Engine Oiling System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1984 Volkswagen Rabbit, 1984 Volkswagen Quantum, and 1984 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Gear-type oil pump provides oil for pressure feed to crankshaft journals, camshaft bearings, and intermediate shaft. Heavy-duty oil filter and revised oil pump drive are used in Diesel. Other lubrication characteristics are similar to spark ignition engines.

CAUTION: On Turbo-Diesel models, use only oil that is rated "CD" by API-System.
