YesGo to your VW Dealer and ask for some Hydraulic fluid G004 000.500ml = £7.This is the fluid recommended by VW for use in its cabriolet pumps.

Guest tmatthews Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hi Is there any sort of bleeding to do when you fill from empty The roof hasn't been down all year and the oil must have leaked out plastic bowl is empty. Any advice would be much appreciated. Trev... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshlad Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 unscrew valve key on the side of the pump and manually push it down and up 3-4 times then screw key valve shut that will sort it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
