Danger | Risk of death caused by vehicle slipping or toppling off of the lifting platform. | Align vehicle between vehicle lift columns and position the four support plates at the vehicle lift support points specified by the vehicle manufacturer. | |
Warning | Risk of injury. Skin or eye injuries may result when handling hot or glowing objects. | Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses, if necessary. | |
Warning | Risk of accident from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. | Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. | |
Caution | Risk of injury to skin and eyes due to handling of engine oil. Risk of poisoning caused by swallowing engine oil | Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses. | |

1 | Remove lower engine compartment lining | ||
| Check | ||
2 | Check outside of engine for oil loss. | ||
Notes on evaluating leakages | |||
If oil loss is present, | |||
| |||
determine cause and correct. | |||
After obtaining special order. | |||
3 | Perform engine oil and oil filter change. | If 1000 km has been driven since last engine oil change. | |
| |||

4 | Lower vehicle. | ||
5 | Remove the oil dipstick from the guide tube. | ||
6 | Insert the remote thermometer into the guide tube. | Remote thermometer | |
7 | Start engine and warm up to operating temperature. | Operating temperature is achieved at approx. 80 °C engine oil temperature. | |
8 | Switch off engine. | ||
9 | Remove remote thermometer from the guide tube. | Remote thermometer | |
10 | Install the oil dipstick in the guide tube. | ||
11 | Drain engine oil. | ||
| Engine oil and oil filter change | ||
Collect engine oil with a suitable container. | |||
12 | Place drained engine oil with container on a scale and weigh. | Note weight of engine oil and kilometer reading of vehicle. | |
13 | Add drained engine oil. | ||
| Engine oil and oil filter change | ||

14 | Install lower engine compartment lining. | ||
15 | Perform engine oil consumption measuring drive. | Measurement distance of measuring drive by workshop personnel is 250 km under consideration of customer's vehicle operating conditions. | |
16 | Read out fault memory with vehicle diagnosis system. | ||
| Connect/disconnect diagnostic unit | ||
If stored faults exist | |||
| |||
Erase the fault memory. | |||
17 | Remove vehicle diagnosis system. | ||
18 | Drain engine oil. | ||
| Engine oil and oil filter change | ||
| |||
Collect engine oil with a suitable container. | |||
19 | Place drained engine oil with container on a scale and weigh. | Note weight of engine oil and kilometer reading of vehicle. | |
20 | Calculate weight difference by subtracting the weight of the engine oil after the measuring drive from the weight of the engine oil before the measuring drive and note down. | ||
21 | Calculate measurement distance by subtracting the kilometer reading before the measuring drive from the kilometer reading after the measuring drive and note down. | ||
22 | Determine oil consumption. | Calculation of oil consumption over 1000 km: | |
The oil consumption may be max. 0.5 l after the oil consumption measuring drive. | |||
If oil consumption > 0.5 l, | |||
| |||
determine cause and correct. | |||
After obtaining special order. | |||
If oil consumption 0.5 l, | |||
| |||
Correct engine oil level after filling in the drained engine oil. | |||
