Going to do an oil change before I sell the Inca, but don't quite get what specification oil to put in the thing. The handbook says the following:
Multigrade oil with specification VW 505 00 (appropriate for Diesel engines,
*except* engines with a pump injector).Multigrade oil with specificati Diesel engines with a pump injector system must *exclusively* use multigrade oil with specification VW 505 01. For these engines do not use any other oil other than the one with specification VW 505 01. Danger of damage to the engine!
To purchase this special oil, contact a SEAT Official Service Center.
At my local SEAT dealer I asked for oil and they said they don't stock oil and just to go to Halfords or similar.
So, which one do I use????? It looks like VW 505 01 is suitable for all cases, but the 505/00 stuff seems to be more common, so if it's ok to use that I'd rather do so. What does it mean by a "pump injector" system? AFAIK pretty much all diesel systems use some form of injector pump, or does it mean something else that I'm missing??
Also, it's got one of those funny environmentally friendly oil filters (where it's just the filter itself, not the casing as normal, bit like an air filter) - how do I change that? Is there some form of screw top that I unscrew and the old filter just drops out, or what?
