    Oil capacity help

    Greetings.

    I have a 2013 Tiguan diesel (103kw) and am about to do a long trip.

    I purchased a VW507 00 compliant oil (Mobil) as I do not know what manufacturer used. Need to have my own top up oil.

    I would like to do its first oil change and the manual is silent on engine oil capacities.

    How much oil does this Tiguan diesel engine take with filter?

    Thank you.

    We use Castrol oils here at HP/F and the manual states 4.0 litres. I'd start with that and check
