Notes:
In an emergency, if you must add oil and cannot find one that meets the required Volkswagen oil quality standard, you may add a maximum of 0.5 liters (0.5 quarts) of an engine oil that meets the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA) A3/B4 and American Petroleum Institute (API) SN specifications, with a Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) 0W-20 viscosity grade. Using an oil with a different viscosity grade can increase vehicle emissions and fuel consumption, so it should only be done in emergencies.
