parts meeting original
specifications. Makeshift tools, parts and procedures will not
make good repairs.
Use pneumatic and electric tools only to loosen threaded parts

and fasteners. Never use these tools to tighten fasteners,
especially on light alloy parts. Always use a torque wrench to
tighten fasteners to the tightening torque specification listed.
Be mindful of the environment and ecology. Before you drain the

crankcase, find out the proper way to dispose of the oil. Do not
pour oil onto the ground, down a drain, or into a stream, pond or
lake. Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State and
Local laws.

The control module for the anti-lock brake system (ABS) cannot
withstand temperatures from a paint-drying booth or a heat
lamp in excess of 203F (95C) and should not be subjected to
temperatures in excess of 185F (85C) for more than two hours.
Before doing any electrical welding on cars equipped with ABS,

disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal (ground strap) and
the ABS control module connector.
Always make sure ignition is off before disconnecting battery.
Label battery cables before disconnecting. On some models,

battery cables are not color coded.
Disconnecting the battery may erase fault code(s) stored

in control module memory. Check for fault codes prior to
disconnecting the battery cables.
If a normal or rapid charger is used to charge battery, the battery

must be disconnected and removed from the vehicle in order to
avoid damaging paint and upholstery.
Do not quick-charge the battery (for boost starting) for longer

than one minute. Wait at least one minute before boosting the
battery a second time.
Connect and disconnect a battery charger only with the battery

charger switched off.
Sealed or "maintenance free" batteries should be slow-charged

only, at an amperage rate that is approximately 10% of the
battery's ampere-hour (Ah) rating.
Do not allow battery charging voltage to exceed 16.5 volts. If

the battery begins producing gas or boiling violently, reduce the
charging rate. Boosting a sulfated battery at a high charging rate
can cause an explosion.

1) Engine Oil: Only use oils meeting VW oil quality standard VW502 00. If VW502 00 is not available you may use oil (synthetic preferred) meeting either ACEA A3, A5 or B5; API
SL; or ILSAC GF-3 for topping off only (not more than 0.5 qt/ltr). Do not overfill! Overfilling engine oil can cause misfire DTCs to be stored in ECM (J220). To prevent overfillling, add
approx. 0.5L less than capacity, start engine and let run until engine operating temp. is approx. 60oC (140oF), turn OFF ignition, wait approx. 3 minutes, check dipstick, then fill to
MAX. Viscosity 5W40, 5W30 or 0W40.
2) Automatic Trans: New fill quantities are for reference only. Only replace after repair (i.e., when removing oil pan). See RM for details. See ETKA for oil fluid specifics.
3) Differential Automatic Trans: See ETKA for oil fluid specifics. 09G: Capacity included w/auto transmission.
4) Cooling System: Use phosphate-free coolant G 012 A8F A4 [G12+ (purple), Valvoline G12 (purple) is really G12+). Note the following mixing combinations: G11 (green) & G12
(pink) no; G11 & Valvoline G12 ok; G11 & G12+ ok; G12 & Valvoline G12 ok; G11 & G12 & G12+ no; G11 & G12 & Valvoline G12 no. Frost protection is required down to
o o o o
approx. -25 C (-13 F). In countries with arctic climates, frost protection is required down to approx. -35 C (-31 F). The anti-freeze ratio must be a minimum of 40%, otherwise frost
protection is reduced. The recommended mixture ratio is 50:50. If greater frost protection is required (very cold climates), the amount of G 012 A8F A4 can be increased, but only up
o o
to 60%. This provides frost protection to approx. -40 C (-40 F). Do not reduce the coolant concentration by adding water, even in warmer seasons/countries, as cooling effectiveness
will be reduced.
5) Power Steering: Hydraulic oil G 002 000. Do not use ATF. Do not reuse drained fluid.
6) Brake Fluid: Use new brake fluid in accordance with US Standard FMVSS 116 Dot 4. See ETKA for fluid specifics. Always siphon some brake fluid from reservoir before replacing
brake pads. Refer to Warnings and notes in RM brake section, before working on hydraulic system.
7) A/C Refrigerant Oil: Use PAG oil, Part No. G 052 300 A2, with R-134a.
note: Part numbers are for reference only. Always check with your Parts Dept. for the latest parts information.

Bearing Shells
The upper bearing shells are allocated to the cylinder

block with the correct thickness from the factory.
Colored spots serve to identify the bearing thicknesses.
The letters marked on the lower sealing surface of the
cylinder block identify which bearing thickness must
be installed in which location. If color markings can no
longer be read, use the blue bearing shell. The lower
crankshaft bearing shells are always shipped as
replacement part with yellow color marking.
