1.8 16v kr service, HELP PLEASE

so i thought a little service was in order.

does anyone know:

what grade oil to get?
how much should i put in? (filter change too)
and a part number for the filter would help too?

cheers guys

it'll probably tell me in my Rado handbook but it's in the car (i'm guessing mine is the same engine), if you dont get an answer i'll look it up for you

cheers mate. be heading of out soon to get the stuff so. i was really hoping Lee was about!

for a quick answer, lol

just looked thru booklet and it doesn't say........have you googled it..?

I use 10/40 oil in mine

when asking for oil filter, just say its for a mk2 golf 16v kr. Its the same as most other older engined veedubs.

I'd stick 2 and half litres in then check the dipstick for level

not 100% sure my dipstick is for the car
thats why i asked

oh and whats the battery type?

size ect?

10/40 is o.k. and it takes 3.5 ltrs

cheers guys, now off to get the bits

hope they can tell me the battery

if you look at the top of the battery it will say something like: 063
that is the battery code
write down all the info off of the battery

I got a new battery the other day for mine

As i running a 9a, i used an 075

cheers guys, got the 075
