Fitting location: in front of gear lever in centre console

The shock absorber damping adjustment button -E387- sets the system to three different modes:

• Standard
• Sport
• Comfort

The operating sequence is -Normal- > -Sport- > -Comfort- > -Normal- > …
In the shock absorber damping adjustment button -E387-, the fields -Sport- and -Comfort- are back-lit with a yellow function LED when the selection of the corresponding mode is active.
When -Normal- mode is selected, the shock absorber damping adjustment button -E387- is not illuminated.

There are two new VW standards for oils, 504.00 for petrol powered engines and 507.00 for diesel powered engines. Introduced in late 2005, whilst these are seperate standards every oil made to date has meet the requirements of both standards. Hence why VW refer to the standards as 504.00/507.00.

All VW petrol and diesel engines with the exception of the Touareg R5 and V10 diesels with pump nozzles can use these new oils.

Volkswagen 501.01/505.00 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 502.00/505.00/505.01 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 502.00/505.00 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 505.01 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 503.00/506.00 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 503.00/506.01 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 503.01 Approved Oils

Volkswagen 504.00/507.00 Approved Oils

List of the most common VW standards

• VW 500.00 – VW spec for multigrade engine oils for petrol engines with SAE 5W-X/10W-X viscosity for engines built up until August 1999 (MY 2000).
