Re: [T3] oil level

["Dave Hall" <dave@hallvw.clara.co.uk>]

The red band on my (twin carb) cleaner is on the vertical face of
the inner 'shelf', but I'm not sure where it is on the FI one.  I
don't think it's that critical.  The owner's handbook says 0.40
litres (= 14 fluid ozs, 0.7 pt Imperial; 0.9 pt US) for the 1600,
and 0.25 litre (= 9 fluid ozs, 0.44 pt Imperial,  0.55 pt US) for
the 1500.

Dave.

Yeah, this is poorly documented.  I have never seen anything that
gave a really good explanation, but I have always filled to the top
of the "step" that goes around the outer lower corner.
