BurntOut 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Just wondering what the VR6 should be idling at, mine seems quite low at around the 500 mark??? Also she seems to be goin through oil, was wondering what I should put in it, eg semi/full synthetic etc. Also the interior roof really needa a good clean anyone recom any good cleaning products to bring it back up to clean again? After your guidance you knowlegable people, (I have only just got the VR6). Cheers Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted January 26, 2007 650 rpm is around the right mark, but they do fluctuate a little. Personally I'd go semi-synth. 'Interior Valet'- think it's by CarPlan or something similar is great- my headlining looked like new after using it. It comes with a plastic brush thing attached. Can get it from Halfords etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A1 VR6 0 Posted January 26, 2007 VW's own quantum silver semi-synthetic is top oil for the money - think about £15 from dealer but you can get it cheaper if you shop around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziderapple 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Vr's do get through a bit of oil, unless its using loads I shouldnt worry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
