Can anyone please confirm if the 210PS engine requires the same oil grades as the old 200PS. The handbook states 'data not yet available' for 210PS oil grades. Useful!

The type of oil you need depends on which VW servicing plan your car is on, Time and Distance or Long Life. They use different specs of oil, the Long Life oil spec is alot more expensive. Your dealer should be able to tell you which regime you're on from your registration number through the VW data base.
