2.1.1 Service identification
– Referring to vehicle data sticker, check if vehicle is equipped
with following PR numbers:
The PR number is decisive for the service intervals
⇒ page 8 .
Vehicle ID with PR number
Model year PR number Service
2016 ► QI6 Flexible service
2016 ► QI1, QI2, QI3, QI4, QI7 Fixed service
In the past, the PR numbers QG0, QG1 and QG2 determined the
type of service.
With immediate effect, these PR numbers only denote whether
an engine oil level sensor is installed or not and no longer have
an influence on the oil change interval.
2.1.2 Flexible service
The flexible service enables long service intervals, depending on
individual driving style and the conditions under which the vehicle
is used.
Note
For the flexible service a special LongLife engine oil is required
⇒ page 8 .
Vehicles with production control number “QI6” are set up for flex‐
ible service at the factory. This means, these vehicles have a
flexible service interval display and are fitted with the following
components:
♦ Flexible service interval display in dash panel insert
♦ Engine oil level sensor
♦ Brake pad wear indicator (if fitted)
For vehicles with flexible service the service interval is determined
by the control unit and is indicated on service interval display
(SID) ⇒ page 6 .
Therefore the service intervals are flexible.
